my downstairs cistern makes a noise like a ferry boat foghorn when it is flushed I have just recently put a brand new complete valve assembly in (from Taskers) a local DIY shop be me and that is making the same noise the wifes on me back HELP
When you say 'valve', have you replaved the float valve or flush valve?
I have a nasty Opella Variflush drop valve and a bottom entry fill valve of some sort and it makes the same noise when flushed, I dont know if its the fill valve through or flush valve though.
when you fit the fill valve into the cistern and do the plastic nut up
before you connect the water pipe you can fit flow restrictors in the inlet to the fill valve depending on your mains pressure.
they come with the valve.
ya know what I ve been suffering with this for over a year and you have just sussed it , just done what you said and your dead right not a peep till I let go of the ballcock cheers mate your a hero,
