Since Caroma don't show you how to replace the washer in this video, DON'T TRY TO UNSCREW THE RETAINING RING FROM THE END OF THE TUBE - IT DOES NOT UNSCREW! To replace the outlet washer, stretch & pull the old washer off over the retaining ring. Fitting the new washer is the reverse - it's tight, but will go on. Make sure it's seated evenly around the inner groove so you get a good seal. Shame on you Caroma for not giving people the whole story. Sold many replacement tubes lately?
@bluewrenrest The flush valves do not need to be replaced every 2 years, at least not on the models available here in the US. Sorry should you have had a bad experience.
I just dismantled this style of toilet flush system and what isn't shown here is the removal of the float arm first so you can get the centre assembly out.
To remove the float arm on my unit I unscrewed the white plastic section holding the float to the inlet water system by hand, I then pry open the 4 plastic tabs which hold the centre section. Be careful doing this as the centre section might not come out as easy as it does on video and you might snap off the tabs The rubber washer

Someone needs to have a serious talk with Caroma. Making a system where this valve needs replacing every 2 years means that it must be junk.

Round bowl, easy height.

@Transdoc123 have you checked the water level? Just lift the lid on the tank and see if it is where the line is.

It's a Sydney smart 270

@Transdoc123 sorry for not asking this the first time: Is it a regular 270 round bowl or elongated? Regular height or 'Easy height'?

Is there any way to adjust the wash down pressure? It splashes too much.

@Transdoc123 do you know what kind of bowl and tank it is?

Hi,
I called our my Caroma rep to get an answer for your question - he said he would contact you. Did you receive a response from him?
