Welcome to toiletspares.com.au. Today, we're going to look at the Roca flush valve and a Roca long button. So I'll just do the long one today. So I'll show you how to fit them together and how to adjust up the valve so that everything works properly.
There's no need to remove the whole system. You can simply leave the old basket in place providing that the seals. If it's not, you have to take the system off and replace it. But if the seal is okay, you can just remove the top from the bottom. We just untwist this. Anti-clockwise looking at the top. It takes a fairly firm twist and then that lifts off. So if that's your old basket and your old valve, you take that off. You take your new top half off the valve, put that on and you twist. Now it's just important to note here that when this is off this piece, here has little tongues four little tongues around and this slots here.
So when you, drop this in, just make sure that those tongues match up, you see that the little tongues match up with the little slots. Drops in there. Then these drop over the pegs and you twist that back clockwise. Bob's your uncle. Now, if you, failed to put those tongues into the pegs and this will go down and it won't twist it. Won't go fully down. So make sure that those little pegs go in goes all the way down twist. And I said, that's all there is to it. While you have the top off the valve, just give the inside a clean with a rag with some soapy water and make sure that you've got a good seal on the top.
Now on this valve, the full flush is set by the height of the water. So that's determined by your inlet valve, higher the water, the bigger the flush is going to be. With the half flush, however, that's set by this middle float here. So the higher, the float, the less of a flush you're going to get the further down you push that float the bigger the half flush will be. So to adjust. We simply twist the float anti- clockwise looking down from the top. It's fairly stiff. Once you do that, it'll click and then we can move this up or down and position it whichever way we want and to lock it in, we just twist it back clockwise and that fixes it in place.
So now for the button in your pack, you should have a bezel, like.
two white pegs, a clear screwdriver and a little black screw and two buttons a round and a crescent shape. So the first thing you need to do is to screw your pegs in. These are both exactly the same, so they should screw in. No problem. If you have a problem, getting it started, just use your fingernail or a blunt knife to just clean up the end of that thread and make sure that's clear. And that screws into the end there. A firm twist, but not too hard. Screw the other one in, a twist. Then you put the system lid on over that and your button fits down over those pegs. Now the button will only go one way. And if your button is in the right way, it'll slide straight in. If it was in the wrong way, it just won't go in. That'll slide straight down. It's in place there's a little bit of a click. Then you can put your screw in. The screw, goes down into the middle, and you can tighten that up with a little screwdriver.
If you want to go harder, you can put another screwdriver down there and use that to twist it. But I wouldn't recommend going too hard with it. If it's too loose, if it loosens off, you can always tighten it back up again. But if you screw it too tight, it could be in trouble. Once you've done that, now you can put your buttons in. So the first one to go in will be the round button. And that goes in over the peg. The Crescent button will only go one way. So you have to figure that out first and then put your round one in the other hole. So it goes over the peg. The little piece there that goes over the peg and just pushes down. Then your Crescent, it goes over the other peg and it will also push in to that little hole.This extra piece goes into the little hole there that pushes straight in, and that's in. Now, if you want to take the button out, you press down the round button. And there's a little square hole there. You get a little screwdriver. And you hold that down. You'd flip that, flick out the other button. You can do it actually with your fingernail and then you take out the round button.
It just pops off, unscrew the screw and your button will come straight out. Your system, lid lifts off and that's all there is. Thanks for watching. Don't forget to look us up on toiletspares.com.au.

Very helpful run through on how to get things right with the Roca dual flush. Thanks Harry.
You're very welcome james, thanks for the comment.
My toilet broke and this guide helped me massively. Thanks Richard!
Many thanks for being so clear. No plumber available for days so trying myself.
Thank you, so useful and so clearly presented - meant even I could make a successful repair
Awesome! Thank you from Barcelona!!
Tks Harry another useful skill acquired.
Perfect. Saved us from hiring plumber and ordering parts
Clear, concise and correct. Tks a lot.
Great, thanks so much...exactly what I needed..!
Crucial part is avoiding breaking plastic when twisting and locating small lugs accurately. All covered clearly...thanks (My plumber damaged the originals. Maybe he should have watched your vid!)
Great tutorial thanks 👍
man, this was a good help for me!
Thanks for your help.
Just had a new one fitted - only time I've been able to find out what the make was - so now I look up this and find I could have bought myself and fitted easily.
Maybe next time Nicholas...
This is the second one for the basement bat. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxOuLt8IL_GxhhaK8DBuKEL-zV0UJVpWZn , works great
Thanks. Very useful and clear presentation. One additional thing.. I found that the top of the unit did not sit exactly onto the cistern top. I redid it, and by adjusting the pegs by not screwing them in fully, I was able to adjust the effective top of the unit. Thanks again
Did you try to unscrew the white pegs? (as mentionned at 3:05) ?
