Hello all
I am not a plumber but I have managed to fix my toilet with some pointers from this site.
So here is what I did to fix my ceramic throne.
First of all the problem, the toilet would not fill up after flushing. So here is what I did very simple.
In the Roca toilet there is a float value with an actuator arm on the top that opens a valve, and lets the water in to fill the cistern simple yes. No mine stop filling so after much hunting for parts I found a replacement £17.00.
Looking at the picture I could see that this little device could be striped down.
So off with the lid and I managed to strip the little bugger down and clean it with a tooth brush and it works again fine flush, after flush, after flush.
What was the problem it was the rubber there’s a little pin and it was covered in lime scale. I cleaned it and all now works fine after a good wash in hot water.
How to strip it, First run you hand down the pipe and there is a collar pull it up, the pipe will now separate from the main cistern.
You should now have the top halve in your hand with the float bowl remove the black cap cover it pulls off with a little care. When this is off pull up the two little white arms and twist the whole arm anti clock wise at the same time pulling up.
This will now exposed the rubber and pin clean it in hot water and put back together.
Flush your toilet and it should now fill up fine, if not get yourself £17.00 😀
