TOTO THU485#CP – Frequently Asked Questions
1) My TOTO toilet handle broke. Do I have to replace the whole tank trim?
No. A snapped or loose flush handle is a trip lever job, and the THU485#CP assembly replaces the handle and lever arm on its own. The fill valve, flapper and tank-to-bowl hardware all stay put. For a property manager running a building of TOTO fixtures, this is the part to stock for handle calls.
2) Will a universal toilet handle work in place of the TOTO THU485, or do I need the TOTO part?
Use the TOTO part. TOTO tanks use their own lever arm geometry and mounting nut, and the chain pull point on a generic handle rarely lands where the TOTO flush valve wants it, which shows up as a running toilet or a flush that won't complete. THU485#CP is the TOTO-specified replacement, so it drops into the tank the handle came out of.
3) How do I make sure I order the right TOTO trip lever for my toilet?
Match the part number, not the look. TOTO builds several trip levers that appear nearly identical but differ in arm length and bend, so pull the tank lid and check the model number stamped inside the tank against TOTO's parts breakdown for that toilet before ordering THU485#CP. Trip levers are also handed on some TOTO models, so the arm has to come off the correct side of the tank.
4) What is the TOTO THU485 trip lever handle assembly?
THU485#CP is a TOTO replacement trip lever handle assembly for a toilet tank, supplied in TOTO's polished chrome finish. It is the flush handle and the arm inside the tank that lifts the flapper or flush valve, sold as a repair part rather than a whole tank kit. Order it by the TOTO part number THU485#CP so you get the chrome version.
5) Is the TOTO THU485 flush handle available in any finish other than chrome?
Chrome only. The handle assembly is offered as THU485#CP, the polished chrome version, and that is the single configuration TOTO sells under this part number. If the rest of the trim in the bath is brushed nickel or bronze, you're matching to a different TOTO part number, not a finish option on this one.
6) Is a special tool needed to swap a TOTO toilet trip lever?
No special tools. A trip lever mounts through a single hole in the tank wall and is held by a plastic mounting nut, which on most toilet tanks is reverse threaded, so it loosens clockwise from inside the tank. Unhook the chain, spin the nut off, feed the new THU485#CP arm through the hole and re-hook the chain with a small amount of slack.
