Installation Tip
Before installation, flush supply pipes to ensure the cistern is clean and free from debris. Do not use sealing compounds or solvents in contact with plastic or rubber surfaces; hand-tightening plus a 1/4 turn is recommended for an adequate seal. This valve is supplied with an air gap as standard to comply with water regulations.
