Very clever plumbing component
Added 2025-05-11 00:01:47 +0000 UTCAnother refreshing break from electronics to look at something much wetter.
This is a very clever universal float valve with lots of neat features.

Toilet manufacturers seem to ship cheaper options with toilets. Here, that small side outlet is hooked to a small plastic tube that points down the overflow tube, which goes to the small outlets around the rim of the toilet bowl, so that whenever the tank is filling, it's still running a little water down the bowl sides for extra cleaning/rinsing.
