1. When the water inlet valve of a squat toilet overflows, the first step is to shut off the water supply. Typically, squat toilets are equipped with a control valve for the water supply, which can be closed. Next, remove the stopper of the drainage component and inspect it for any foreign objects, aging, or deformation. If foreign objects or an old stopper are found, clean or replace the stopper immediately.

2. Next, we use a cross-head screwdriver to remove the non-standard nuts and replace them with new ones, tightening them securely. When installing the overflow pipe into the ceramic fitting, ensure it is properly aligned and tightened without excessive movement. Drain all water from the water tank until the water level is below the outlet. After draining the water, add a dark-colored solution and check for leaks at the outlet.

3. If there is leakage at the drain opening, it indicates that the ceramic body has hidden cracks. In this case, we need to call a professional repair technician to replace the damaged drain components.

4. Remove the shut-off valve from the left side of the toilet bowl, followed by removing the plastic nut at the bottom of the shut-off valve. If there is a filter or other components, remove them as well. Then, you can remove the shut-off valve from the water tank. Disconnect the supply tube (typically a plastic hose connecting to the overflow valve), remove the plastic cover, loosen the water-tight connection, and turn it counterclockwise to open. Remove the rubber gasket from the valve stem and clean it before re-installing it.

5. Regular Cleaning: Regularly cleaning the shut-off valve can also help prevent situations where water stops flowing.

Two. How to stop the continuous inflow of water through the water inlet valve of the water tank.

1. When you hear unusual noises coming from the flush valve and notice water leaking from the overflow, or if the flush valve is not functioning correctly, it could indicate a leak in the toilet tank. In such cases, you can open the toilet tank and attempt to repair it yourself. First, remove the entire flush valve assembly from the tank. Note: Do not force the removal; use a screwdriver to carefully disassemble it.

2. Next, disassemble the water tank components, removing the white connectors on the inner side. These connectors have two yellow gaskets that need to be replaced. You can purchase these gaskets from a hardware store or make them yourself.

3. Next, reinstall the waterproofing membrane and check for leaks.
