How would you decrease the length of flush on a flushometer?

  1. turn regulating screw counter clockwise

  2. turn regulating screw clockwise

  3. reduce water flow

  4. increase water flow

The correct answer is: turn regulating screw counter clockwise

Regulating screw should be turned counter clockwise to decrease the length of flush, as it will decrease the amount of water flowing through the flushometer. B is incorrect because turning the screw clockwise will increase water flow and therefore increase the length of the flush. C and D are incorrect because they do not involve adjusting the regulating screw and will not have an effect on the length of the flush.
