TOILET FILL VALVE REPLACEMENT - Plumbing Tips

Brilliant video straight to the point cheers

Can you just use any inlet valve ?

hello sir, what if my toilet inlet shut off valve is rust and leaking? how do you replace that? thanks in advance

I've got an old Gerberit cistern inlet filler that leaks like hell. I've taken the valve apart several times and use limescale remover to clean it and the refitted. After a few days or weeks the valve starts leaking again. Getting to the point of replacing the bottom feed inlet valve unit. Are the bottom screw diameters all the same size on all inlet valves or will i have to measure the inlet hole at the bottom of the cistern? Any help would be must appreciated..

Torbeck B661AT - is this ok for low pressure water as I want to hook up a big rainwater barrel currently outside the d/s loo to the fill pipe (on a lever to switch between rainwater and mains )

Brilliant, so simple but we'll explained as usual

How you do it when you can't stick bloody adjustable up there

Always concise, clear vids.

Magic ..Thanks mate

Everytime I watch these YT vids, on this subject, they replace the whole unit-WHY, last time I had this problem, water continuing to trickle into the cistern, I was able to get a replacement Rubber seal, and job done ?? or has MODERN designs prevented that now ? Progress eh?

Hi
My toilet is making a hissing sound at random times is this a sign that the inlet valve needs replacing?... The toilet fills up OK after flushing but keep getting a hissing sound even when loo not in use.
Cheers mate

Very good

Unless it's a closed system them you have to start pulling the bog away from the wall to get to the thread! :(

How to adjust the water level

Nice of you to skip over the hardest part of the job. REMOVING THE NUT UNDERNEATH. Forget to include that? No, you probably spent about 20 minutes doing it.

Whats the part number anyone?.

Great vid - has a real 90s mtv vibe

Job done, turned off the water and just cleared out the muck behind the filter. I didn't need to put in a new filter. It might be worth trying first, thanks again.

You're the man, I've been trying to find that exact fill valve for ages and showing how to replace it is a bonus. Many thanks

You deserve knighthood from the queen thank you for sharing such knowledge. I will repair my fill valve tomorrow as it doesn’t turn off!
