Troubleshooting
Valve not filling the cistern
Check that the water supply is turned on and that the inlet connection is not blocked. Ensure the valve is correctly seated and has not become dislodged.
Cistern overfilling or leaking into the bowl
Verify the float mechanism is correctly adjusted to shut off water at the appropriate level. Inspect the valve seal for damage or debris that might prevent a complete shut-off.
Water flow is too slow
Ensure there are no kinks in the supply hose and that the water pressure is adequate. Check for any internal blockages within the valve itself.
Valve is making noise during filling
Some humming or whistling can occur due to water flow. If the noise is excessive or indicates a problem, check for secure fittings and ensure the valve is correctly installed.
