    Where does the bellows fit on a Grohe adagio single valveflush?

    I can't see whether the bellows which activates the flush is supposed to fit inside the opening at the top of the valve or press down on the edge. It doesn't seem to be aligned with the top so I don't know what's up with it.

    Close coupled seal for 2" flush with 100mm OD?

    I'm trying to locate a close coupled cistern seal (foam or rubber) for a 2" flush with a 100mm OD and 67mm ID. All I can find is 105mm, 107, or 110mm OD. The pan recess for the seal will only accept 100mm OD. Any ideas on where I could go?

    Mains Water Closet direct Flush valves still a rarity in UK?

    Just was at a caravan site in Lake District recently, which had some very interesting Delabie electronic tap and shower fittings, also direct WC flush valves which worked extremely well. Always wondered why these valves didn’t seem to catch on in UK when very many other countries never use...

    Toilet flush button cistern replacement

    Hello I’m trying to find a replacement flush button but although the thread looks like a siamp I don’t think it is. I found what I thought was the correct button but it didn’t have a strike bar which should fit in a rectangle hole in the centre of the top thread. I’m wondering if that bit was...

    Toilet flush pressure question

    Hello, I have a question on flush pressure. When I press the bigger button, there's hardly a flush. I understand that's normal but it's a very minimal flush. And then the smaller button is quite hard to press and I think doesn't do a full flush either. So when I flush I press both and it works...

    Do you need a power flush still with new rads

    My Mother-in-law was quoted £1,000 by British Gas to do a power flush on her system as her rads aren't performing well. I was wondering, as 4 radiators need to be upgraded to doubles, would this need to be done if they are drained off and replaced? How does one actually know it needs a power...

    I need to adjust the large flush button because water continues to run after the cistern has filled up and the button does not return to its proper position, it stays depressed. The small flush button is working OK. In which direction does the dual flush operating plate need to slide/be moved?

    Hi all, seeking advice on my toilet. (Layman here, please be gentle with me.) When we flush the loo upstairs, it flushes fine (therefore assuming no suggestion of any actual blockage) but after the flush we get a rumbly gurgling from deep within the pipework somewhere and the water level in the...
