1/2 Inch Part 2 Ball-Cock Valve with Ball/Float

Installed into high level Victorian style cistern - which a lot of standard float valves do not fit into - fits perfectly - took 10 to 15min to take out the old one and install the new one, set level and leave to test - I was tempted to buy a repair kit for the old one as it was just weeping through the valve, the old float was larger and would sometimes clunk when flushed so opted for this unit - but for the cost and speed solved two problems in one.

Exactly what i needed

Nothing really to dislike easy fit the hardest job was turning the water off. A nice piece of kit.

Good quality item that works exactly as it should.

Ideal for job...DoneFixed

To remedy the load foghorn sound in the cold water tank and purchased this to replace old fill valve. In future I will just replace the washer.

This was a straight replacement for one that had been fitted over eight years before.It was simple to fit, I liked the ability to position the float deeper by having the rod bend at 90 degrees and having an adjustable fitting to attach the float.The brass rod that holds the float could be broken with heavy handling, but it is all away from prying hands.The water outlet is away from float switch so it should take longer to chalk up thanks to hard water than the previous version.

Very simple well-made item.Arrived within 12 hours of ordering.Price only a little more than the price of a pack of washers (which hadn’t worked).Easy to fit. Matched the forty year old item it was replacing.Can be done with an adjustable spanner and wrench. (Advise removing the white screw-in pipe first though before any work as it’s delicate.)
