The kit includes foam washers: a 1 1/2" foam dome washer and a 2" foam doughnut washer.
The bolt is made of stainless steel, providing durability and resistance to corrosion.
This kit is designed for standard cistern-to-pan connections. Verify that your cistern outlet and pan inlet can accommodate the 1 1/2" and 2" foam washers respectively.
It is strongly recommended to use the new washers provided in the kit. Old washers may have compressed or degraded, compromising the seal and leading to leaks.
Typically, you will need a screwdriver or wrench to tighten the stainless steel bolt.
With proper installation and standard use, the stainless steel components are very durable. Foam washers may require replacement over time due to natural wear and tear, typically after several years.
Ensure the 2" foam doughnut washer is correctly seated and not pinched. Tighten the stainless steel bolt further, but do not overtighten. If the leak persists, the washer may need replacement.
Check that the 1 1/2" foam dome washer is properly positioned on the underside of the cistern outlet bolt and that it creates a seal against the pan inlet. Re-tighten the securing bolt if necessary.
The stainless steel bolt may not be tightened sufficiently. Carefully tighten the securing nut until the cistern is stable. Avoid excessive force that could crack the ceramic.
Setup:
Compatibility:
This kit is designed for standard toilet cistern-to-pan connections. Always verify the dimensions of your existing components and the specified washer sizes (1 1/2" and 2") against your cistern and pan requirements before installation.
Care:
Minimal care is required for this kit once installed. Periodically check for any signs of leaks around the connection points. If leaks occur, re-tighten the securing bolt or consider replacing the foam washers if they appear degraded.
