Hi All, Have a two year old column radiator where the paint was bubbling up/rusting over the past year. After picking off the cracked paint I've found the leak on the bottom of the blank valve (where the PTFE tape is, i put that on so it looks **** haha). Usually i'd just replace the radiator...

any ideas guys?

Hi All, I have an issue with my Hotpoint LTF 11M132 that would be great to get some advice on. Dishwasher previous worked for 2 years trouble free prior to this. About 30 seconds after closing the door the washer beeps as per the video below. It intermittent beeps for 2 minutes as video below...

Ah! who knew :) it works! haha thanks for the help there, good to get an understanding of how this all works!!! Thanks very much!

Ok so i just tried and maybe im being stupid but when i push the tap tail adjuster in to the elbow is just falls/slides out as there is nothing holding it in, even when trying to use the 15mm compression nut and olive? I'm using a 15mm x 3/8 " bsp adaptor

Those elbows may not be the exact same apologies. Below is a picture of the setup, the 15mm tail is still connected and in background you see the smaller Grohe tail

Thanks for the reply there! I have the adapters as you posted in your first link however the old 15mm tails connected straight on to an Elbow as below https://www.screwfix.com/p/p801-05-elbow-15-x-15mm-2-pack/91568 So makes installing these a bit harder?

Hi All, Having a bit of a beginner issue with connecting a replacement bathroom tap up. Tap is as in link https://www.grohe.co.uk/en_gb/eurosmart-basin-mixer-1-2-s-size-33265002.html The previous tails had a 15mm connection as does the current pipework. How can i connect the smaller Grohe...

Hi there, Looking for a bit of info about how the Bosch Warranty works. I got a new Bosch Worcester boiler installed in October least year (7 year warranty) The plumber i bought the boiler from and got to install it has been saying he is too busy to do a boiler service since early October and...

Thanks very much all of you for the replies guys as i was totally lost! I purchased the Cup brackets before but they were 55mm wide rather than 50mm which i couldn't find but was told to use the clamp type brackets SFK mentioned. I'm going to have a look in B&Q to see if i can confirm the...

Hi all, I bought a designer/vertical radiator which came without brackets not realising how tricky it might be to get the correct brackets. Can anyone advise on which brackets are required for this radiator? Many thanks!

I was surprised that the cost was slightly higher for the Intergas. It was upgraded on the quote from a HRE 28/24 as i mentioned the Worcester quote was actually cheaper (both include Filter & Chemicals install) Both engineers seem to be great guys and really know their stuff. So no concerns...

Good point. There are 4 Intergas engineers in my city VS about 30 Worcester so you're right. Fro what i've read Intergas may be the better boiler technology wise but given its under warranty and i won't be in this house long enough to see the warranty out i think it'll be Worcester :)

Hi people, Looking for some help/opinions. I have two installers offering: 1) Worcester 28CDI boiler - 8yr warranty 2) Intergas Eco RF - 10 year warranty. Both are almost identical in price. I like the idea of Worcester support network but Intergas seems a good technology for a boiler. (Are...

Hi there, I've been quoted for a Worcester 28 CDI boiler installed for £1800 which I think is a good price? (straight swap) Originally the installer recommended the 30i but changed his mind. After looking at the specifications and outputs I've noticed that the 28 CDI has a lower output? Will...
