    Condensation within the shaft of tap or a leak?

    Hi, thanks, yes, realised the high pressure idea was probably a red herring. I did shine a torch up there earlier today and couldn't see where the water was coming from, only that it was ending up with a drip on the inside of the threaded shaft of the tap, or down the cold flexi. This tap is...

    Condensation within the shaft of tap or a leak?

    I've just thought of something. The tap is listed as needing 'high pressure'. I don't know what my mains water pressure is (always thought it was fairly high) but I could turn it up higher.

The flexi pipes dangling from the bottom of the unit and dissapearing high up inside it appeared to be ready attached. Instructions were poor and didn't state this, but I felt it to be the case as there...

    Space around a fridge freezer

    I recently bought a new free standing fridge freezer (LEC TS50152W). I bought this particular model as we have a very small kitchen and it's about the narrowest I could find. The manufacturers recommendation for ventilation space around the appliance is 25mm each side and 100mm at the back and...
