There is a float that turns off the water at a set height, sometime with old brass ones you would get a leak and the toilet would never stop. The overflow is there to protect you from floods so it should be below the handle hole.
Okay. So it is most likely a problem with the fill valve not stopping for some reason. (It is a newer-style plastic valve). So if I changed the fill valve, it would probably take care of the problem.... but I could also avoid having to change the fill valve just by cutting a few inches off of the overflow tube?
And if I wanted to save on my water bill, I should change the fill valve.
Is this correct?
