Burlington WC Cistern

Sep 02, 2016 4 Replies

Finally threw out the didn't-flush-properly toilet and replaced it with a B urlington Close Coupled WC. This has the most complicated internals of any WC I've ever seen, not that I've seen many, and has two different volumes a nd two different flush controls. Resetting these will require a strong drin k and a long study of the instructions.



Anyway the question is should the cistern empty completeley after a full fl ush ?



Also has anyone any experience of these ?



Before long you will need your smart phone to flush the loan a blue tooth toilet sounds a bit dangerous. Brian

My experience is KISS with everything. (Keep It Stupid Simple) There's a stupid tendency these days to over complicate everything.

I have one and having just checked....after the full flush about 2" of water remains in the bottom of the cistern. In spite of this, it is a very good flusher IMHO. From memory (and the instruction booklet which I 'd suggest you need to keep!) the only set up needed is to get the fill level correct. If you set it for the right size cistern in line with the instructions I cannot think one would ever need to adjust it. Please reply to group - email address is not monitored Ian

Are these things universal for use with any close coupled non siphonic pan?

Reason I ask is I need to replace a cracked cistern and work and was looking at this:

as it is not expensive but couldn't decide if it would fit a 1960s close coupled pan?
