I'm a US transplant in Spain and this toilet gave me the works until I saw this video and how easy it is to remove and install the top buttons/cap. Thank you!!!!!
Thanks for the clear and concise instructions. I couldn't see how to safely remove the dual flush system to clean that valve. With your help I removed that dual flush without snapping anything. V happy.
Thank you for your video. It took my hours to discover there were other broken parts as well as the buttons. After hours of trying to line up the rods, I did it. Me a stupid female too. Saved myself a big plumbers bill. Thanks again,
Huge thanks for this video. I have this exact system in my toilet, broke it initially when taking the top off without realising you had to remove a screw. Bought a replacement and fixed it within a couple of minutes. Thank you!
Many thanks. I thought I had a mains leak as my water bill doubled. It was the internal toilet overflow wasting water. After a some hours of frustration with a new unit in bits!! replaced adjusted and working again. Quite simple when you know how. I will keep my fingers crossed for a few days. There has to be a better flush invention waiting to be discovered
That's ok and glad it helped. I agree the system isnt very good and you can see water dribbling down the inside of the for quite a while after flushing.
Loved the video, but had one of a hell time getting the top part to un-latch from the bottom. So much so that it moved the part that stays in in bottom of the cistern, now the buttons are not in the correct position.e. left and right but now at 45degrees to where there were but that saved me taking out the whole cistern to reposition everything as I could not get the base unit to go back to where it had been. again spot on video, I would have never have done it without your help thanks.
This was really helpful for when I broke my friendship by taking the lid off to ''''pretend''' to wee in it. It broke so we had to fix it but lots was going wrong. We used this video to help us but we didnt really need it because we managed ourselves. Let me know if anyone needs a plubmber because now it is us
Thanks a lot. I messed up a bit when i tried to put those blue/green circle blocks in there an thought I'd broken it! Your video was clear and showed every step of the way, Thanks a lot % Minute Man(!)
Thank you so much. I had trouble fitting the top part that clips on that the buttons fit into...for AGES so gave up and just used the other loo. FINALLy it's fixed and working as it should. Thanks so much for making this video. :-)
@@fiveminuteman I spoke too soon!! Now the buttons keep getting stuck. At the moment they are completely wedged down inside the casing. Lord knows how to get them out. I've tried for ages :-( I had to unscrew the height adjustment parts so they are almost all the way out and Im not convinced they should be like this. It looks like you have longer ones in the video..
@@investigatecz7310 if it's all locking up loosen the securing screw and from memory make sure the low and full flush buttons are on the correct side. I remember locking mine up because I had the whole thing the wrong way round.
@@fiveminuteman I finally got the buttons out and opened everything up again and put it back bit by bit testing the flush after adding each part, all good until both buttons back in place and same issue againGuess what? Ive got it backwards too! I'm going to reverse it. Wish me luck!
It all works!! It was totally backwards :-) Also I thought one button was full flush and one was half flush then I realised full flush means both buttons are depressed. I'm so happy this is fixed, thanks to you! THANK YOU!!
How do you get that grey washer off at the bottom? (the bit you said you might keep) I have 2 that are fucked and need to replace them but don't want to force anything. At 3:01
Hi,would you advise how to adjust the value flow outside water more ,as the water flow out is too little and stop now, but 0the tank still hold with high volume. Thanks.
TThank you. After water flushes, the float drops and the cistern seals, then the cistern starts to fill up. How come the float doesnt lift and unseal the cistern?
@@fiveminuteman Im describing the normal operation. There is a float - yours is blue. Floats do what floats do which is to float on top of water. So how come when the tank fills up with water the float defies physics and doesnt float to the top? If it did obey physics it would lift the seal and releasing the water? Why does it stay closed? What magic stops the float from floating?
So I have exactly the same mechanism, except the blue bit is styro. I took it out last week and it started leaking after reinserting. I bought a new valve, but it's still leaking. Any advice? Or can't be that complicated, right?
We have a roca flush thingy and I have ordered the new part, but it doesnt turn and click into the bottom base already in the toilet, how do I replace the base, does it screw out??
