Hi Just removed an old toilet and fitted a new push button cistern one.
I had to re-route the supply water pipe over the waste pipe coming out of the back as i had to use a swan neck one to line up with waste hole in floor,and the water pipe didn't fit past waste pipe.
I cut the supply pipe about 600 mm away, and fitted a service valve (not a full bore) i then had to route pipe over the waste pipe using 3 right angle joints to get to cistern inlet.
After finnishing, it all works ok, but now i hear a wooshing sound from the cold water pipe in the corner of the room whilst it is filling after a flush. Trying to work out what has changed to cause this,.. is it the new cistern ,which i left the restrictor in as we have a good pressure, is it not using a Full Bore Valve, is it having 3 right angle joints in pipe to cistern ???. Any help much appreciated Alan
