The Wirquin Jollyflush Base Sealing Washer (10717748) is an essential maintenance component designed for professional plumbers and DIY homeowners who need to restore a leak-free seal in Wirquin Jollyflush or Jollytronic flush valves. It provides a precise fit that prevents water from bypassing the valve base, ensuring your toilet cistern operates efficiently without constant phantom refills; however, users should ensure they are comfortable performing minor plumbing disassembly before attempting the repair.

This washer is specifically designed for the Wirquin Jollyflush and Jollytronic flush valve ranges.
Yes, always isolate the water supply to the toilet cistern before beginning any disassembly.
There is no fixed timeframe, but you should replace it whenever you notice symptoms of a leaking valve or phantom flushing.
Yes, the 10717748 is a genuine replacement part manufactured for Wirquin systems.
Hand-tightening is usually sufficient; using tools can damage the plastic components of the flush valve.
Ensure the sealing area is completely free of debris, sand, or limescale buildup before placing the new washer.
Check that the valve is aligned properly with the base plate and that no other seals or washers were displaced during the process.
To install this washer, you must first isolate the water supply to the toilet and flush it to empty the cistern. Unclip or unscrew the Wirquin valve mechanism from its base. Remove the old washer, clean any debris or limescale from the valve seating area, and place the new 10717748 washer onto the valve base before reseating it. Ensure the connection is aligned correctly before turning the water supply back on. Regularly check the condition of the washer if you live in a hard water area, as mineral build-up can often be wiped away to extend the life of the component, though replacement is necessary if the rubber shows signs of cracking or hardening.
