Hi I have just bought a LG GWL227YVQA. All plumb in and the water is from the mains, however after 32 liters of flushing out the system the water still tastes like poo!!! It a new fridge and filter any idea’s?

Raise the level of the water. The dual flush water levels are minimal by design, but need the full flush volume of water. There should be a level line inside the tank, go about a 1/2" above.

an old trick to remove water is to use methylated spirits in the tank with the petrol
It breaks the surface tension of the water down and allows it to go through the system with no ill affects
say about 3 liters to 50 liter petrol

DOES IT HAVE A FILTER IN THE SYSTEM? IF YES, CHANGE FILTER.

is there a knocking when you use the faucet or the pressure slams when you turn it off? that's water hammer. the air pockets that are supposed to be in the plumbing are depleted. most new plumbing have a length of pipe larger than the rest of the plumbing to hold air to avoid it. easiest way to fix this: turn off the water main. open up every faucet and flush every toilet until no more water flows. shut everything off again. slowly turn on the water main and the knocking and water hammer should disappear.

check the fresh water feed tank to the toilet is connected correctly and is that tank steel as it could be rusty ! ??

Hi,
The guts have worn and the hadle does not push the internal plunger far enough. Check your local plumbing supply house for a rebuild kit. The kit can be installed in a couple of minutes.

Look for your main plumbing vent that goes out your roof, is it pluged with a nest or something? When your drain system drains, it needs outside air from the vent to keep the system from vaccume lock. Same as vapor lock in the gas line on your vehicle. If the system is'nt getting air it will **** the water from the traps in your drain system like it is doing in your toilet. You may have to have a professional drain cleaner or plumber correct your pluged vent.
