I recently got a new toilet fitted and I think I bought the wrong type of inlet valve for my apartment building - i.e. one that requires a pumped system.

I figure it must be fairly cheap to fix as it's a few pieces of plastic but I can't find a suitable one online.

It basically looks like this:


So it's coming in through the bottom of the toilet - just not enough pressure to fill the toilet quickly.

My last toilet didn't flush properly due to it being broken and I wanted to get a lower capacity system on the new toilet. This 30-min filling time is taking water saving measures to a new level though.

My tank is about 4-feet above the top of the valve so the pressure is always going to be pretty low.

Any tips appreciated to get me back in the flow again.
