Tips and tricks to hanging rads fast? Any suggestions would be greatfully appreciated

well if you say so Delta T back to the rounds it is. Who am i to disagree with a timed served plumbing and heating engineer. I suppose the 22k i get for walking round in the fresh air will have to do it is a hard life i lead no boss 6 weeks paid holiday, sick pay, pension etc etc but hey if...

im sorry i couldnt READ your last post as im a postman, Seriously though if you really think that noone other than a 16 year old school leaver apprentice can become a plumber then you really have no argument. that is the silliest comment i have ever read. Anyone can become a plumber and...

Thanks everyone for your input. Yes Delta T we are cowboys but i know what i am capable of doing and im not out doing any thing above that. So if it means doing a 10 year self employed apprentiship then so be it, this was only ever to top up my income. I'm really not bothered what you think...

Delta T you make me laugh because there are a handful of YOU on this forum with no respect for others. Why are you a plumber i ask? is it cos you have to or want to? I have done this course as i am a postman and after 9 years actually fancy a challenge in my life hence career change. Yes if...

i get the idea. Seco. Many thanks everyone for quick response i will just add on to what i have already then, but i thought just the basics for most everday tasks. Cheers

Hi all. Was hoping someone in the forum could write me a list of tools i would need to start of my plumbing tool collection. i have a few tool but used the colleges tools, so now im trying to build up my own tools. Many thanks Darren

I have a leaking drain cock. It is on the pipe which comes from the mains water pipe in the airing cupboard. one pipe goes off to the cold taps etc upstairs, the other pipe goes into the hot water cylinder. This is where it is leaking from on the pipe just outside the hot water tank...

im in launceston area but i spotted this on screwfix would this do the job. http://www.screwfix.com/prods/47140/Plumbing/Hot-Water-Cylinders/RM-Indirect-Copper-Cylinder-900-x-450mm i will check on grade but i think its grade 3.

cheers there are no radiators or central heating. the aga just supplies the hot water so i could isolate it i suppose then just check for a drain cock. any ideas roughly on prices for a standard 900x450 cylinder with an immersion heater. thanks

Hi everyone, was wondering if any one could point me in the direction of a link for replacing a hot water cylinder. If not my brother has an aga which supplies his hot water cylinder with hot water,his cylinder is laking at the moment and he wants to replace it like for like. The cylinder...

Hi all, My grandad rung me up saying that he has an internal overflow on his toilet but its not cutting out once the cistern is full. He says he has replaced the washer but it still continues to fill over. Could it be something else or has he not fixed the new washer back in properly...

Hi there all you builders. I want to build a partition wall with a single door in my bedroom to box in the built in wardrobe i have made. What type of wood is best used for this and the easiest way about going about it. I did want some sliding doors but on the sites you buy them from they...

cheers for the quick reply its more for an asthetic view than for heat as we are a brand new mid terrace house. The bathroom is never cold so would not be worried about heat loss. If it is attached to the dhw circuit is there a way to prove this. I do have a cylinder and if it is attached to the...
