I'm a real plumbing numpty, but with the help of this site I've just managed to get the lid off of my Roca toilet cistern. Hooray !!! Now is there anyone out there that can advise how I might increase the flow going into the cistern as at the moment it takes forever to fill. I do know that it's not the power of the flow coming into the house as I have another cistern exactly the same which fills much more quickly. Thanks for reading this. Alan861

There's probably debris in the float valve (the bit the lets water into the cistern and then shuts it off when the cistern's full).
You need to switch off the incoming water supply, then take it apart and inspect/clean as necessary.
Not difficult, but you imply you're no expert on these things so not sure if it's the kind of thing you could manage yourself.
Could you post a picture of the inside of your cistern so we can see what kind of float valve is used?
