To isolate the problem, remove the tank lid. Grab the float and lift: 1. If the water stops running the problem is in the float mechanism. If the float is over half submerged look for a leak in the float. Check the float and repair or replace. If the float is okay, adjust the float downward. This can be done by: (a) adjustment screw on top of the ball cock. (b) bending the rod supporting the float. The recommended water level is often marked on the tank wall. If not, the water level should be about 1" below the overflow pipe. 2. If you cannot stop the water flow by raising the float, the problem is probably the inlet valve in the ball cock. Shut off the water to the tank by turning the valve below the tank or by closing the valve in the main supply to the house. Remove the float assembly by unscrewing two thumb screws. This will allow you to lift the valve. In other ball cocks, unscrew the two thumb screws on either side of the top assembly and lift it off. The valve assembly should drop out. 3. Replace the rubber washer in the bottom of the valve. If you do not have a new washer turn the old one over as a temporary repair until you can get a new replacement. Check the size before you reassemble.
* Kits of insulation material can be purchased to install on the inside of the tank. These require considerable effort because the inside of the tank must be dry and clean. The insulation must be installed so water cannot seep between the insulation and the tank wall. * A valve can be purchased which will proportion a fixed amount of hot and cold water into the tank to make the water temperature high enough to prevent condensation. The requires an alteration to the plumbing system but is very effective. It will "waste" heated water. * Buy a tray which hangs under the tank, usually hooked to the top of the tank with thin metal strips. Put sponges on the tray to soak up the water dripping on to the tray.

Why is our earth the kind it is? Not only because it is full of a number of things. But also because the things in it are related. The earth is like a watch. (ア)(1)about(2)of(3)accidental(4)the mechanism(5)nothing(6)there's(7)a watch. Each part is a working part and each is absolutely necessary to make the watch go. Further,the watch can go only when each part is(イ)connected with parts.
All the parts of the earth are(ウ)working parts,and are necessary to make it “go.” Consider physical features such as the Grand Canyon of the Colorado River and Mt.Fuji,in Japan. They are the result of rerationships were started millions of years ago and have continued(エ)this very day.

How do we understand how a watch works? Only by knowing what use each spring,gear,and wheel serves,and how the parts hang together. (ク)In the same way,we can understand how our world works only by getting to know the parts,and the relationships between them.
(続き) This,however,is not easy,even if it could be done(ケ). For there are far more working parts to the earth than to a watch or(コ). Nobody yet knows exactly how many working parts there are. After all,some parts of the world are still barely known. Large areas of Antarctica remain univestigated. So are large areas of the atmosphere and the oceans, (サ)(1)are(2)both(3)at work(4)which(5)of all the time cooling and warming,drying and moistening the land surfaces of the earth. Then again,some of the relationships between the(シ)working parts are not fully understand.
