HI all
I have looked through the forums, but i cant find the answer to my question so i thought i would register and post my question.
I dont know if it is relevant but I am a fairly new plumber (only been qualififed for 2 or 3 years now), and i have mainly been invovled in new builds and refurbs.
Ok so i have a little trouble on an awkward job at the moment, i need to replace a toilet siphon, and the cistern is about 10 - 15 years old, the problem i am having is the cistern is to small to accomodate the new style siphons.
I have tried a couple of different new siphons, basically all around the same size, but as said none of them will fit, here is a link to the siphon i mean.

I have noticed fluidmaster do a siphon that would probally fit, here is the link to one

But as i have never used one of these fluid master siphons before i am just looking for some advice, on wheather the fluidmaster siphon would be a good move. Or any other alternative any of you would suggest?
I realise the cistern dimensions would help, and once i get on site i will post the dimensions, but in the meantime does anyone have any advice please?
Thanks in advance
