float valve problem

[Diggy]

Hi Guys ,
Just popped over from tiling forum , got a prob with float valve in my cistern , won't shut off completely. This is pretty much what it looks like , is there a replaceable diaphram/washer in it or do i have to get of my backside on sunday and get the grips out of my van and replace the whole unit.

Cheers

There is a washer but unless you get the one specific to the manufacturer of the valve it may not resolve it.

Best off nipping to screwfix to buy a fluidmaster[emoji1]

Thanx KJ

Cheers

Turn off water and pop off blue cap. Twist the top off and washer is in there. Might just need a good clean. If it doesn't work you can always isolate and leave alone til Monday

I would offer to fix it for a drink in the tilers void. But like kings head but nothing in there!
