Coffin Tank - Noisey Ballcock.
Referring to my previous post...
I fitted a 18" x 18" x 64" Coffin tank in my loft but the supplied ballcock was very noisey when shutting off due to the slow rate of rise of the water level in a tank of this shape. Several 'Gurus' suggested a Torbeck valve as a replacement. I fitted this device last night and............ peace and quiet. The Torbeck shuts off quickly and with minimum noise. x-- 100 Proof News - http://www.100ProofNews.com x-- 30+ Days Binary Retention with High Completion x-- Access to over 1.9 Terabytes per Day - $8.95/Month x-- UNLIMITED DOWNLOAD |

I think it was about =C2=A37.50 from B & Q.
Apparently Screwfix do them cheaper but I just had a small window of opportunity to do= the job. x-- 100 Proof News - http://www.100ProofNews.com x-- 30+ Days Binary Retention with High Completion x-- Access to over 1.9 Terabytes per Day - $8.95/Month x-- UNLIMITED DOWNLOAD |
