Abstract

See full text

Apparatus and method for preventing a toilet from running. The apparatus comprises a hollow, cylindrical tube, with a diameter at least slightly larger than the chain of a toilet tank. The toilet chain is run throughout the tube, fixing critical links of the chain in place. This is desirable to prevent the chain from catching on the toilet piston or rod, both of which are leading causes of toilets running.
