TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

IMPORTANT: The CROWN® flushometer is engineered for quiet operation. Excessive water flow creates noise, while too little water flow may not satisfy the needs of the fixture. Proper adjustment is made when the plumbing fixture is cleansed after each flush without splashing water out from the lip AND a quiet flushing cycle is achieved.
Never open the control stop to where the flow from the valve exceeds the flow capability of the fixture. In the event of a valve failure, the fixture must be able to accommodate a continuous flow from the valve.

ATTENTION INSTALLERS: With the exception of the control stop inlet,
DO NOT USE pipe sealant or plumbing grease on any valve component or coupling! To protect the chrome or special finish of Sloan flushometers,
DO NOT USE toothed tools to install or service these valves. Use our A-50 Super Wrench or another smooth-jawed wrench to secure couplings. Regulations for low-consumption fixtures (1.6 gpf/6.0 Lpf closets and 1.0 gpf/3.8 Lpf urinals) prohibit use of higher flush volumes.

The valve DOES NOT function

• A. Control stop or main valve is closed. Open control stop or main valve.
• B. Handle assembly is worn. Install Sloan handle repair kit, or replace the handle.
• C. Relief valve is worn and sticking in UP position. Replace piston.

Insufficient volume of water to adequately siphon fixture

• A. Control stop not open enough. Adjust control stop for desired delivery of water.
• B. Urinal piston parts inside a closet valve. Replace piston parts with the proper closet piston.
• C. Low consumption valve installed on a non-low consumption fixture. Replace with proper flushometer. Crown® flushometers are not available with flush volumes higher than 1.6 gpf/6.0 Lpf.
• D. Inadequate volume or pressure at supply. Increase water pressure or supply (flow) to the valve. Consult the factory for assistance.

The information contained in this document is subject to change without notice.

Length of the flush is too short (short flushing) or the valve closes off immediately.

• A. Piston assembly is not hand-tight. Screw the assembly hand-tight.
• B. Enlarged bypass orifice from corrosion or damage. Install a NEW inside parts kit to correct the problem and update the flushometer.
• C. Urinal piston in closet flushometer. Replace the piston with the proper closet piston.
• D. Low consumption piston installed in non-low consumption fixture. Replace with proper flushometer. Crown® flushometers are not available with flush volume higher than 1.6 gpf (6.0 Lpf).
• E. Handle assembly is worn. Install Sloan handle repair kit.

Length of the flush is too long (long flushing) or fails to close off

• A. Piston is not seating properly or the bypass orifice is clogged because of foreign material, or bypass orifice is clogged by an invisible gelatinous film from “over-treated” water. Disassemble the working parts and wash thoroughly. NOTE: The size of the orifice in the bypass is of utmost importance for the proper metering of water into the upper chamber of the valve. DO NOT enlarge or damage this orifice. Replace the piston if cleaning does not correct the problem.
• B. Line pressure has dropped and is not sufficient to force the relief valve to the seat. Shut off all control stops until the pressure has been restored, then open them again.
• C. Main seat is fouled with debris or is worn. Clean or replace the main seat.

Leaking at the handle assembly

• A. The B-85 seal may have deteriorated. Install new B-85 seal.
  NOTE: The B-85 seal will easily slide onto the bushing if it is wet.

• B. Handle gasket has been omitted. Install an A-31 handle gasket or Sloan handle repair kit.

• C. Valve handle bushing is worn. Install Sloan handle repair kit.

CARE AND CLEANING

• DO NOT USE abrasive or chemical cleaners (including chlorine bleach) to clean flushometers that may dull the luster and attack the chrome or special decorative finishes. Use ONLY mild soap and water, then wipe dry with a clean cloth or towel.
• While cleaning the bathroom tile, the flushometer should be protected from any splattering of cleaner. Acids and cleaning fluids will discolor or remove chrome plating.
