slow filling cistern

brohood · 25 Jul 2011

Hi,

I wanted some help in fixing my slow filling toilet. I'm not a DIY expert so please bear with me. Its take an age to fill up between flushes and makes a hissing noise whilst doing so. Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Filling valve probably blocked with scale you could take it off clean it and put back on if you feel confident enough.

The hissing noise is probably that leak.
Time for a new valve, possibly.
