Abstract
A kit for calibrating an amount of water required by a toilet with an amount of water to be supplied to the toilet has a first recorder for determining an amount of water in a toilet bowl, a second recorder for determining an amount of water in a toilet tank if the water in the toilet bowl reaches a determined level, and a valve for setting an amount of water delivered to the tank if the water reaches a determined level in the tank.

A kit for calibrating an amount of water required by a toilet with an amount of water to be supplied to said toilet, said kit comprising:
- a first recorder to determine an amount of water in a toilet bowl;
- a second recorder to determine an amount of water in a toilet tank if said water in said toilet bowl reaches a determined level;
- and
- a regulator to regulate an amount of water delivered to an overfill tube if said water reaches a determined level in said tank.
A method for setting an amount of water in a toilet tank comprising the steps of:
- using a first recorder to determine an amount of water in a toilet bowl;
- using a second recorder to determine an amount of water in a toilet tank if said water in said toilet bowl reaches a determined level;
- and
- regulating an amount of water delivered to an overflow tube if said water reaches a determined level in said tank.
A kit for calibrating an amount of water required by a toilet with an amount of water to be supplied to said toilet, said kit comprising:
- a gauge to selectively measure an amount of water in a toilet bowl;
- and
- an overfill regulator to limit overflow from the toilet bowl, the overfill regulator comprising a cylindrical body having an opening to be associated with an overfill tube, a dial supported by the cylindrical body and being selectively adjustable to a calibrated setting that is determined based on the amount of water in the toilet bowl measured by the gauge, and a regulator to regulate an amount of water delivered to the overfill tube if the water reaches a determined level in the tank that corresponds to the amount of water in the toilet bowl.
