    It cost PLN 12 as I said. It was the cheapest most ordinary model, something like this:

    The trigger was more expensive about PLN 35. Replaced probably unnecessarily, but at least now I know how to get it out and replace it. As you know, learning costs dearly :)

    Good to know. Just today I'm just going to look for a new valve.
    Thanks everyone for your help!

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a persistent leak in a cistern despite the replacement of the gasket and installation of a new valve. Users suggest checking the float valve's position and ensuring it is not submerged, as well as inspecting the seal between the tank and the toilet seat. Recommendations include replacing the float valve if it is faulty, as well as considering the possibility of a defective filling mechanism. Some users share personal experiences, indicating that replacing the filling mechanism resolved similar issues. The conversation highlights the importance of replacing worn components rather than attempting to repair them, as gaskets and valves have a limited lifespan.
