Toilet Cistern Parts

A toilet cistern, or water tank, has many parts that work together to carry out the flushing mechanism after you use the toilet. These include the rubber flapper, fill valve, fill float, flush valve and chain, and the water tank itself.

Each component plays a role in keeping your cistern operational, like ensuring your flush system stores the right amount of water, flushes when the button or handle is engaged, and does not overflow or leak.

Functions of Critical Toilet Cistern Parts

It is good to know the parts inside your water tank in case you ever need a replacement. Here are some of them and their functions:

• Rubber flapper

This component keeps the cistern sealed, preventing water from flowing into the toilet bowl when you are not flushing.

• Flush valve and chain

A chain is attached to both the flush valve and the external handle or push button. When you activate the flush, the chain triggers the valve to raise the rubber flapper, allowing water to rush into the toilet bowl.

• Fill valve

The fill valve regulates water flow into the tank, ensuring that it is refilled once water has been released after flushing. It gauges the tank’s water level with an attached float.
