overflow

[spoonse]

Hi there ,

I have a cistern that keeps filling up when its not flushed for a while.Its all since i put in a new flush button shaft which connects to the bottom of the cistern bowl/tank.Any ideas as this is happening as any overflow of anykind should be letting it away once certain levels have been reached i would have tought. Thanks

sounds like your new flush valve is passing,put some food colouring into cistern(easier to see if it's leaking into the pan)

so it has a fault or adjustment on the fill valve.

You could use yellow food colouring, at least it will look right in the pan.

where would the fill valve be ? Is it the arm thing that comes off of the main unit?

the fill valve is the part that lets the water into the cistern from the mains water supply.
