Do I need to replace the old fill valve to keep the same water level at the bowl?

The fill valve usually has a float the governs the water level. You do not need to replace it, but for my toilet I had to set it to the max level for this to function correctly.

Just pull your old junk out & it slides right in. It has 2 adjusters on it for both flushes easy to setup what is pictured is what you'll need minus the vertical overflow tube which is already in the tank. This item fits right where the flapper is. & mine works Great.

You need both a diverted valve and a temperature control valve. That is two different valves that need to be plumbed correctly.

It was very simple to replace. You just need to close off the water supply valve and open up the dispenser at your sink until no more water comes out. The bladder in the old tank is probably damaged so there will still be quite a lot of water left in the tank. Remove the tank and turn upside down in your sink until all the water is gone. Then, just hook up the new tank to the same connections as was used on the old tank. Turn the water back on and let the tank gradually refill with the RO water. Open up the dispenser and empty the new tank at least one time before using.

Save yourself some money and just replace the black rubber water valve. Carefully remove the old one. To replace the new one (which will not come with instructions) put a little soap around the rim and it will pop in with little effort.

I don't know if it will fit. I had a very old Koehler fill valve with a brass stem. I just questimated that it will fit and thank god it was a perfect replacement. Only thing is the new valve is completely plastic and I hope it will last.

No. It drains much better than my old one. There are holes in the entire bowl area, just not on the rim/footing. A little tip when draining releases any trapped liquid.

Yes, the previous unit started to leak and I replaced it with another. The present unit is working fine.

I don't think so. One night ours was making a nasty noise and i realized the water level was below what it should have been. I was glad it did though since mine is in the garage and that way i knew it was time to clean the unit and add more water.

You can do it but you have to be quick to change out the valves. Best thing I can tell you is remove the old and immediately install the new valve assembly without attaching the hoses. Make sure the valves are in the closed position. I did mine this way and was able to keep the water loss fairly minimal.

Mine wasn't seated good and was letting a small amount of water leak into the bowl. Once it's gets low on the float you hear the tank filling back up. That's the only way I would think of it alarming you.

I elevated mine. Is it necessary? Prob not. I put an extra spigot below the original one because the original one is quite hi. It leaves a lot of unused water in barrel.

I did it awhile back, but it was remarkably easy. Took 5 minutes once I had the unit off the floor and cleaned up. As I recall, you just pull the old one out and install the new one. Water stay's in the bowl for weeks now, instead of minutes before the replacement. Sorry I can't be more specific and detailed. Don't be afraid of tackling it. Anyone can do it.

I tried repair kits but were not long term solutions. I finally replaced fill valve complete unit and is working like new.

For me, there was a small leak in the valve assembly when you flushed. Replacing the valve took care of this

I do not know for certain, but I am guessing that the plumbing for RV toilets has not changed much in the last few decades. I would give it a shot and check that the base will match up. If per chance it does not, you can probably fabricate some type of adapter plate made of UHMW white plastic. If the base matches up, then the next task is to check if your existing water supply hose is long enough to fit the new model. I had to get an adapter extension for my installation. Best of luck.

You do need a check valve. Its best practice to put a new check valve if you are replacing sump pump

It's just a simple compression fitting and should work without any issue on the replacement. I'd use the same hoes and the new fittings. You should be fine. If you drilled new holes I expect keeping the old holes from leaking would be an issue sooner or later.
