[Solved] Leaking Cersanit Flush Cistern After Water Meter Replacement: 4.5 Bar Pressure, Gasket Fix?

Hello

Well, I have this problem. By a strange coincidence, after replacing the water meter in the bathroom, I started to flush my cistern. I am a layman and I do not know what could have gone wrong, set up some 4 years ago.



It seems to me that before setting up the water meter the pressure was max. 4. By lowering the pressure on the regulator, the problem disappears, but the water from the battery flies with squeeze.

Does anyone know how to fix it? Undress, replace the gasket? Are these blue elements with arrows just screws? I do not know if it makes sense to take it, because I feel somewhere that it's the sewage plant's operation, although on the phone they told me it was the cistern's fault and that's all. However, the pressure itself jumped to 4.5 (bara?), What does it result from?

Thanks in advance for help

It follows that the gasket on the cistern has aged and the battery is heavily stained. At 4 bars, there should be no problem.

If the water flies non-stop, it is traditionally a problem with the valve flushing filling.

I have often exchanged in concealed sets.
Valve +/- PLN 30. If you want at a cost, then you can buy the gaskets themselves and replace them. They are here =>

Slight correction. The pictures are shown filling valve not the flushing valve.

Right. I am very sorry for the mistake. Of course, talk about filling valve .
In the above post I corrected.
Thank you for drawing attention.

I just took it for today. I screwed up, cleaned it and ... I broke the valve completely. I mounted as I took off and yet the valve does not cut off the water supply, the float is taut, the inner element improves to slide in / out, while the cistern still fills up. I found only one gasket.

And what about the purchase, how do these valves differ for the average user, that one costs 25 zlotys and the other 50 zlotys? I will buy the simplest, I will exchange and let me know.

He made a friend like it should be? Because the picture is not complex.
The float should be in a different place (as in the above photo that I attached).

Of course you can buy the cheaper one.

The most common reason for not closing the valve is hardening and passing one tiny seal around 5mm in diameter. The beginner usually does not even notice it after dismantling the valve.

I keep repeating that repairing filling valves does not make sense. What about the fact that the rubber elements can be replaced, since the plastic ones are stoned and made. For this assembly, which requires precision. You have to dismantle, go to the store and choose a new one. A few nozzles, assembly in a minute and peace for a few years. For me, the water is such that I had to replace the valves in front of the washbasins and kibles after a few years. They were ball and stiff. I can only dream about the thermostatic head in the spray booth.

Yes, I folded it correctly, I actually threw the photo unfortunate, but I mounted the float well under the pressure of the water running but stick with it. I have located the gasket only one photo.

Today I am going to the hydraulic, it is 3/8 inch, but I will take on fit and I hope it will be ok.

The lever that the swimmer pushes tightens the tiny seal to the hole that can be seen in the center of the white disc in the picture. As this gasket permeates, the valve will not close.

The cost of a new valve was PLN 18. He sang for the first time, but now everything is normal . It seems to me that the water flows a little louder, I'm not sure, I may have felt. Thanks for the help

I exchanged the valve for some of the cheapest KK-POL and after the problem.
