If it helps the outside diameter of the drinking water hose is appears to be 10mm.
So I'm looking for a way to connect a 10mm flexible hose to a 1/4" steel threaded pipe.
After being unable to get at the drinking water cartridge on my three way tap I've bought a dedicated tap. However connecting it is proving tricky. The first one I bought came with two quick fit push connectors. One was 1/4" to 1/4" which the hose wouldn't fit into. It fit into the 1/4" to 3/8"...
Thanks I'll give that a try. I really hope it's not time for a new tap because I have a low pressure system (.1 bar likely) and it's very difficult to find that kind of tap.
Hi,
I have one of these and the drinking water tap has started to leak (the side not shown in the video). I can't work out how to get at that cartridge. The handle can be unscrewed which gives partial site of some brass (probably the shaft of the cartridge) but the head seems solidly attached...
I have a four year old fridge/freezer that's working fine but there's rust on one side near the bottom. Not just spots but obvious corrosion and lost metal. Does this have any significance beyond the cosmetic aspect? There doesn't appear to be anything leaking and I think it's just where some...
Over the last couple of weeks there have been a couple of days when my hot water cylinder didn't get heated in the morning. My central heating is working fine however. I've been investigating it and have found something puzzling.
When I first moved into this house over 20 years ago I replaced...
Hmmm. This is interesting:

It's a series of articles. They seem to imply that I will need some rewiring in order for the boiler to be able to operate the valve. Also it's best advised to upgrade the cylinder 'stat. There's also an issue around...
So you think that's what he might have been getting at?
I assume that since OT is low voltage and digital it must rely on the boiler to start the pump (which it clearly can do since it can force an overrun) but you've made me wonder now what causes the valve to change position. Normally the...
I have an Intergas boiler that supports OpenTherm and currently a 7-day digital thermostat (Honeywell CM67). The thermostat is getting long in the tooth so I'm thinking about replacing it with a T4M which is OpenTherm. I've had a look at the wiring on the control panel and discovered that at...
Thanks for that. I'm giving the CM67 one last chance as it's been a faithful servant for many years. But it seems to let the house get warmer in the evening despite it showing the same temperature. Another thermostat on the opposite side of the room claims 1c warmer.
It does only run for half...
Hi.
How difficult would it be to replace a Honeywell CM67 with a CM707? From the installation guides it appears that the wiring should be the same - just move the wires across to the same lettered terminals.
I don't mind paying for an electrician if I have to but assuming that Honeywell...
Washing machine seems fine at both ends. It's only the dishwasher hose. FWIW the washing machine has the manufacturer's hose which looks a lot more chunky at the connectors.
Thanks for that. So if the connectors are currently holding it means the hose is (finally!) attached properly? I'm sorry to be a pain but I have a real paranoia where plumbing is concerned :oops:
Gimme life threatening electricity to deal with over a poxy drip anyday. At least electricity...
I use an extension (2.5m) hose for my dishwasher and for the past few months I've battling with the damn' thing to get both ends watertight. I've read up on all the does and don'ts and replaced the hose to no avail until recently. I've currently got it set up where each end has an extra washer...
