Tapco 3137-0980 Ballcock Cadet Compton Fill Valve

Product Description

The TAPCO 3137-0980 is a ballcock-style toilet fill valve designed for use in residential toilet tank assemblies. A ballcock controls the flow of water into the tank after each flush cycle, shutting off automatically when the tank reaches the correct water level. This unit is identified by the Cadet Compton designation, indicating its fitment class within the TAPCO product line. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers install this component as a direct replacement when an existing fill valve fails to shut off, runs continuously, or shows signs of seal wear. Its straightforward mechanical design supports quick serviceability with standard hand tools.

This fill valve is suited for residential toilet installations where a ballcock-type replacement is required. It is intended for tank-style toilets operating on standard residential water supply pressures. The Cadet Compton designation targets a defined fitment range within that category. This part is a common service item for plumbers handling toilet repairs in residential homes, rental units, and light commercial restroom facilities where standard tank toilets are in use.
