Hello all, Can anyone advise on a cistern that has a slow drip please?
I've only just replaced the whole cistern unit. The drip comes through the thread of the pipe sticking out of the bottom (actually it's all one piece with the internal mechanism. It was also leaking directly under the cistern untill I put some evo-stick on there - so its a bit better.
A previous post recomended Fernox Leak Sealant - is this the right stuff? The evo-stick was recomended by my local plumbers merchant. I also have some PVC glue.
(By the way the unit also had a leak at the join with the inlet pipe, due to nut not threading properly. I managed to cure this by cutting the pipe down a bit to remove a section with wonky thread, but is all this kind of thing a common problem wth plastic joints?)
Anyhow thanks for any help, Ad
