    Slow fill toilet tank
    We live on a farm with a well. We need to replace the insides of the toilet as it takes forever for the tank to fill. What is the best/fastest to put back into the bowl. The one that is in there now just became plugged inside so there is only a trickle. We want it to fill quick as it can and least chance of becoming plugged.

    Thanks

    Go for the flush first. Do you have a whole house filter? I have one on my well and it really keeps the dirt out.

    How is the pressure and volume in the rest of the house? If it is good then shut off the fill lne under the tank and then diredt it into a bucket to see if you have good pressure and volume, back to you.
