Hello esteemed experts,
I am converting a house which has been split into 2 flats, back into a single family home and I'd like to unify the two power supplies into one - to give me a single consumer unit on the ground floor. I've no intention of doing this myself so I'd really like to get an...
Hello all -
I've got an old Victorian house with a flank wall that's mildly deflected. The surveyor tells me I need to tie the wall into the building. However, I'm putting a bathroom in between two bedrooms so I'm removing the dividing wall that I could have strapped the flank wall into...
Hello
I've got a flank wall of a Victorian house that I need to strap into floor joists and rafters. The noggins between the joists and rafters make sense but I'm wondering how to fix the straps to a 100 year old wall that doesn't have cavities?
Thanks for any advice you can give me...
Thanks for your comments. Complicated to fix then by the sound of it ? I won't DIY it in that case! I was hoping someone would mention a leaky hose or summat (I saw this on some of the other similar posts).
I'm in Herne Hill, SE London. Where should I look for a good plumber?!
Out of...
Hi All
Wondering if someone could advise me on my boiler's patchy behaviour. It's a Biasi combi boiler installed in 2000. I'm trying to figure out if it's worth saving or to replace it.
It fires when the hot water is turned on and appears to work fine. Sometimes nothing happens and I...
Morning - My rear addition is 4 stories high and has a sloping roof. At the high end of the roof there is a parapet wall that's about 8 courses of bricks high. I've removed the chimney stack and made good the damage so the wall at one end is only 2 courses of bricks high. The rest of the...
Hello All - hope you can help
I have a Main System 28 HE boiler which was installed 5 weeks ago but not commissioned pending completion of the underfloor heating system. I tried to run it last night after filling to 1 bar pressure and it made all the right noises - the pump started up fine...
Hello again... Got the boiler plumbed in now. I've also got a water cylinder but that's using the electric element now which works fine. Eventually, I'd like the boiler to be feeding the cylinder as well but for now I've just hooked the boiler up to the UFH.
What I was hoping to find out...
Hello All - I need some terms clarified please...
For my UFH, the flow refers to hot water going into the manifold and the return is cool water going back to the boiler.
What is true for "Boiler flow" and "boiler return"?
Is "Boiler flow" cold water going into the boiler? or hot water...
Unusual eh..? If I could do it with just the one valvenI would leap at the chance.. Any chance I could give you a bell to discuss? If you're in London I'd be happy to pay you a consultancy fee for a visit and some expert advice. I'm a complete novice installing this system..
Cheers,
Josh
Thanks for your reply. As for multiple valves - I've been told I need one on the flow to each manifold.. Not so...?
I've got UFH on three floors with a manifold on each floor and controller for each manifold..
Cheers,
Josh
Hello
I've bought some Salus 2 port motorised valves for an underfloor heating system - to be mounted before each manifold. Does anyone know whether these can be mounted vertically?
Thanks very much,
Josh
