Read the pattern
Record tank level, refill intervals, overflow behavior, handle return, bowl movement, exterior moisture, local stop condition, and any effect from another fixture.
Decision terrace 20
Move from evidence to a bounded authorization
Hold the safety line
Close a sound fixture stop for uncontrolled fill. Stop flushing if the bowl rises, water appears elsewhere, porcelain is cracked, or the floor moves.
Place the Seattle boundary
A tank repair differs from fixture removal, flange work, branch clearing, or damaged flooring. Each changes access, permit, and finish responsibilities.
Write the visit
List fill and flush components, fasteners, supply, stop, tank seal, bowl removal, flange allowance, floor protection, disposal, and operational checks.
Keep the closing evidence
Let the tank remain quiet after refill, inspect every exterior joint, complete several normal flushes, and compare later meter observations under the same controls.
