    Problem with Dudley pneumatic niagara flush

    My Dudley vantage pneumatic operated niagara dual flush valve is not refilling into the cistern and if it does it is very very slow. I can turn on/off the cold water tap from the bath located next to cistern and water begins to flow into cistern albeit very very slowly.
