Low-level toilet cistern FAQs
What is a toilet cistern?
A toilet cistern is essentially a tank holding the water needed for flushing after a toilet has been used. There are different types of toilet cisterns, including:
- Low-level toilet cisterns - these are sited behind and just above the toilet pan, showing a short flush pipe.
- High-level toilet cisterns have a more traditional and Victorian feel as they feature long flush pipes and are typically mounted onto shelf brackets.
- Close-coupled toilet cisterns conceal pipework and are usually bolted directly to the toilet pan, forming a single unit.
- Concealed toilet cisterns, like close-coupled toilet cisterns, also conceal pipework, but the toilet cistern itself is hidden behind panelling. These are a great option for more modern bathrooms.
How to fit a low-level toilet cistern
You should always follow the instructions for your specific toilet cistern and hire a professional to carry out the work if you are not experienced enough to ensure everything is installed correctly. If you are not familiar with the process, this is how to fit a low-level toilet cistern:
- Mount the cistern to the wall, ensuring the top of the cistern is 1100mm above the ground. You can secure the toilet cistern to the wall using appropriate fixings.
- Add the O-ring, chrome cover, compression nut, flush cone and compression washer to the flush pipe.
- Insert the flush pipe into the bottom of the toilet cistern, then tighten the compression nut to secure it. PTFE tape can also be applied to ensure a watertight seal.
- Place the cover over the compression fitting and adjust the O-ring so it remains in position.
- The flush pipe and flush cone are inserted into the toilet pan's inlet hole, and the pipework is connected to the water supply.
How does a toilet cistern work?
The toilet cistern features a fill valve which fills the cistern with water after the toilet is flushed. It knows when to refill the tank (and when to stop) with the help of a float at the top of the fill valve. When the float is under its set point, more water fills the tank and stops when it reaches its point. This process ensures that there is enough water to flush the toilet after each use.
How to clean a toilet cistern
If you need to clean your toilet cistern, remove the lid, shut off the water valve and flush your toilet until all the water has drained. Spray the cistern's interior with disinfectant (not bleach, as it is corrosive) and leave it for 15 to 20 minutes. After this time, you can use a scrub brush to tackle stubborn stains and wipe away dirt. Finally, you can turn the water on and let the tank refill, flushing the toilet to check that everything is working as normal.
Are toilet cisterns a standard size?
The size of toilet cisterns can vary across different styles and models, but for a low-level toilet cistern, the average size is 455mm in width, 350mm in height and projects about 230mm out from the wall. That said, you can find smaller and larger low-level toilet cisterns should you require them.
