its a combi boiler Condenser

yes i live in a hard water area, no i didnt insulate the pipes, but surely if they were not insulated before it shouldnt make a difference (orginal bathroom that is)

Hello, I recently converted a bedroom into an en suite, which was separated from my main bedroom by a stud wall. To get the water supply i teed off from the pipes that come up to the bath/shower and fed them under the stud wall. The hot water goes to a sink and a shower. Since i teed into my...

Hello, I have a new soil pipe coming through the wall at a right angle to the toilet i am fitting. My question is, what is the best option to connect the toilet to the soil pipe? a) use the right angle connectors, but are these only meant to be used when connected vertically not...

I was advised by a tiler 5.5mm ply would be fine, when i put it down i did not think it was good enough so i put more 5.5mm on top. Therefore the total is 11mm, or will it now be as good having 2 separate sheets of ply. I surpose I have to give it a go a grout it. :cry:

They are 5mm, I am starting to think i should have screwwd the plywood down in more places. i screwed it every 6 inches around the edge but only in the middle i places if i felt some bounce.

Thanks for your help, i found flexible grout but just not white, i will try other shops etc as i dont want to end up re grouting because it starts cracking. Thanks again

My dad's electric shower's low pressure line keeps coming on and the water does not get hot. However water pressure out of the taps etc is as normal. The shower started making a strange noise. I put this down to the shower been broken and needs renewing anyway. However the thing i was...

I am tiling my bathroom floor, i put 5.5mm plywood down but thought it was thick enough so put more 5.5mm plywood on top of the other plywood. Anyway i have since tiled my floor using flexable adhersive, however i cant find flexable white grout anywhere. Can i therefore use normal grout on the...

What is the best way to securing a shower mixer? The mixer unit has two dog leg screwed connections. I am fitting the shower to a false wall made up of 12mm plywood so can get behind the wall. I have run plastic pipe up the back of the false wall and secured the pipework with clips. However...

Sorry for asking a stupid question as the answer seems straight forward but just want some experienced advice. I am fitting a new shower, which has a mixer. The instructions say the hot water pipe attaches to the left side of the mixer (Hot water is normally on the left hand side) which is...

I am not sure how much thread is there, I will measure it and get back, it looks like a standard tray plug from what i have looked at on screwfix.

I am installing a new shower, however when i connect the P trap to the new shower waste plug the p trap can easily move about, this is because there is not enough thread on the bottom of the waste plug to fully tighten the P trap on the waste plug. The shower came with a flexy hose attachment...

Cheers Seco, i have got parts of the floor up so will see if i can get away without raising shower as it is actually a new installation (turning an old bedroom into an ensuite, i have planning permission etc) it is next door to the bathroom so can feed the supply pipes through no problem...

Yes that is right, just looked at the place I bought it from and it had a link to the manufactuer, both are based in Middlesbourgh. What would you recommend i do? Buy a new one (would rather not because of cost) raise the shower and put a trap in? or anything else? Thanks for the advise

You have got me worried now, it is a Duvalli LM11, the link is below http://www.lowcostbathrooms.com/showers-66/shower-enclosures-82/duvalli-shower-enclosures-228614337/duvalli-shower-enclosure-cubicle-294.htm Not sure it that is from Asia or not. Could I not raise the shower and put a...

The flexy hose is long enough to come out the side of the tray, i was going to cut a whole in the side of the tray and make the connection from there so there is only one joint under the shower tray and that is the joint connecting to the plug. Is that not a good idea? is the way forward to...

is that to use with the flexy pipe or instead of? What size are they? Do you have a link for them? Why are the flexible pipes bad? is it because of the smaller diameter so it takes longer to drain? i would rather not have to raise the shower but if you guys thing that is the way forward...

that would mean i would have to raise the shower cubicle, i was hoping to avoid that. Is it possible to connect that flexy to the waste pipework?

I measured it and it was about 30mm OD. picture attached, any suggestions? //www.diynot.com/network/daveturnbull/albums/
