I installed it and the drain still leaked. I tried to return it (even with a 19% restocking fee) and my “request” has gone unanswered.
I did get the overflow gasket to work, but with modifications for my tub. The trip lever was too long and would hit the back of the overflow tube. I cut the trip lever down and added a new hole for the cotter pin. Then the new screws were too long as my overflow tube has blind-holes, not ones that pass all the way through. I tried to use the old ones, but they were too short due to the new thickness of the gasket. Cutting the new ones down made them work. Finally, the weight of the brass plunger was too great, and the trip lever would not stay up. I tried to re-install the previous trip lever, but you need the BluVue version due to the thickness of the silicon gasket. Then installed just the spring from the old trip letter and it was better but not good enough. Removing the spring, I stretched it out a little bit to get it to hold. Now I have a working, non-leaking overflow tube. Such is plumbing...
Very happy with the product, it was substantially less than the competitor. I would be nice to have an install video for the product.
Perfect fit, perfect solution.
Blue view sent the wrong size. I ordered a 4 inch drain cover plate. They sent 4 1/4 inches and it is useless and cannot be used. It’s also questionable as to whether they will even take this back according to their return policy. My suggestion would be not to use this company
BIG Overflow Gasket, Trip Lever Cover, and Strainer Dome Cover Kit
Easy install for the 75-year-old lady and attractive overflow cover.
It does the job perfectly! No more leaking!
Bathtub Walk Thru Accessibility Insert For Easy Walk Through Or Step In Shower
very good, practical solution for someone in need of shower with limited funds.
This item is sufficient, but the lack of installation instructions is a definite drawback IF YOU ARE AN INEXPERIENCED DIY'ER! My husband is in the construction field, so it was fine, but for others it would be tough. We DID take some similar info from the "Step-Through" website which were helpful too.
It is a life saver for elderly people. It helps greatly and it looks great.
Great design but the link for the installation procedure doesn’t work and it would have been helpful.
Perfect,solved my problem,thanks for the speedy reply to my question A+++++
Fits perfect as described and I would recommend this product.
Super easy and so headache free. What a great move to get this. 5 star
Was very easy to install and fixed my problem!
We ordered this the fix a leak in our overflow due to the tub installer leaving a gap. This fixed the issue in 2 minute.
The "snap-in" flange would not snap in! I had to modify it by removing the 4 clips and lightly filing the remaining part of the clips down. The alternative tub repair would have cost me over $1,000.00 so.... it works and I'm happy 😊!
The screws needs to be 1/4 inch longer. Had to go to the Home Depot to get one. Also it would help if the “spout” was a little longer.
Very pleased with the purchase.
Needed the item next day here in Puerto Rico, and they deliver.
I heard a story or two in my townhouse community about expensive repairs from bathtub overflow leaks. It hasn't happened to me, but I did some research to see if there was a sensible way to prevent it. I found BlueVue mentioned in a Reddit post on bathtub overflow leaks. The BlueVue Overflow Gasket and Overflow Cover Kit makes sense, and the installation video on the website shows everything you need to know to install it. The price is reasonable. I had a question on which model to order and it was answered very quickly, so I ordered it. It arrived quickly and was easy to install. That's why I gave it 5 stars.
My steel/enamel tub had rust behind the overflow. After reglazing by a local company I didn’t love, I wanted an additional layer of security from future leaks. This was exactly what I was looking for. I sent BluVue images of my overflow with measurements and purchased their suggestion. I’m delighted. The installation took minutes and worked great, no leaks and I loved that mounting screws included two washers (one metal to go between the screw and the metal plate, and one silicone to go between the metal the silicone to protect the silicone and insure a tight seal).
