FAQs
What is the primary benefit of a dual flush plate?
The primary benefit is water conservation. Dual flush plates offer a reduced flush option for liquid waste and a full flush option for solid waste, helping to lower water consumption and utility bills.
Is this flush plate suitable for any toilet?
This flush plate is specifically designed to work seamlessly with the Viva Skylo Ultra Slim Wall Hung Frame. Compatibility with other brands or types of frames is not guaranteed and may require professional assessment.
How do I clean the gloss chrome finish?
Clean the gloss chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a mild soap solution, then rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent spotting.
Can I install this myself?
Installation is designed to be straightforward, especially when used with the compatible Skylo frame. However, basic DIY skills and adherence to the installation manual are recommended. If you are unsure, consult a professional plumber.
What does 'quick release' refer to?
The 'quick release' feature means the flush plate can be easily detached without complex tools, providing fast and convenient access to the cistern's internal fittings for maintenance or repair.
Does the colour family 'Silver' mean it's actual silver?
The 'Silver' colour family refers to the finish, which is Gloss Chrome. This provides a shiny, metallic silver appearance, not solid silver material.
Troubleshooting
Flush plate feels stiff or difficult to press.
Check that the actuator rods are correctly aligned and not obstructed by any internal cistern components. Ensure they are properly connected to the flush mechanism.
Dual flush mechanism not working correctly (e.g., only full flush activates).
Inspect the connection between the flush plate and the cistern's flush valve. The adjustment or linkage for the dual flush may need fine-tuning as per the Skylo frame's manual.
Flush plate is loose on the wall.
Ensure the mounting screws or clips securing the flush plate to the frame are tightened appropriately. Do not overtighten, which could damage the plate or frame.
Gloss finish appears dull or streaky.
Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Wipe dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth to avoid water spots and streaks.
