I have first fixed some radiator pipes in copper coming directly out of the wall. I then plan on elbowing up to the radiator with a chrome crimped street elbow. And putting chrome pipe cover over the copper pipe on show. This should be ok?

If swapping a radiator for the same side and isolating on the radiator valves and swapping the rad. Like for like. Do I need to add inhibitor?

Any ideas on what could be done here shower works but face plate broken. No markings on faceplate. Imagine being hard to get a new complete face plate for it.

Went to a job dripping tap. Needs a new cartridge. Is an expensive tap so can get the cartridge off the manufacturer. If order and arrives on time it will come 2 days before the customer goes away for 3 weeks. Would others tackle before they go or wait till return

Thanks it's this valve I think I have found the correct washer anyone swapped the washer on these flush valves. Is an ideal standard toilert so want to avoid stripping the cistern down.

It keeps running in to pan, water level below overflow

Do you change the flush valve washer in this instance, or unit?

Thanks it's this one actually, can't find any instructions online for it

That's it

Has anyone fit the concealed cistern vanity from B and Q. Customer has bought is flat pack to start with . I was looking at the instructions instead of the front panel sliding up to access the cistern or so you can fit toilet and test then slide the panel in from above. The panel is only...

Are the viva fill valves ok?

If it doesn't comply with wras and any UK electrical regs. I will advise against. I had my reservations about them

What size reservoir does the one you linked have? I imagine if it's a small reservoir the hot water could expand back in to the mains without the need of a vessel. But then have to considered if a single check valve is needed. Depends on how close the nearest cold water draw off (tap) is

Thanks. It's just then if the unit does comply with UK plumbing and electrical regs. Electricians would be wiring it up so they would take a dedicated supply from the main board.
