For a few dollllars more than your standard tank replacement valve, get this unit. It promises a few key benefits, and delivers on them.
Some of the features advertised on this unit are standard with a normal valve:
1. Setting the amount of water that fills the tank - this is done the same way as a normal kit, by adjusting the height of the float with a screw - easy as cake.
2. Water savings on a flush - this is a bit debateable since any new fill valve will save water over what's wasted by a broken one.
Some of the unique features offered by this kit:
1. Easy installation - No tools required and took me about 10 minutes to install, and I was pretty careful. Totally painless.
2. Calibrating the amount of water that goes into the bowl through the fill tube - This is the best reason to buy this kit. With a simple lever you can adjust the fill amount to a reasonable level. My toilet was from 1984, and wasted a lot of water by overfilling the bowl every time. The amount of water I save with just this adjustment will pay for the kit in no time.
3. Fill lock - This isn't fancy but it gets the job done. it's a small piece of plastic that allows you to lock the pump in the "off/raised" setting and prevent the tank from refilling while you are adjusting the flapper, changing the pump height, or whatever else you need to do.
I haven't had a chance to use the leak detection feature yet (and hopefully won't ever have to).
Overall I think this kit is great, offering a lot of extras you won't find on a normal repair kit. The high level of adjustability will likely offset the higher cost of this kit in the long run. Highly recommended.
My one recommendation is to check out MJSI's other 2 kits offered on this site, depending on what accessories you want. The MJSI HC660 HydroClean Water-Saving Toilet Fill Valve with Cleaning Tube offers this valve with a nifty little tube to clean the junk out of the tank, and the MJSI HFX120 HydroFix HFX120 Water Saving Toilet Fill Valve and Flapper Kit offers the cleaning tube and a flapper. The pricing is close on each model so just pick the one that works best for you.
