Cistern valve overflow

[grommet1]

Puchased a new Torbeck bottom entry valve, which does not shut the water off, even though the float is completely submerged.
I have dismantled the antisyphon assembly, cleaned it. I bought and fitted a new one, but it also refuses to stop filling. Has anyone else had any experience with these valves?

Yes. They're sh*te. Except the ones that work after installation, but they become sh*te within a small number of months. If you live in a hard water area then they scale up before you've even taken them out of the packaging.

Given me a common-or-garden 'Chem any day. If you really can't fit in a float arm then Fluidmaster (as jay1 has said) are better.

Fitted 6 over the last few months ,coz it was all the merchants had in stock that day so "dafty bought em".

Anyway have been called back to several of them as they continually drip making me out to be a incompetant **** blinking things are rubbish .
