Troubleshooting

Cistern is leaking.

Check all connections (inlet valve, flush valve, and base) for leaks. Tighten any loose connections. If the issue persists, the internal mechanisms may need replacement.

Flush is weak or incomplete.

Check the water supply valve to ensure it's fully open. Inspect the flush mechanism for obstructions or damage. Clean any mineral buildup in the flush valve.

Cistern is slow to fill.

Check the water supply line for any kinks or blockages. Inspect and clean the inlet valve's filter. If the issue persists, the inlet valve may need to be replaced.

The toilet is constantly running.

Check the flapper valve seal. Check the fill valve. Adjust if needed or replace if it's damaged.
