Troubleshooting

Cistern not filling with water

Check that the water supply valve is open. Ensure the fill valve is not blocked or damaged. Verify that the bottom feed pipework is correctly connected and free from kinks.

Cistern overflowing

Inspect the fill valve for debris or damage. Adjust the float mechanism if it's set too high. The fill valve may need replacement if the issue persists.

Weak or incomplete flush

Check that the flush mechanism is correctly aligned and the flush pipe is not obstructed. Ensure the cistern is filling to the correct water level. Adjust the flush volume settings if necessary.

Leaking from the cistern

Inspect the seals around the flush valve and fill valve for wear or damage. Check all pipe connections for tightness. If the cistern body itself is leaking, contact the manufacturer or a professional plumber.

Flush button not working

Ensure the flush button mechanism is properly connected to the flush valve. Check for any obstructions preventing the button from being pressed or engaging correctly.
