FAQs

What exactly is included in this kit?

The kit contains 4 conical washers, 2 nuts, 2 standard washers, and 2 wing nuts.

How do I know if this kit will fit my toilet?

It is designed for standard installations, but we recommend comparing the dimensions in the provided size guide image with your specific cistern and toilet bowl before purchasing, as brand sizes can vary.

Can I install this myself?

Yes, this kit is suitable for DIY installation. Basic plumbing knowledge and tools may be helpful.

What is the dispatch and delivery time?

The product is usually dispatched within 3 working days, with delivery typically completed in 3-5 working days within the UK mainland from the dispatch date.

What is the return policy?

You can return the goods within 30 days of receipt for any reason.

Are the wing nuts essential for installation?

The kit includes wing nuts which can facilitate manual tightening, but standard nuts are also provided and can be used with a spanner for a more secure fit if preferred.

Troubleshooting

Leaking after installation

Ensure conical washers are correctly seated and all nuts are tightened evenly to create a firm seal. Check for any cracks in the cistern or bowl at the bolt points.

Bolts are too long or too short

This kit is designed for standard sizes. If bolts are unsuitable, you may need to source bolts of a different length from a hardware store. Verify compatibility before installation.

Difficulty tightening nuts

Ensure the correct nuts and washers are used in the sequence. If wing nuts are proving difficult, use a spanner for more leverage, but be careful not to overtighten.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides all necessary components for cistern attachment.
  • Ensures a secure and stable connection.
  • Durable materials for long-term use.
  • Includes wing nuts for potentially easier tightening.

Cons

  • Size compatibility needs verification against specific cistern models.
  • Group images may not accurately represent pack quantity.
  • Requires basic DIY skills for installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the toilet cistern and bowl are clean and dry.
  2. Position the cistern onto the bowl, aligning the bolt holes.
  3. Insert the bolts from the cistern side, through the bowl.
  4. Place the conical washers onto the bolts on the underside of the bowl.
  5. Add the standard washers and then the nuts (or wing nuts) to secure the cistern.
  6. Tighten nuts evenly to create a watertight seal, avoiding overtightening.

Compatibility:

This kit is designed for standard toilet cistern installations. However, it is crucial to compare the dimensions of the included components with your specific cistern and toilet bowl before purchase. Refer to the product's size guide image for detailed measurements. Ensure the bolt length is suitable for the combined thickness of the cistern, flush, and bowl.

Care:

To maintain the longevity of the kit, clean the area around the cistern bolts periodically with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials. Periodically check the tightness of the nuts to ensure a continued secure fit.
