Water enters the toilet through a supply line connected to the home's Plumbing system. When the toilet is flushed, a mechanism called the flush valve opens, allowing water from the tank to rush into the bowl, creating a siphoning effect that removes waste. After flushing, the tank refills with water from the supply line through a fill valve, which stops when the tank reaches a certain level. This cycle ensures the toilet is ready for the next use.
