Hello all.
Would appreciate any help & advice on this.
I have to replace a damaged toilet cistern as the out casing has broken where the flusher arm fits. Although i`t doesn't leak you can only flush it by pulling the lever manually from inside the cistern.
I have read the relevant projects and looked at numerous forum posts but am unable to help myself!
First of all I assume I can replace the cistern without changing the toilet as it is fitted to the wall above the pan and connected by a pipe to it.
The next thing is that I cannot trace where the water inlet pipe comes from. The toilet is downstairs and appears to be connected to the mains supply and has no stop valve?
To take the cistern off will I have to manually drain it (ie by turning off the mains water supply and flushing it?)..
I guess I can then just fit a new cistern and connect it up?
Is it that straight forward?
All hints, tips and advice appreciated!
Thanks in advance of your help.
Andy.
