Comment from : Big Mastodon

Good man Just did all 3 of mine Instructions come with the seal too Bottom flush valve is a terrible design, must cost a fortune each year in wasted water

Thank you so much for the video!brI had a persistent overflow leak in my toilet and after watching your video I investigated and realised it was a faulty inlet valve diaphragm…Ordered a £6 replacement from Amazon, it arrived this morning and I fitted it in 2mins Problem sorted! brSaved me a £150 out of hours plumber visitbrThanks again 🙏🏽

Thanks man, such a helpful video!
Comment from : Michael Bradley

Thank you! I had no idea how to access the flush valve and my only access was thru the flushplate hole in a tiled in cistern Did it all by touch after watching your vid, 15 minute job, saved me calling out a plumber!
Comment from : Brian H

Hi! Thanks for the video I have another problem; just wondering if you could help My tank is not filling up with water at all It’s exactly the same toilet, ideal standard Thanks
Comment from : Roselyn M

Great video, just a small point but you may need to clean the seal mating face in the bottom of the cistern too This can also become dirty over time and have some limescale build up

Comment from : B_The_Lone_Wolf

Hi good helpful video but you need to film in ‘landscape mode’ on you phone it would’ much clearer to see what’s going on
Comment from : reflexxtr

Thank you for this excellent video I just fixed ours with a new diaphragm thing and saved I don’t know how much in plumber fees! Just wanted to let others know that the new one will be smooth, the ridges that are on the old one are caused by it compressing into the tube, that’s what causes it to fail Thanks again

Comment from : chris Owen

Thank you for your video Can you tell me how you managed to get under the water tank? I also have the same issue There is absolutely no space for me to get under it in order to change the inlet valve because mine has a whole on it
Comment from : Mo Ally

Thank you so much Your video just saved me £350 as that’s what a so called plumber quoted me to replace the valve @ £75 per hour Rob dogs
Comment from : Val Haynes

Thanksexcellent video saved me time and moneygood job
Comment from : Ray Walker

Have the same problem Think I need to call a plumber 😭 5min30 you turn the flush unit anticlockwise to unlock it On mine the whole thing moves from the base so the top half doesn't unlock as the entire thing moves Can't get a good enough grip to hold the base to stop it turning while twisting as there's so little space
Comment from : Mark Rees

Thanks, it helped me a lot Chris Scotland
Comment from : C H

Thanks for the video Add one thing: it's MUCH easier to remove the valve seal/clip with a PAIR OF PLIERS than with a screwdriver Regards, Nigel
Comment from : Nigel Root

Comment from : Mohammed Sharif

Comment from : thebkwhopper

This is part of my problem but also the the Crome flush caps on the outer lid were missing when I moved into my house 😏are these a “part” that can be replaced without having to buy a whole new mechanism? cheers
Comment from : reflexxtr

Thanks for sharing, I have had the exact same problem at home with the inlet valve and the flush valve, now I know what to replace 👍
Comment from : Adventure Ireland

Watched your video yesterday, ordered the part from Amazon and fixed my toilet today Thanks so much, great video
Comment from : Virginia Woodhall

Thank you for taking the trouble to make the video Same set up as mine, which had the same problem Very much appreciated
Comment from : Roger Alway

Thank you for posting videoUseful to know you can get replacement flush valve seal as a spare part
Comment from : eddy walters

Thank you that was a great help, i also neaded a new diafram for the ciston fill valve, had a tiny hole in it
Comment from : roy harding

Video really helpful but I’m not entirely sure what to actually buy…”valve, diaphragm” there seems to be millions to choose from?
Comment from : Carly Burnet

I am so pleased I came across this video I have had exactly the same issue as the one you are talking through After replacing the main flush valve (which probably needed to be replaced anyway, the water was still leaking from the inlet valve, even after holding up the plastic float which I didn’t even know was possible!!brbrAnyway, thankfully after taking a picture of your diaphragm part I went to multiple stores and all had the standard diaphragm valve which you also show (from screwfix etc) after going to my final plumbing merchant (Wolesley Plum Centre) they gave me the correct valve and like your set up, the water valve is all tiled away behind the toilet brFrom switching off the main water valve in the kitchen to replacing the diaphragm, it took about 4 minutes! Switched the water back on and now all workingbrbrYour video is very well explained for me and has probably saved me a call out fee and a replacement inlet valve, all for some inconvenience in shopping around today for the correct valve and spending £8 as I had to buy the full ideal inlet service packbrbrThank you again!!!
Comment from : Marc West

Absolutely brilliant! I was beginning to despair of finding on-line help for the same cistern setup as mine, but this was perfect TY
Comment from : SJ Horse

This video helped me out, thanks Didn't know it was so simple Shame on the parts, we have three of these, two leaked, so I picked up three, one as a spare, for the sum of £26
Comment from : AndyW

In the longer term it might have been better to have fitted a new bottom entry inlet valve at the same time The newer models fill the cistern from the bottom of the inlet valve as opposed to the top and as a result they are much quieter - no hissing or dripping etc The advice on the flush valve washer was very good and as they only cost about a fiver it is worthwhile always keeping one at home as a spare
Comment from : Alan

Great video thanks I would suggest the Blue deposit is not caused by toilet cleaning blocks BUT its copper deposit from the plumbing in the inlet water pipe work
Comment from : Jack Bate

I put a toilet cleaner block in each three of my toilets and within a few months all three started to leak! Never again!!
Comment from : R H

Again had a problem and this video helped me big thank you
Comment from : Kathleen Morris

Very cleary explaned Thanks to that contributor I will now try to fix my leak myself rather than cann in an expensive plumber I have ordered the parts already from Wolseley and will collect and fit them tomorrow Wish me luck
Comment from : Peter McGregor

I did this yesterday Old drop valve seal had split and the rubber perished/gone tacky Problem still exists after replacing with a genuine 1967 part number seal It is different from the original as is white/opaque instead of black I cleaned the mating surface it still leaks
Comment from : King of the West Midlands

Comment from : Tracey Aitken

Thanks for that video I am rich to blind but even I can do that I do have a bit of site so thanks for the video I was really struggling and hoping that I didn’t have to call and a plumber because I want to charge my fortune just to do that
Comment from : David Simmons

Thanks so much Great video which helped me sort out the issue
Comment from : Venkatesh PK

Our water pipe is going full throttle 24/7 Any chance this could be fixed with the same methodlikeit isn't a drip it's a tap lol
Comment from : Itshighnoon

Thank you for making this
Comment from : David

Thanks Buddy:)
Comment from : 2Ktravels

This video really helped me to get the leak issue resolved This is the first time I tried any plumbing work, your easy step by step guide allowed me to fix the issue As you said, the standard diaphragm doesn't work, so I used SV90167 which can be found online Many thanks for your help, saved lot of time and money
Comment from : Satya Prasad

Thank you You have saved me a ton of money and a headache
Comment from : Steve

Unable to take out the top of the inlet valve The whole column turns when i try to unscrew the top Unable to access the inlet valve from beneath since the toilet is fully concealed underneath Do you recommend using wrench to take the top off while holding the steel with another wrench?
