WC siphon actuator
Sep 3rd, 2006, 6:39pm
 
I need to source a new rubber WC syphon actuator, the rubber has perished in this one.

I think the loo may be made in Italy.

Has anyone seen one/know where I could get a new one?

Thanks

Yes but it was not exactly local, I was hoping it was a standard part.

In theory my best bet is to replace the valve with aTorbeck drop valve but that involves removing the whole loo, as the pan is one of those that fits completely flush with the wall Sad
