Fluidmaster on Screwfix say suitable for high and low pressure systems so I am guessing these will be fine?
Thanks Best, I can order those from Amazon for delivery tomorrow. Cheers bud.
The cisterns are large so plenty of room, they should be fine. Cheers!Careful that they fit in cistern without catching side.
You don’t want a load of brand new fillvalves you end up having to sell on eBay

Was your boiler a changeover from a system that used tank water - to a combi boiler?
Just was thinking maybe mains high pressure water going to toilets that were low pressure might have required toilet valves to be modified or replaced
Sorry, me again.
Just because the OP had a low pressure HW system does NOT mean it was low pressure cold to the toilet. Whilst it is entirely possible, it is AS likely that he had LP HW & HP CW. I have come across both in all areas of the UK.
To then complain that the original installer was wrong is, IMHO, also wrong because none of us here know the facts. By talking this way we condemn a person who may be entirely innocent.
Again IMHO, it is as entirely likely that having turned off the house supply to do this change, when turned back on it has washed debris into the valves - as we have ALL experienced - and is therefore the 'fault' of no one as on one could have predicted or seen that the supply had debris lying in it.
Personally, I'd try to understand who it was piped before replacing willy nilly. If it was an HP system then I'd simply replace the washers/diaphragms rather than replace all fill valves.
Agree, I was only mentioning it was a possibility of tank water fed toilets converted to mains. But it is a strong possibility.
Would seem strange that all 4 toilets now overflow, if dirt had been disturbed. Never has that number happened to me.
I know if toilets have older type part3 valves, they could simply have a hp seating and new diaphragm washer fitted, but terrible valves on high pressure and too noisy.
My region, most houses unless fairly modern had mainly tank fed toilets, so common here for new combi to require toilet fillvalves altered.
