Ideal Standard Armitage Shanks EV344AA Chrome Push Button

Product Information

Ideal Standard’s universal bottom entry inlet valve is the most recommended one for use in bottom entry toilet cisterns. Then there is the requirement to save water by not flushing large amounts down toilets. That led to there being a choice between a large or small amount of flushing water. Consequently you now get selection buttons and complex mechanisms instead of leavers to actually move water about. Also people want to have hidden cisterns and remote buttons. These all add to the complexity. Are you looking to replace your old push button for your Ideal Standard bathroom suite toilet then this push button is for a dual flush Armitage Shanks / Studio toilet models from the Ideal Standard brand. E785501 Concept Arc close coupled cistern with dual flush valve, delayed fill - 4 or 2.6 litre flush

S426601 Sandringham Select close coupled cistern with dual flush valve, delayed fill - 4 or 2.6 litre flush NOTE: The buttons can remain on the spindles so long as each button is rotated 180° to produce a gap between them.

If your pneumatic flush valve is not flushing properly, it very well means that not enough pressure is being developed to lift the valve’s flushing assembly. In such scenarios, disconnect the pneumatic tube that is attached to your push button and blow down the tube.And if the valve still does not lift properly, it will more than likely be the bellows washer. And if the valve lifts with ease, the issue might be with the button instead. In such a case, you need to buy the button only, as many make the mistake of purchasing a full valve at the first sign of any flushing issue.

Opening Dual-Flush Toilet Cisterns for Armitage Shanks Ascania Toilets Squeeze the buttons on both of the ratchets’ pawls (pointed to in the picture). That will press the pawls into the mechanism together to disengage them from the ratchets. Then pull the Bridge up. This is difficult because the plastic is a bit too strong to squeeze. I have failed to squeeze them both at the same time, even with the mechanism out of the cistern. When the mechanism is in situ, it may be easier using a ‘third hand’ to pull the Bridge up while using both hands to squeeze.

I think the main reason for modern cisterns being like they are is: People require them to fit into smaller spaces than they did years ago. Fill valves had a long arm with a big ball float on in the past. That took up a lot of space. So now these have been compacted into a much smaller volume.
