Geberit TYP290 Dual Flush Outlet Valve Installation

Adam Powell of Powell Plumbing demonstrates how to install the Geberit TYP290 Dual Flush Outlet Valve in a closed-coupled cistern.

The Geberit Outlet Valve TYP290 supersedes the TYP280. The all new dual flush valve is an ideal upgrade for the TYP280 and TYP250 as it fits the original base installed in the cistern. The bright chrome dual flush button is a new style and easier to operate. The valve is designed for close coupled cisterns and available in a retrofit version that suits multiple sized button holes. A long tail base is available as an accessory for cisterns connect with a flush pipe.

Compatibility
TYP250 and TYP280 valves can be changed to TYP290 without replacing the basket. TYP260 is not compatible with TYP290. Fit a complete new valve and basket or order a TYP260 replacement valve.
Replacing Other Valves:
- check cistern depth: 325-465mm (standard 272.400.21.1), 460-600mm (add 243.430.00.1)
- check basket TYPe: close coupled (basket comes with valve), linked cistern (add 241.825.00.1)
Note: if replacing TYP280 or TYP250 the basket is compatible and can be reused.
