Which part of a toilet tank assembly is the supply valve for water to the tank?
That is a fill valve and is part of the ballcock system. When someone pulls the lever, that pulls the chain and lifts the flush valve flapper and empties the tank into the bowl. That causes the float to drop, opening the fill valve and allowing water from the supply to enter and refill the tank.
How do you replace the diaphragm in a toilet?
Diaphram? I'm not sure what part you are talking about. Normally replace the fill valve with a Fluidmaster 400a, new supply line, and the flapper with the proper one for your toilet.
What is the best way to repair a leak in a water supply line for a toilet?
To repair a leak in a water supply line for a toilet, first turn off the water supply to the toilet. Then, identify the source of the leak and determine if it can be fixed by tightening connections or if a replacement part is needed. If a replacement part is required, such as a new supply line or a seal, purchase the necessary materials and follow the manufacturer's instructions for installation. Finally, turn the water supply back on and check for any remaining leaks.

What causes water to spurt and run inside an 8 year old kohler toilet tank?
typically these two problems are caused by two different things. A running toilet is most commonly caused by a leaking flapper (when you push down on the flush handle a chain lifts the flapper and lets the water escape the tank and "flush' into the bowl.) a water spurt is usually caused by a faulty fill valve (the part in the tank that attaches to the water supply and fills the tank after it is flushed.) with an 8 year old toilet both of these parts would most likely be worn out, either thru age or use.

Why would a toilet fill up with hot water when flushed?
If it is a new house, the plumbers hooked it up to the hot water supply--this actually happened to me once! Otherwise, it may be really hot outside and the water has been warmed before coming into the house.
How much water does a low flush toilet save a month?
If the toilet works each time on one flush, they use roughly half the water of a standard toilet. You would then use half as much a month on the toilet. They do not always flush completely on the first flush and the toilet is only a part of the water bill.
What is the purpose of the top part of a toilet and how does it contribute to the overall functionality of the toilet?
The top part of a toilet, called the tank, holds water that is used for flushing waste down the bowl. When the toilet is flushed, the water from the tank rushes into the bowl, pushing waste through the pipes and out of the toilet. This process helps maintain cleanliness and hygiene in the bathroom by removing waste efficiently.

Why won't the water run through the under-the-sink filters?
Filter plugged, some have a shut off valve as part of the filter, mineral build up at the shut off valve in the supply line or in older pipes the pipe itself can be filled with minerals.