I ordered this AH004800R valve to replace my old worn out one not realising it needed a new D2D push button which I've just received. Unfortunately it's too short! Don't order the "new style short" one like me. : (. Helpful video
Just one quirky issue. When you push the new unit down there are flat lugs on the plastic piece just above the rubber seal that need to line up exactly with the piece screwed into the cistern. If they don't line up it is impossible to clip the new unit into place.
how do you remove and empty all the water in the toilet if it is clogged. ive tried a plunger but doesnt seem to eampty, and ive turned the cut off valve but it doesnt seem to be doing anything
Use a thin bladed screwdiver and carefully prise the bottom bit off. You then find it is keyed onto the shaft so next time line up the keys if you know where they are. If you use the right spanner you will find that the bottom bit rotates with sufficiernt force but I have been unable to find a way of locating the keyes to make removing it easier. But just do it. It works.
At 2:19 - that top long piece piece with the blue ring around it. Can you please tell me what it is that called. Mine has cracked and is now spraying water everywhere. I had to turn the water off to the toilet as it's filling still via the crack even when the level has stopped.
heya great video im trying to fix my roca toilet atm but but for some reason when I put the plastic rods into the top part of the valve and screw then in they dont move down at all even when I push them down hard meaning I cant actualy flush the toilet is there a fix for this? thanks
Solonduin I had a similar issue where the plastic rods were not seated properly when putting the lid on. I think it took a couple of goes at making sure they were not trapped when replacing the lid.
when I screw the rods into the plastic housing adaptor bit they dont seem to go below the actual housing meaning they smaller rods arnt touching the actual flush buttons? hope that sorta make sense. it look like in your video the rods are poking below the houseing even without the lid or screw on I still cant flush the loo
Solonduin what I remember is that the rods are adjustable so screw up and down. I also remember that if the rods were stuck the plastic insert in the cover was also adjustable.
Thank you your vid just helped me to set the height of the pushbuttons ...I workled out the rest by meself I had no breakage just a dirty seal (had half an inch of mud in the bottom......well water....through just two filters) Thanks again....I just couldn't work out the height setting for those damn buttons.
You need to adjust the length of the white plastic rods the buttons push into. They screw in to shorten and out to lengthen. They should have a slot so you can do with with a small flat headed screwdriver.
Can you just replace the silicone seal rather than the whole unit? If so how do you get the seal off, does the seal assembly unscrew, or is it a push fit - or do you just stretch the seal and pull it over the end?
topmarksman1 i had replaced the silicone ring but still found after a while it still dribbled water. I decided to change the complete top half. Id just replace the ring first and see if that fixes the leak.
@@fiveminuteman do you rmember if you just stretched the silicon ring over or is there a way to dismantle the part that holds the silicon ring in place?
@@fiveminuteman Thanks for taking the time to reply. I was referring to the seal at the base of the unit. It seems you grip the end with a wrench and twist, it pops off and allows the seal to be changed easily. Regards Anand
I've just replaced one of these,one question,I notice that the blue part is adjustable and there are numbers on the outer case does this alter the amount of water for the short flush? Thanks, Dave
When I installed my Roca toilet from new, the instructions indicated what number to set the blue float to. I don't if that also applies to the new replacements though.

Managed to identify and fit the correct part .All credit for your Very informative video Thank you
Great video, as other people have said, its the little tabs that are the tricky thing, if they aren't in alignment then we can't lock the piece in

Please can you tell me how to remove an old diaphragm washer? My one is very old, I have got a genuine new one but can't get the old one off. Thanks
It seems you grip the end with a wrench and twist, it pops off and allows the seal to be changed easily.
how do you remove and empty all the water in the toilet if it is clogged. ive tried a plunger but doesnt seem to eampty, and ive turned the cut off valve but it doesnt seem to be doing anything
Which other manufacturers are compatible with Roca?
hi ya where would i be able to get a new float inlet control lever as my water constantly running and the float not able to stop the water
I get my plumbing stuff off ebay, amazon or screwfix
Could you show how you put the screw driver in there in the first place?The rest is helpful but how do I get the initial water out??
very good . Excellent videowish some one can assist you to hold camera alest so you can use both hand and its quicker too.
Videos are made with the spare time and equipment i have at the time so not all videos are made using tripods and correct camera.
Thanks mate - saved me calling out a plumber
Great stuff👍
Thanks for this video. Really helped.
No problem 👍
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much.
😃 no problem
How do you adjust the water level in a tank?? I just can't get around it.🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
The float is adjustable.
@@fiveminuteman yeah i know it is adjustable. It just needed a little more muscle power to turn that blue thing. Everything ok now.🤝
