Filling Valves

The filling valve is a crucial component of your toilet's flush system, responsible for filling the cistern with fresh water for use. If the filling valve develops a fault or fails, it renders your toilet unusable. Additionally, older filling valves may not be as water-efficient as modern counterparts, making an upgrade a sensible choice. The filling valve plays a role in preventing overfilling of the cistern.
At Plumb2U, we offer a range of filling valves designed to suit various toilet designs, ensuring you find the right fit. Our selection includes products from top manufacturers like WirquinIdeal Standard and Geberit.

When it comes to maintaining your bathroom's efficiency and water usage, selecting the right toilet flush valves and fill valves is crucial. Plumb2U can meet your needs, whether you're a professional plumber or a DIY enthusiast looking to update your bathroom.
  1. Types of Filling Valves
    • Bottom Entry Fill Valves: These valves are connected at the bottom of the cistern, which is ideal for minimising noise and hiding plumbing connections. Bottom entry valves are a common choice for modern bathrooms.

  2. Key Features to Consider
    • Material and Build: Look for high-quality materials that offer durability and corrosion resistance, which will ensure long-term reliability and performance.
    • Adjustability: Adjustable fill valves can save water by allowing you to control the refill rate and water level within your cistern.
    • Ease of Installation: Choose valves that are easy to install, which can save time and potential costs if you're installing them yourself.
  3. Installation Requirements
    • Tools Needed: Make sure you have the right tools for the job, which might include wrenches, pliers, and sealant.
    • Professional Help: While many fill valves are designed for DIY installation, consulting with or hiring a professional plumber can ensure that the valve is set up correctly and securely.
  4. Benefits of Upgrading Your Fill Valve
    • Water Efficiency: Newer models are designed to save water, which can significantly reduce your water bill and help the environment.
    • Reduced Plumbing Issues: Quality fill valves prevent common problems such as running toilets and leaks, ensuring smooth operation and reducing the need for repairs.
    • Compatibility and Performance: Upgrading to a model that is compatible with your system enhances performance and efficiency, tailored specifically to your plumbing needs.
