    Commercial Toilets/ Flush Valves/ Pressurized Flush Device

    In the states we call them "Flushometers". I don't know if you have them over there. A big manufacturer in Germany has a similar product (Schell) and I'm thinking it might be a great mating to an Aquablade closet to possibly avoid skids and blockages (yes I know requires larger piping)...

    I've bought a replacement flush valve for (Geberit 282.350.KD.1 Flush Valve) as the last one fell to pieces, it works perfectly but the top down button is about 2 inches too short to sit in the hole on the cistern lid. Is there an easy way to get it to sit higher? You can reach it if you have...

    Best chemical flush?

    I've been using Fernox F3 and on occasion Sentinel X400 to chemically flush out old 8mm microbore heating systems. I've had mixed results with both products, although they generally do the job. I'm thinking of trying the fast acting stuff Sentinel X800, on a very old and never cleaned 8mm...

    Dudley flush problem

    I have a Dudley concealed cistern fitted with an Electroflo flush using battery power. The first 'blue' (long) flush of the day, when it's been inactive during the night, often doesn't work properly - the blue light comes on, the motor runs - then there's a 'thump' and everything stops. If I...

    Flush water not discharging all the way round rim of bowl...

    Hi, my Twyfords flushes OK but the water doesn't circulate round the rim, it just flushes out 2 or 3 inches either side of outlet. There's a 'widget' thingy tucked up inside the rim at the outlet point and I assume this is suppose to direct the water horizontally beneath the rim but it's loose...
