Does that mean that some cisterns have an internal adjustment or an alternative float?

 

Or can the float be adjusted appropriately in some circumstances?

 

Already answered, but yes. They show you the settings for 3 and 6 litres, but there is nothing stopping you setting it as high as the cistern will take, which when I have looked at them looks like how they are set.

 

Older toilets often have holes in the rim that the water comes through slowing it down. Newer toilets send the water round the rim more quickly and flush better, I don't know what kind of toilet the original one is.

BTW American public toilets are weird, in the stalls, doors start at knee height and finish at shoulder height and the gap between door jamb and at the fastening side is a good half inch, it’s almost if they design in a lack of privacy

 

I noted that and asked my brother who has lived there for 20 years or so, it's apparently to reduce the use of narcotics, seems just plain weird to me.
