I have the same problem. I have the American Standard Dual Flush (two buttons on top to prevent overuse of water for liquid waste).There HAS to be a way to install this thing. I've Googled it repeatedly and haven't found any solutions.

Hi Lisa, well I have good news for you, I decided to call the factory to make sure I didn't give you bad info. They're in production with this toilet for a very long time, turns out it's quite popular. I need two more of them myself so it was good to know it'll be around a long time. Every part is available for this toilet so don't go my those numbers, use the name of the toilet and the manufacturer if you should need parts because when I checked using just the numbers online nothing came up.

If you have a one piece Kohler toilet, you have to remove the existing seat fasteners. Mine we rusted beyond use so I drilled the bolts out. Using the anchor kit noted, replace seat fasteners following the instructions. Make sure the bolts are reasonably tight before remove the bolt holder arm. Retighten without the arm to complete the process. Good luck!

The only way to answer the question is to go to the Kohler website and use their support.Look up your model toilet number, which is inside your tank. Mine is stamped inside; yours may be somewhere else on the toilet. When you look up your model there is a breakdown diagram of all the parts for your model.See if the number is the same or if the part number is a substitute that works well. This part is attached to the bottom of the cannister to prevent leaks that make your toilet run.If you put it in right, you will not hear it run any more. My model toilet is K-4493 AA, by the way.I hope this was helpful to you.

Seems to be a tough answer as the actual toilet the unit is attached to is likely completely different. Ours works and is positioned just fine.

If you want to be certain, check model number of your toilet. On American Standard fixtures it is usually "pressed" into ceramic on the inside of water tank. This lever is a 4" corner flush handle, 45 degree angle, but closer to 8" long. Fits American Standard model# 4072 (and probably others too). American Standard customer support number is 1-800-442-1902 .

Hi Leon, it wasn't that difficult. If my memory serves me correctly (it was over a year ago I replaced this part) the directions were either included with the part or I got them from the toilet manufacturer website. I think it may have been the latter.I do know is was more difficult working around the small area the toilet is located in the bathroom.

I don't think it matters. you just take your old seat off and put this one on. It has the regular seat with the child seat inside of it. It fit onto our American Standard toilet. no problem

I have a new FlushMate replacement unit here next to me. The instructions say the following: "Flushmate systems cannot retrofit into gravity-type toilets." So I assume your regular tank is a traditional gravity toilet--if so, according to manufacturer, it will not work. Hope this helps.

If even if it does fit I would change the toilet out. We had the original 3 for 8 years. They leaked. We replaced and those 3whic only lasted 2 years. The design has a very high rate of failure for the 503 series. Last week we changed those out for an Advantage Gerber model and avoid another flood. Their customer service is virtually non-existentant. Lots of lawsuits againts the 503 series!

Call Danco at 800.523.5135. They have outstanding customer service. I experienced it when I spoke to a technician (Tim) and he was great. This product works great by the way. I am very pleased and changed installed these on two toilets.

I've had no problems at all---works like a charm. I love it. Now, I'm amazed at how long other toilets take to flush---all that water gone. But, mine is used with the American Standard toilet--don't know why that would make a retrofitted not work right, though. Maybe you just got a bad one.

Sorry, but I don't know. We had a plumber install the toilet and as my bathroom is very very tiny, I never saw what was done. But we do love the new toilet as it is high and easier to use.

Hi Wayne, I'm not expert on toilets or parts. I was able to replace the guts of two Kohler toilets with this canister valve, and either my numbers matched up exactly or I eyeballed it from the photo and was confident enough to give it a try. Can't offer much beyond that -- both toilets work fine now though! Good luck.

I have 2 of these obnoxious Kohler one piece toilets. The biggest pain was removing the original anchor/screw. Here is the video of how to do that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsMyRGf2Agk You will need a piece of plywood and a crow bar . You can then use this set for the new seat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OlCjBBAg7I
