Excellent tutorial covering the key requirement of how to install the Estilo Cistern holding bracket which is sadly not detailed in the Instruction Sheet supplied with this great little unit.

@projectlex 25 дней назад

Yes the instructions are pretty vague, lucky you found my video! Thanks

Thank you for a great teaching video. I like to do smaller job’s myself when possible but I usually won’t attempt any plumbing work. But I feel confident enough that I can do this job. 👍

Great video. Just about to buy this exact cistern and couldn't believe there was a video showing how to install it. Very handy. Thanks

@projectlex Год назад

You’re very welcome, have fun with the install 👍

@smilebig1000 Год назад

awesome thanks for showing, I couldn't work out the bracket lol so easy, i used the holds on the wall and found out the L shape was to small lucky there was one in the box

Thank you for your video it helped me a lot. I installed the exact same cistern from Bunnings today.

@projectlex Год назад

Hi Remo, great job mate, glad it helped!

@MatthewJohnCrittenden Год назад

Just what I needed as someone handy but new to bog maintenance :) My existing ancient cistern has an overflow outlet also which seems to be unnecessary these days so will just block that off. Cheers.

Very easy to do & makes a huge difference

I will replace mine on Thursday. I have 3 toilets however 1 cistern is broken so I have to replace it. I am in Toowoomba from Sunday to Wednesday and tomorrow is Good Friday so the hardware shops are all closed. And I have Kenmore Village all day Saturday to see the Schindler 5400 AP MRL (Lifts) so I will replace the cistern on Thursday

@robinharwood5044 Год назад

Thanks. Exactly what I needed to see. I’m thinking of buying one, so it was good to see the process. Does it flush effectively? Is the inlet valve quiet ? And how do you get that blasted sticky label off? (Teeny point: that’s a spanner, not a wrench. I know Americans call spanners “wrenches”, but let’s stay Australian.)

@projectlex Год назад

You’re welcome. Yes effective flush & quiet. Haha should do a video on how to get it off… but peel what you can off then use a rag or paper towel with some eucalyptus oil. Haha yeah, but all the adjustable spanners at Bunnings are called wrenches so just keeping it simple for ease of others who need to buy the required tools

@robinharwood5044 Год назад

@@projectlex Thanks. I’ll definitely get one. My old dad was of the opinion that failure to distinguish between spanners and wrenches was a sure sign of engineering incompetence, so I’m sure he’d want me to burn Bunnings down. But I’ll leave that until I’ve got all the stuff I need. I’ll just hit them with disapproving sniffs for now.

What size masonry drill bit did you use for the plugs to go in the tiles?

@projectlex Год назад

Hi, I used a 6mm masonry drill bit

@rth268rth Год назад

@@projectlex after watching your video I went out and bought the exact same one. Followed your video and the cistern fit like a glove. Thankyou for an excellent video....👌👌
