MJSI’s HydroRight dual-flush converter easily and inexpensively transforms your standard toilet into a water- and money-saving appliance (view larger) . Saving Water and Money
Central to dual-flush technology is the water savings that can be realized by a quick-flush setting using lower water volumes for liquids and paper. A second, full-flush setting uses the standard amount of water for solids. Industry experts agree that four out of five flushes require only the amount of water used in the quick-flush setting—meaning 80 percent of flushes waste money and water on all toilets that are not dual flush. An independent study found that the HydroRight showed average water savings of 30 percent, with some instances reaching up to 50 percent. Not only does the HydroRight help to preserve natural resources, it also proves to be more economical than purchasing an entirely new dual-flush toilet, which can cost upward of several hundred dollars. The Case for Dual-Flush Technology
Arriving first as dual-flush toilets, more recent plumbing innovation has produced dual-flush converters that retrofit existing toilets into dual-flush systems. The HydroRight converter includes a two-button handle that gives users the ability to select the amount of water being used during the flush: the quick flush for liquids and paper and the full flush for solids. Adjusting the water flow for both flushes is quickly and easily done inside the tank thanks to the HydroRight. In addition, because the HydroRight’s dome gasket sits in the drain hole rather than a flapper, problems associated with flappers—like leaks and broken or tangled chains—are eliminated. The USEPA estimates that 20 percent of all toilets leak up to 200 gallons of water a day (the equivalent of 73,000 gallons a year), mostly because of faulty flappers. Not with the HydroRight: To install, remove the old flapper and handle, slide dual flush down the overflow tube inside your tank and tighten, and replace the handle with button and set the quick-flush amount. No more jiggling the handle to flush properly. Industry-Leading Innovation

Deepak Mohanty –
This product has a design flaw. It depends on the overflow tube for a secure seal with the flapper opening. The flushing mechanism has a cylindrical adapter that goes around the overflow tube. In my case, the distance between the axis of the overflow tube and that of the flapper opening is large enough that the cylindrical adapter instead of helping create a tight seal, does exactly the opposite. It creates a gap and water continuously leaks. I have a 3-D printer and some silicone adhesive. I am tempted to come up with a fix.

Just a replacement for an 11 year old unit that the handle broke and wasn’t available separately. Swapped out in a couple of minutes and was flushing perfectly as it should. If you have a handle style toilet and want to run a dual flush, this is the ticket.
Nisha –
It’s is great product it’s save my water bill
Stephen Gannon –
Fastest toilet repair I’ve ever performed.Very easy to install with minimal effort. Toilet kit works great.

After installation my monthly water bill decreased $50 a month bill had been same for years it really shocked me with the amount of the difference i only picked it because I was tired of the cheap rubber ones that last only a year or two
Mr Michael J. –
I bought the danco dual dlush thinking rhis will save water and be a good technical addition to my money saving arsenal of products we use in my house. I have followed the directions, looked at youtube videos and nothing keeps the seat from weeping wver so slowly. Secondly the twi flush button thst is supposed to flust small for one drop and full flush for two drops, oushes the exact same distance no matter which button. Don’t but this product. Im sure the engineers had a good idea originally, but China totally screwed this up. I only spent 25 bucks for the thing, but im going bqck to a tried and true flapper unfortunately. Maybe I’ll invest in a toto for satisfaction. It leaks when the tank fills and the seat does not leak when monitored at the angled face it sits in either. Id give it a minus star if it was an option. Piece of junk Chinese plastic.

replacing old one use it in 2 toiletsi like the 2 flush

I installed this on a Kohler toilet that had a single flush pull knob on the top of the tank. I had to use a Dremel to slightly enlarge the whole on the top by maybe a 16th of an inch. After that the assembly was easy only taking a couple of minutes to complete and it works perfectly.
Dixie land –
you can set the level in the toilet tank to what ever level you desire thus saving water
JJ –
If you have problem with toilet flush keep flushing itself, this is the answer. very easy to install.
Chitose3 –
Easy to install and adjust. Works very well, but you must follow the installation instructions.
miller –
Easy to install and no toilet constantly running
Alvin –
As many reviews pointed out, plastic handle. I, for one, was willing to give this on a try. Unfortunately, it wasn’t compatible with my tank configuration.
Debra –
We have used the handle half flush version of this ( and actually had ordered that and not the push button one we received ) and it was great. This one requires more pressure to flush, is noisier, and if you are about to get a clog you won’t see it— because you have to close the lid to use the button. A disappointing purchase.
Walter P Schmidt –
Simple to attach however, item is finicky during operation as the double flush operation needs consistent adjustment and unit needs replacement every 8 to 12 months.
Charlie Morrow –
The water saving single flush does not work. Have to hold the button or lever for it to flush.
Gregory J Meier –
If it’s yellow… you know the movie quote…
Catscooter –
This doesn’t work well with toilets designed for low water usage. the low setting doesn’t flush at all, so I had to use only the full flush.As for installation, it’s held in place with a zip strap and is very hard to put in place if you have a small tank. If the zip strap isn’t tight enough it creeps up and leaks. May be better to use a hose clamp if you have room to install one.If you push it down to tight against the drain, it crinkles the seal and leaks, so may take some trial and error.I finally decided to remove it and reinstall a traditional rubber flapper.
Andrew Warnke –
Works great, took 10 minutes to install.
LabPartner –
It was off by a lot. The spacing between the hole and the tube was too much. No way the shim piece can adjust the alignment that much.
Amazon Customer –
This product works well saves water has power, I keep buying for many years
Steve Wisner –
I had the one that was pushed button that was OK but this handle one for regular flushing is much better.
John J. –
Do no buy from here
Nicole Colleton –
Luckily my old parts was stilI good and got this to replace the same style and not a swap because it didn’t come with the shim or rubber grommet shown in picture which is need to hold it solid in place. It’s completely useless without them. Aside from that it works as should so far.
Prithu Patel –
Flush handle doesn’t work . It gets stuck after every flush and sometimes it’s stuck all night wasting gallons of water. You have to manually lift the handle to stop the water from drawing out
Rahl Cabrales –
Works well for 1/2 flush options.
BJA –
Easy to install, took about 20min
Zenboy4 –
worked exactly as expected.
BennettsDadShopsAmazon –
This solved a few problems. One was that the chain would always fall off and get stuck under the flap and sometimes the flap wouldn’t sit well on the drain and that led to expensive water bills. Be proactive and just do it.
Dmitri Petrov –
Not even in the ballpark of being able to fit my Toto toilet. A compatibility check tool would save us all a lot of trouble
