Twin flush valve

[MasterPlumbersKeymaster]

We need to know where we can purchase a twin flush valve for an up flush toilet model U-P with automatic twin flush valve. This was purchased 6-3-85 from McPherson,Inc, in Tampa, FL, when we called the phone number it is no longer in service. Is there by any chance some place in MT that we can purchase this or eastern WA?

McPherson went out of business
shortly after the 1.6 gpf became
a requirement. I’ve searched for
two years trying to find parts for
my twin flush valve with no success. I have a twin flush valve
you can have. It has a slight leak
in one of the internal diaphragms
and allows additional water to
leak into the bowl, about 1 gal.
in 24 hrs. Way short of overflowing. That problem can be
avoided by putting a shutoff valve
on the water supply line, either
a quarter turn 1/2″ ball valve or
a full flow solenoid valve. I used
a solenoid valve, 12vac with a
timer relay set at 10 min. and put
the switch right next to the twin
flush valve actuator.
I have since gone with a Myer’s
Sewage Pumping package with an
American Std. 1.6 gpf toilet and
I am very satisfied.
