OLD STYLE BALLCOCK VALVE HANDLE TYPE CISTERN

[PHIL269]

Hi,
I have a old style handle type toilet.

Noticed that when it fills up it never fully
depresses the plastic piston seems to be stiff
and even after filling it still drips and finally overflows

Is it best to replace with another old style ball cock valve
or can you use a fliudmaster in these old toilets if so
which model do I look for and how do I connect up the handle
with a new style fluildmaster float valve.

Thanks for any help
Phil.

Not sure if you are intending to change just the fill valve or the flush valve as well. If it is just the fill valve then there is no need to change the handle set up. A fluid master fill valve can be added so long as space permits.

If you want to change the flush as well then there are various conversion kits that you can buy.
