We recently had a new bathroom installed, from day one the cistern has been very noisy when filling, I've tried turning down the service valve but this appears to make it louder not quieter. It has a polypipe 'fluidmaster style' bottom entry inlet valve which I believe is supposed to be 'quiet'?
Anyway the cistern has now started overflowing, it does this after maybe 8 out of 10 flushes. I've taken the valve apart and cleaned the diaphragm and seal but no improvement, nor does anything look worn. Can anyone suggest a fix or something to try? Can't seem to find a supplier of spare seals.
If not I'm resigned to installing a new inlet valve which is a pain because of the fancy design of the toilet the gland nut can't be reached with the pan in situ. If i go this route is there any reason not to fit a torbeck valve instead? The fluidmaster style seems overcomplicated for what it's supposed to do. Would a torbeck valve be quieter?
Thanks in advance
