when you flush our toilet handle.. its l ike a foghorn noise how do you stop that its driving us fecking nuts
How funny, before watching this video I watched a much younger you changing a side fill valve on exactly the to same toilet!
Thanks PP exactly what I needed, including the chirpy commentary 😄 you are fab 👌🏻
Just finished fitting mine, took ur advise and worked perfectly, thank you very much, took 10minutes, quick job, easily done
Thanks so much for your video, I just fitted a side entry valve and being a layman I couldn't stop the leak.. Just watching ur video and seeing how u tightened everything up (me not trying to tighten more than 1/4 turn...) did just the trick... Thanks.
Thanks Cockney plumber man! With your help i've replaced my toilet flush! We love you!
Thank you for this and to George for his essential supervision.
Happy is the man that fixed a leak by using brass and rubber ! Thanks.
Nice design, works well and very easy to set up.
I love your videos!!! This was one of my favorite videos!!! I always love to watch videos where toilets are fixed up! make more videos like these :)
Cheers dude! Will do! PP!
thankyou .... we used a plastic insert before seeing your video. The store said it was the way to go. . It worked fine.
love the vids bud! quick question,i have a close coupled loo and the water pressure seems really weak when if gets flushed. how do i turn it up ?
Thanks for the video, very informative. can I ask - how would you shorten the brass stem on a new valve if it's too long (without it leaking)?
Nice video, it is what I needed.
Had a horror job today involving a flexi hose not threading on to a cheap nylon threaded inlet valve. The brass one makes a lot more sense. Thanks
Helpful thank you!
You said this little kit has 2 nuts, it appears that there are 3 😉 thanks for a simple to follow video & entertainment 😊
my beautiful friend
you will make a sad person in to happy person
thank you to the repairs you have done
from London
No worries! Glad to help!
great vid cheers.
I commend you for your manning up and still making a video despite having man flu good vid as always :)
Hi there, great video.
Mine seems very slow filling up. Anyway of adjusting it to flow faster?
paid a 'plumber' big bux to fix my toilet and kept the same ole piece of perished plastic back in and it broke...I'm buying one of these, and putting it myself!...thanks for the vid buddy! x
couldn;t you please provide link to the fill valve you used in your video so we can buy one too?
Hi,could you do a video about how to fix noisy pipes when toilet flushed and filling up the water tank please?any advices please? THANKS
Hello 👋 thanks for the great video…does anyone know the size of rubber washer I should get to put on the copper thread and squash by the copper nut?
Is it the same principle for a side entry ball valve? Am I correct in thinking I need a low pressure one as well?
something I have been looking for for a long time is a way to adapt a cistern filler like that to supply a basin tap, the basin waste then goes into the cistern. not looking for an all in one as they are generally either ugly or the wrong style. Got any hints?
Hello PP. And George lol. Great vid.
Cheers!
Very clear
Hey PP. I'm shocked and amazed that you decided to use my 'never mind the ballcocks' idea. Top man!!! It's the one and only good idea that I've ever had LOL.
And Happy New Year to you and the tabby dude.
Also, lovin' the George appearences.
woodbine66 Ha, Have you got it in the post yet? PP!
***** Hi, no I haven't had anything yet. There's a big space on my fridge waiting for the unveiling.
***** That space on my fridge is 'Pretty Vacant' right now.
Hope you don't mind, I sent an email to you.
I love your videos
Cheers mate!
Get well soon dude ! hold tight !
Great video nice cat, sorry about your man flu.
Just wondered what the rubber washer is called in/on the copper pipe? What am I looking for at Screwfix?
Hi there i have fitted a side entry fill valve, there doesnt seem to be sealing washer on the inlet union pipe, is there supposed to be a fibre or rubber washer, it weeps a bit i have put a load of ptfe tape round ot, also when it fills up there is a horrible groaning noise for about 15 seconds...i see on you video there should be something, i suppose it is likely to leak without one...any advice Please Fred in Essex.
How do you take off the back off toilet if you have a black panel like the one in the video...mine doesn't have wing nuts
thank you!
No worries!
feels good
Out with the flush king...
Useful vid. Have you considered trying decaf? :)
What rubber washer do I need?
My actual connection to the valve is leaking,whats the best way to re connect and seal please.
I spent 144 quid to have a Plummer to fit the Dudley valve on a concealed cistern like this.
75 quid per half hour and Vat and part.London rate.Now I know what to do.
Hey. Can you recommend any flush units for a close coupled toilet
Lewis Heffernan FlushKing are good.
I bought one of this side entry valves (made by Dudley) instead of the plastic one I'm replacing. I’ve a few questions on this….does anyone know the size of the rubber washer that goes into the into the nut (2.45) as it leaks when I do up the nut?
What I also found is that if you place the back nut on first (as in 3.15) …it doesn’t go right to the end (as the thread stops about an 1/4 inch from the grey cyclinder), therefore making the shank about 1/2 inch too short to connect up to the water pump. Is putting the back back nut (not the 2nd back nut to secure the valve to the cistern casing) necessary or should I buy a washer that sits against the grey housing?
Thanks for posting this vid.
👋 hello….did you ever find the size of the washer? I just wondered I have the same issue! Cheers
I've just fitted a fill valve and it was a old flush King to a dudley
Excellent!
Hello, are all valves Interchangeable in all toilets that looking like yours in this video?
Have you Please the link to the valve in the Video for me?
My Girlfriends cat looks exactly like yours :-)
Regards Thomas
Hi Tom, most are. Just make sure they are side of bottom entry first! SUBSCRIBE! ➡️👉 ua-cam.com/users/plumberparts 👈⬅️if you haven't already!
If you get time id love a video on water softeners......HOLD TIGHT!
I think we've done one....check our channel! Good luck, PP!!!
It's not clear to see but I thought those sheaths where banned due to back siphonage? Or is there an air gap at the top of it?
Yes mate.
That's why its leaking. I forgot to put a rubber washer in. Cheers mate.
Where do you buy your pretty red bras from?
Stuart Johnson Asda....
Today I dismantled my side entry toilet valve which has a number of rubber washers. I wonder why you replaced the entire toilet valve rather than just the washers? I am going to replace mine because the damned thing leaks even when the water has reached it's right height. My existing side valve has a plastic thread so thanks for the tip of going for a brass one.
No worries mate!
Sub here please>> ua-cam.com/users/plumberparts
is it hard
My problem is that my side entry valve doesn't come through the side of the cistern as shown on the video. It is attached somehow to the back wall of the cistern, glued perhaps. It's also not easy to see how to turn the water off. There is a metal device very close to the valve with a square head and screwdriver slot, but this is seized. The only solution would be to turn the mains water off under the kitchen sink. I think I'll just have to call a plumber out.
Love the vids and Mrs PP's red bra... Nice :)
Ha! That's my bra!
*****
Really??? What size bra do you wear?
also the buttons keep popping out,how do i stop that? sorry will leave you in peace now :)
Nylon shanked fill-valves.... dreadful. I've been slipping a nice tap extender on to the little buggers, saves me cross-threading the bloody thing!
We've all been there!
yes cats are always right.
Isolating valve!?
Yeah, exactly... mine's fed from a header tank and has no isolator. Gotta shut off the mains supply and drain the entire tank first. Fortunately the filler valve isn't broken yet, but someday it will happen...
igotes Ha! Unlucky bro! When you've got it drained down and cut one in....good luck! PP! :)
Was brushing your head off the bra @ 1:50 deliberate? 😅😅😅
that red bra
