    Sealed unit back to front - help!

    Yeah that's what I thought, I don't think they are coated so yeah I was confused why they would have a sticker on o_O it's good to know it's not a major issue though.

    Sealed unit back to front - help!

    Thanks, appreciate the feedback! It's more the noise issue so I'll look into the seal. It's weird, it's like the background drone is louder when I put my ear on the glass in the small window (the one I think could be reversed) than the larger one - it's the actual noise coming through the...

    Rippled bend in copper pipe

    Thanks guys, appreciate the quick feedback. It's basically a few light ripples, there is one which is slightly larger and I was just concerned it could wear inside or it may have 'fractured' and could develop a leak in the future, so this does put my mind at rest. Does this cheaper pipe...
