I hope you're not still servicing boilers after writing this :shock: "I allow about 75 minutes for servicing these and add £12 if it needs a new thermocouple. I only replace them if the output voltage is low." You need to go back on that course :roll:[/b]

Why is that then John ? It looks fine to me although it looks shallow and might need a spacer kit. Op...you won't need that flue for a balanced flue fire as it vents to an outside wall. Get someone in to take a look and advise you.

Cut the pipe then clean the inside with a shavehook or file,flux the inside then clamp or hammer it closed (flat) then solder across.It is not difficult but take it steady with the blowtorch.Or just buy a leadlock fitting to copper.

Made by Hepworth and sold by plumb centre. A sh+te boiler that was discontinued after a couple of years. Google hepworth provitherm as i think it's the same mi's. ps: I still have the photo of you dick :shock:

I am a time served plumber who spent a lot of that time fitting RWP on the largest housing estate in europe at the time.You do not glue RWP. You allow it to leak in case a downpipe gets blocked.You would not want the whole gutter system filling with water.

All pipe fittings should be push fit only and be allowed to overflow in case of blockage.You would not want the whole gutter system filling with water and overflowing.That's what i was taught in my apprenticeship in the 70's when i spent what seemed like forever fitting RWP on the largest...

I think all these so called RGI's should post up the earliest form of qualification they have and then we can sort the men from the boys :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Thompsons water seal is what you need.

I only know of sizes up to 28mm. Why don't you phone them ?

Don't know that one but i do remember British Gas used to stamp their copper tube in the late seventies early 80's which made it a little more difficult to sell by the bundle :wink:

Winding up CC's is fair game :wink: I remember your infamous days on Screwfix and i have seen the famous photo :oops: :oops: :oops:

Even more annoying was the Acorn push fit fittings that were thrust upon us from Uranus ? They did not fit any pipe.....LOL

20 x 20 will look like a large pallet dumped on the garden :cry: be creative and use shorter boards :D...

Blah,Blah,Blah :wink: Of course you did Dan :wink: :wink: Why don't you scan your qualifications so we can marvel at your experience :?: ps.......it's flow and return pipes :roll: :roll: exit is what you will see in cinemas while watching cowboy films :lol:

Hydrochloric acid will strip the chrome off of taps etc but is only 10% strength in brick cleaner and not strong enough. All good plumbers should know that different metals expand at different temperatures and a chrome tap thrown into a hot Rayburn,Aga or coal fire will come out minus the...

Dan is not very bright :!: All them years at university wasted. Plus a 5 year plumbing apprenticeship. Plus training to be a gas fitter Hang on a mo..........he's only 29 :shock: How do you know it all :wink: Google :?:

Experienced plumbers would clamp the pipe using a lead pipe clamp (whats that i hear Dan say) or lump hammer and then freeze it to do a proper job and not get wet.....simple eh Dan :?: Another 3 posts of twoddle from our inexperienced plumber :roll:
