While setting up temporary water tanks the plumber connected the central heating expansion pipe to the hot water expansion tank giving me truely centrally heated water!
Is there anything I can add to the cold water tank to remove the smell & taste of rusty water?
He said it had never been a problem before.
My anxiety began when he arrived & when he found that another plumber was doing the boiler/ supplies to the loft extension (the developer said to get a plumber for outside the loft) & said he did not want to do the job.
I expect the work to be done in 22 mm pipe (hot/ cold water; pumps in & out) dropping down to 15 mm pipe supply to the taps with an isolation valves before. Are these reasonable expectations? Are there any other wheezes I should be aware of? Is plastic the normal material for hot & cold pipe now? (I'm a copper & Yorkshire man)
The hot water tank will be a long way from the cold water tank. Can the expansion pipe go anywhere else?
