  1. John

    The permafit silicone seal has 2 small bubbles in it and no longer seals

    After several years of trouble-free operation, our HydroRight flush valve started leaking water into the bowl. I tried-positioning, re-installing, cleaning everything, etc……but nothing stopped the leak. The leak rate for draining the tank varied from 3 hours to 8 ...Read More

    • Danco (store manager)

      Good Morning Mike,
      We are sorry to hear that you have recently had some trouble with the HYR270. Normally when an issue like this arises there are several reasons the water could be leaking into the bowl. There could be a broken zip tie, blisters on the blue dome gasket ...Read More

    If you have any “Do It Yourself” ability at all, you can install one of these without any trouble. Once adjusted properly, these things will absolutely save on your water bill.

  5. Jerry Schweinhart

    I installed this dual flush valve and the Hydroclean fill valve in 3 toilets about 6 years ago. All had been working flawlessly until recently one of the flush valves would not do the quick flush unless we held the button in. I tried the troubleshooting tips but that did not...Read More

  6. Vincent

    Hi, recently, the two buttons of my HYR270 HydroRight became so heavy to push, it’s almost impossible for children to do so. I started to investigate and realized that when the tank is empty, there is no problem at all and everything works like a charm. However, when the...Read More

      Good Afternoon Vincent,
      We are sorry to hear about the situation you are in. Sometimes products fail for a variety of reasons no matter what we do to try and salvage the problem. We unfortunately do not sell an internal seal separately. If you could reach out to our Prod...Read More

    seal stopped working in less than 2 months. kept draining small amounts of water. had to replace the whole thing, and since you have to change the handle, I had to replace that also.

      Good Afternoon Jose,
      Thank you for taking the time to provide this valuable feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced as we know it can be frustrating when a product does not perform as intended. Please be assured this is not typical of our produc...Read More

  8. William Rigali

    I love the concept of having 2 options for water conservation. I installed 4 of these units in our home. Two seem to be working fine. After about 6-8 months usage, 1 of the units began leaking water and causing the toilet to refill the tank. Now a second unit is doing the same...Read More

      Good Morning William,

  9. Phil in Oregon

    I had seen dual flush toilets a lot in Europe and was excited to install this one by Danco. Installation was tricky because the tank was narrow. Unfortunately, every few minutes it releases a little water with a brief flushing sound. The “troubleshooting” section o...Read More

  10. Larry Johnston

    I have a similar experience as noted by others…the blue silicone dome seal material has developed a blister which prevents a proper seal and allows water to pass by making the toilet “auto-flush” every hour. Not the water saving I bargained for!

  11. T

    Installed one in both toilets several years ago, but found the ziptie failed/weakened and changed it out with screw pipe clamps.. continued working.

  12. dilip

    it makes whistle noise non stop, i had to turn off water valve, after water fills up, plz tell me how to fix it, this product is great

    • Danco (store manager)

      Good Morning Dilip,
      Thank you for your reaching out to us. We apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced. It seems as if there might be debris in the fill valve causing a vibration. To correct this, please try the following:
      1. Turn off the water at the ...Read More

  13. Carol Harshman

    Love it while working, but mine is also leaking into the bowl. ?

  14. Rick Brewer

    I have installed these on all three toilets at home and, for the most part, they work well. Two of them, though, both HYR270, flush fine but refill painfully slowly. Typically takes 10 or more minutes to refill the tank so they are ready for another flush.
    Any ideas on h...Read More

  15. Joe

    I installed a Hydro Right 7 years ago (before the thing had a model#), and now it seems the blue silicone gasket no longer seals correctly. I love the fact that I have saved a lot of water over the years, but I don’t feel good about having to throw a bunch of plastic in...Read More

  16. Mary

    It worked good for about the first year. After that it didn’t seem like the small flush was any different than the big flush. Now I’m having the same problem as Vincent, March 2017 – the button for the small flush is extremely hard to push and has to be hel...Read More

  17. Mary

    PS. If I could, I would switch to the dual flush lever handle instead of the button. At this stage, it would definitely be easier to operate.

  18. DarrenR

    Tried several ways to get this to stop running and so far they have all failed. It worked great for a little while, and I like having the dual flush. Right now we have a hose clamp holding it in place and that is working better than without it.

    • Danco (store manager)

      Good Morning Darren,
      Thank you for choosing Danco/MJSI products. We apologize for the difficulty you have experienced. It seems like the flush valve might not be seating correctly.

    I installed this in our spare bathroom that is only for one week a year when mother in law visits. I discovered that it was flushing and wasting water randomly. this does not save water! I shut off the valve to stop the water to the toilet. I think I am going to put the Fluid...Read More

  20. Ralph Bloom

    About a year ago I installed 2 of these in our home, along with 1 more in my sisters bathroom and all 3 had been working great. Recently one of my units developed a small leak into the bowl, so I took it all apart to clean and check the seal at the bottom. After seeing no obvi...Read More

  21. Ralph Bloom

    Since I can’t find anybody in my area that still carries this product line and I’m told you folks have no repair parts, I guess I’m just stuck with 2 of the 3 units leaking because of flat gasket or seals that look like they have the measles and not fixable.<...Read More

  22. Derrick Y.

    Just wanted to give kudos to the Danco customer service department for their great service.

    I have two HydroRight dual-flush converters installed on the older toilets in my house: one was purchased in 2010 (made by MJSI) and the other was purchased in 2015 (a Danco-bran...Read More

    After trying some troubleshooting steps on my own (such as reseating the housing, adjusting the float, rotating the overflow tube cam, replacing the zip tie), I contacted Danco to get some advice. I reached an agent named James who didn’t beat around the bush. He said that the newer HydroRight was clearly defective, so he immediately offered to ship us a new one. We received it within a week and it has been working perfectly since then.

    So, I only have good things to say about Danco’s support. The service was quick and courteous, and they obviously stand behind their products. I am a happy customer.

    Install the HYR271 four months ago (handle model) . It was working great, saving water. But now when you flush, either the1 or 2 option on the handle, it doesn’t come back up, so the water keeps running as the valve doesn’t shut. I have to manually pull the handl...Read More

  25. Wesley S

    Installed this three years ago and didn’t have any issues. But the gasket has a leak now and I don’t know where I can find a replacement gasket. Luckely I have another one for another toilet I wanted to install this in, so I have a replacement for the short term. B...Read More
