Hi Guys, can you please help me with a problem thats driving me round the bend?
I removed my toilet to lay a floor in the bathroom, the old toilet had been bodged together with silicone so I bit the bullet and bought a new one https://www.screwfix.com/p/toilet-to-go-close-coupled-toilet-dual-flush-6ltr/78711
After putting it together it keeps filling up every 30 seconds for a second. A tiny bit of water is getting past the seal between the cistern and pan it seems, I confirmed this with Checkig with food dye. Based on Google I've tried this so far
-set the fill valve as low as possible
-partially close the isolation valve to reduce the flow
-checked for imperfections around the hope, all seems fine
-checked the seal for damage, I can't see any
-ive taken it apart twice now and put it back together and it all seems to close properly.
I should say it improved a bit after the second attempt bit it's still doing it every few minutes. Have I got a lemon or am I doing something wrong. Really appreciate any pointers.
Cheers
Larry
