Torbeck for Lisa

Changing a torbeck valve diaphragm

[@andydavidson2793]

Your instructions here enabled a 14 year old carer to do this job for her disabled mum. Many thanks from two families.

I'm not a plumber but I managed to fit a Torbeck valve in a small cistern. What I can say is buy a new diaphragm as the one supplied was useless. It started dripping after a few days and it's because the diaphragm is not for purpose. They're a couple of quid and will save you a serious headache.

Lifesaver! After a frustrating half hour trying to reassemble the valve, I found your video! Job done in minutes! Thank you!

Thank you boss, i was having existential crisis before fixing it using this video

[@deschumber659]

Lots and lots of videos but this one explains the best.Thank you

[@ts.nathan7786]

I have seen many videos about the ball valve. But you are the only one who explained about the notch in the valve. Congrats.

I'm not Lisa but thank you for this

[@steveturner6528]

Thanks, very useful. Followed closely and even realised I had one with the metal pin. Would have not realised that without your kind video.What I didn't spot is the little rubber plug had dropped out of the new arm. Assembled everything but water did not stop. When I saw the plug lying on the table I realised where it went - needed to block hole in the valve. Reassembled it and everything worked well. Here's looking to another 21 years of reliable operation!

I have one of these valves in my toilet and the water has started spraying from the top (square holes next to the arm thing @ 0:06) of the valve when I flush the toilet which then leaks out of the cistern soaking my bathroom floor. Can you give me an idea what's wrong?

Thankyou. Panic stations here until I watched this, diverted my wife's journey home via B&Q to buy a new diaphragm. 10 minutes after she got home - job done!

Many thanks! Been shouting at the cistern for a couple of hours before finding your video. Fixed in five mins.

Thank you so much for this extremely detailed and helpful video. This is exactly what I was looking for has having issues with the diaphragm in a new toilet excellent instruction.

Thank you great help. Having forgetting which way it went in , and not realising it had to click into place eventually found your video and 5 min job. I could kiss ya !!

Thanks for posting this. Big, Big help when I had to take off the float arm from new valve (just fitted) to check what was causing a constant drip from the blue nut at the top. Probably hadn't put it together correctly at the start. All seems OK now. Cheers MrCrass :-).... Hope Lisa managed OK!

I've been struggling to get a plumber to replace my fill valve but after seeing this I realise I may be able to fix it myself ... thanks!!

Hey thanks. Your video for Lisa helped me clean and reassemble my Torbeck valve and stop a slow continuous overfill :)
