    Cystern inlet valve

    Cheers exedon, realised that when I posted , flow rate. What’s the cone I read on posts? Is it where the diaphragm hits against to stop inlet ? It’s the ball type. Changed downstairs to dual flush few years ago, but it packed altogether. Cheers

    Weathershield keeps blistering and coming off every year ?

    Hi Robin. yes, put aluminium tape on joints, to see if it helps. that was last year, so didn’t help ! yesterday, put felt strips on edges to form a drip strip , siliconed them and screwed on,as coping only sticks out 20 mil, ish ! wondered if water was going behind render.
