Title: Flush valves
Post by CWatters on Jul 6^th, 2014, 12:16am

Anyone know if the Fluidmaster flush valve...

can be used with a standard handle? I have a nice ceramic handle on a square shaft I'd like to retain.

Not usually CW, they are press button for large or small flush

Pity. Might have to go for a flapper type flush valve as it's proving difficult to find something that will fit in my cistern alongside a decent fill valve.

Have a look at the Fluidmaster Pro 750UK.

It comes with a lever that goes up or down depending on the full or half flush, I doubt it will work with your handle but maybe worth a try.

Problem sorted. Looks like the Fluidmaster fill valve will just about fit in alongside the existing syphon.
