Summer School Maintenance Tips – Flush Valves & Fixtures to Check Now

Summer is the ideal time for school facility managers to tackle plumbing maintenance while classrooms and restrooms are less occupied. One of the most overlooked but essential tasks? Checking flushometers and supply components.

Start with Sloan flush valves—widely used in school restrooms for their durability. Look for worn diaphragms, weak flush performance, or inconsistent sensor response. These are signs that replacement kits or new assemblies may be needed. Don’t forget the spud gaskets, tailpieces, and vacuum breakers.

At City Supply, we stock Sloan repair kits, stops, couplings, and more—all ready to ship nationwide. A quick inspection now can help prevent mid-year restroom failures that lead to costly emergency repairs.

➡️ Tip: If you’re unsure which part to order, check the model number on the valve body or reach out to our team for guidance.
