office chair keeps lowering on its own
If the chair won't stay up even when no one is on it, lay it on its side. if the plastic skirt covers the cylinder at this height, you will need to remove the skirt first. to do this, turn the chair upside down, push the retaining clip at the base with a screwdriver, and pull off the wheels, then the skirt.. When your chair keeps sinking, this means that valve, also known as a chair cylinder, is no longer working. in order to fix it, you will either have to replace the piston or get a new chair. however, replacing the office chair's piston can be challenging, and sometimes, not possible.. Also, they are hard to find and expensive. they are also not serviceable because of the dangerous spring inside, and not easy to open. so instead of trying to fix the piston, you can simply create your own adjustable "height stop" which will keep the chair at a certain height. what you need. adjustable pipe clamp (99 cents).