I didn't notice you could do that to adjust the button height. That was the fix I was looking for for hours :)
Thanks
Thanks Richard, useful video. Any clues on how to change just the rubber seal? I live in a hard water area so a couple of ours have gone - I have replacements but can't work out how to separate the seal from the mechanism!
Can you put a video on how to change the Diaphragm Silicone Valve? Or could you tell us how to do it?
I have the older Roco duai buttons. I've got two that the button broke. Since I can't find replacements. These newer installs of the right length assembly. Mine is a deep tank.
Just watched this video as I need to replace just the 2 buttons on the top (moon and sun). But your video does not allow for fitting the cistern top back on as the lip of the metal column is too big to go through the hole in the cistern lid!. I will have to do it through the hole in the top of the cistern lid.
Mine has button pads inside, so the screws do not have anywhere to screw into. But the replacement part looks just like the broken bit.
Thank you! I have a question: after water flushes, the float drops and the cistern seals, then the cistern starts to fill up. How come the float doesnt float upward and unseal the cistern?
Managed to buy new clear seal bottom of rica Dama flush. Everything went well. Buttons flush when fitted as before. BUT pushing flys button it jerks up and stops flush I now have to hold down til finished flushing. White pegs are as before. I’m stumped to what would be causing this.
Before you pushed button down and walked away and it flushed and filled up with water … buttons not working properly? Any ideas please. Thanks.
My Roca toilet simply doesn't fill up in the top after flushing (i manually fill it with water) will replacing this part fix the problem?
Great video thank you... Do you have any video for the Geberit 290
It just so happens.....ua-cam.com/video/HqR5IWmF4q0/v-deo.html
I didn't find it that easy to separate into two parts, although I did manage in the end. Any suggestions for making it easier please?
It is just a case of twisting them but yes, they do take quite a bit of force. My only practical suggestion if you are struggling is to use 2 people, one on each end.
Thank you for the video. Can someone explain how the flush works on these toilets. There are 2 buttons. Which is short and which is long? Can I press both together? Can I press and hold?
Smallest button is half flush, largest button is full flush. They should flush with one push but press and hold if you wish.
OK - but HOW do they work. When I got the old one off the fitter BOTH buttons seemed only to operate the same lever ?@@richardharrison6439
@@nicholasnickson7254 Can't say for sure but I suspect it must be how far the lever is lifted
I am getting a “hammer” noise after pushing the flush button. This happens when i just push the button. If i release the button slowly the “hammering” stops.
I have tried adjusting the blue part up and down but the problem is the same.
Is there anything i could do about this?
Thank you!
You would need to check with a plumber I suspect.
Great video, have taken mine apart due to water running into the toilet bowl. Rubber seal cleaned and seems ok (have cleared it and top side of valve 1:55 (still screwed in to bottom of cistern)), but still leaks water into the bowl. Looks like the previous owner has snapped the tongs so it won't locate the pegs (1:50), but it still drops straight down and doesn't sit proud. Could that be why its still running? not sure why, if its not causing it to sit proud above the tongs as the weight of the assembly pushes it down - its clearly been broken for a while and hasn't caused running water into the bowl? anything i'm missing? Thanks much appreciate this vide.
I should add this is all without having placed the lid back on the cistern. Just with the top valve 'placed' on the bottom basket bit which is secured to the bottom of the cistern.
If with the water shut off the cistern water level is going down then its the outlet valve, probably the silicone washer.
@@rogerpattube thanks, replaced the flush valve (with new washer - all now working.
Hi can you tell how do i change the bottom rubber washer in these flush valves
We don't sell those separately but will have a look when I get more in stock
Hey my guy! At 0:45 that grey seal ring thing at the bottom, mines fucked, are they easier enough to replace? Looks like you can buy them, and I have 2 to fix so would be cheaper. Is there a knack/process to it?
Washer only costs £3 from
When i tried this all went fine but both the buttons fell into the chrome socket and will not sit flush with the top of the cistern
there is a small plastic peg in the large flush button that stops them sinking down. I'm currently trying to replace just that peg without having to buy the whole button again! Wish me luck 😕
I’ve fixed mine this morning by adjusting the two white pegs by unscrewing them more so they sit higher and the buttons sit on them. I wonder if this will fix your issue too…
Once lid is back on , the toilet keeps leaking water into the bowl ! How to adjust ? Toilet doesn' leak with cistern lid off !
Having the same problem, did you fix it?
Screw threads down on pushes as they are forcing valve up
This product is garbage
Callum Stokes totally agree
schnap, buttons always go to shit, I currently have 2 toilets where the bottom ring has perished so the toilet is constantly bleeding water
