Toilet Types

There is two types of toilet flushing mechanisms and each have a different solutions for repairing.

Handle Flush

This type of toilet uses a syphon mechanism that works by the motion of pulling the toilet handle down, which in turn pulls the water up into the syphon and starts the process of the syphoning of the water from the cistern into the toilet pan, which is your flush.

Do you have to keep pulling the handle on your toilet to get it to flush even though there is water in the cistern? Your diaphragm in your syphon is or has broken and will need to be replaced.

There are different shapes, sizes, and heights of toilet syphons on the market and depending on your shape, and size of your toilet cistern will determine what is the right one for you.

Push Button Toilets

These toilets work on a completely different system, it works on a mechanism called a drop valve, which as it sounds is a valve that lifts up when the toilet button is pushed to let the water flush into the toilet pan, and then drops down to shut the water off.

The Principle

It kind of works on the same principle as the plug in your kitchen sink you pull it out to get rid of the water and put it back when you want to fill the sink with water, this is how a push button toilet works with a drop valve. TOILETS & TAPS REPAIRED and INSTALLED in Brighton and Hove

This kind of system can have many problems from broken buttons, water leaking into the toilet or toilet wont flush, but for whatever reason, it simply best practice to fit a new valve,

Toilet Inlet & Float Valves

Does your toilet refuse to flush because there is no water in the cistern? If your toilet cistern wont fill with water the chances are that the inlet valve has broken down. This is the valve that regulates how much water goes into the toilet cistern and stops filling once at the correct level.

There are many different types of these valves in different shapes and sizes, some of these valves can be repaired and some can’t, but again in most cases it is simply best practice to replace the valve. The difference in price to get a plumber to fix a valve or replace a valve is very minimal.

 

With Brighton being a hard water area, limescale is a common cause of issues with plumbing components. Ball valves and siphons get heavy use and are usually under under mains water pressure so if anything breaks they will either, start leaking, wont turn off or stop working completely. We have completed hundreds of toilet repairs in Brighton so there is no issue we have not seen.

We source all our ball valves and toilet siphons from local supplied like Plumbase so we are confident that anything we install is good quality and covered with by the manufacturer warranty.
