Checked the filter.....clean....made no difference. As said in the first post........the flow of water does NOT change. My thoughts is that the heater can is faulty? Anyone had the problem with any other heater can? Or maybe the thermal cut out operating?

Many newer houses with ensuite bathrooms have two showers so no reason why not to?

No. I have another shower in the main bathroom and that is fine

I have a Trition Aquatronic 3 shower 9.5kW which has been installed for around 6 months. My problem is that after a period it goes cool for about 10 seconds and then returns to normal. The water flow rate remains the same so I'm sure its not caused by someone turning on a tap etc (or washer...

The 3rd 6mm is another shower at 7.5 kW in another bathroom Steve

How much dismantling will I have to do on the board to swap for a 40A mcb, please? Can it be done with the board in place?

Yes, but it was OK'd when we bought the house five years ago so it may be 'on the edge'. My original question though was .....it it easy to replace the 30A MCB with a 40A. It looks like you have to remove the bottom busbar but there don't appear to be any screw and it looks to be all in one...

The term 'plugging in' was a reference to installing a new mcb. As you see the mob is NOT a plug in type Steve

Hi. The MCB on my shower has started to trip. The shower has been installed for years with no problems. When I checked the MCB I noticed it was a 30A. The shower is 8.5kW the cable is 6mm. Now with further investigation I have discovered that the MCB is a type 2 (Wylex) so replacing with a...

Hi My Beko dishwasher has water in the bottom (about 50mm deep) every time it finishes a wash. The hoses are fitted correctly and the filters are all clean. Is there some sort of sensor in the dishwasher which should pump out this water, please. The wash cycle operates correctly on each wash...

Thanks for speedy reply. I have soldered fittings before but would need to get out the blowtorch (we have just moved so it could be anywhere!) I have looked for the same fitting but with compression at the 8mm end. I cant find anything of this type though. Any idea what the 15mm...

Hi I have removed my bathroom radiator and wish to fit a small towel radiator. I have purchased a 600mm width radiator and the existing pipes will match up perfectly as long as the fittings are the 'straight through' type. Howevert the system is fitted with microbore 8mm pipes. What is...

I am selling my property built 1960 and the buyer has had an electrical safety check. This has recommended two things: That the consumer unit is replaced. Currently this is the original 1960 unit BUT has had circuit breakers installed instaed of the old wire fuses. That there is more...

No the ceiling rose has a junction box from which two lights are connected and also to a further box on the ceiling from which the other lights are connected. Also I noticed that there is no earth connection fitted to the lighting circuit. House was built 1961 Steve

Hi I have had a request to have the electrics checked on my house prior to sale. There are a couple of concerns. There are two outside lights fitted (with PIR) and these are plugged into a garage socket (with a PIR). The wires are not in conduit. They were installed in 2000. The...

Thanks again for the swift responses. The garage is integral AND is around 20% protuding at the front. The felt used was guananteed for 10 years so if it leaks after 2015 then there is nothing even I could do if i were staying! I feel that since there is not much conveyancing going on at...
