John,
For a non-plumber you certainly know your onions! Thanks for your advice - I appreciate it.
Tryitand see - I have a plumber coming today so if he agrees that water is going back up the cold water pipe I will suggest this to him.
Many thanks to the people who have offered...
Chris,
Thank you.
The cold water power in our shower isn't the strongest - you're correct there. And getting the right hot/cold mix through our shower mixer taps is pretty difficult - we usually end up scalding ourselves.
Would you mind just explaining a little further how hot water...
Hi John,
Just keep in mind I don't know one end of a rising main from another...
By 'combi' I mean that the one boiler provides our central heating and hot water.
If pressure is measured in 'bar' then the boiler pressure seems to be 1 bar.
Could you help me locate the filing loop...
I'm a complete plumbing novice so please forgive me if I don't explain this quite correctly.
In my loft are two tanks. Going into the larger is a fairly thick pipe that rises above the tank and then enters the tank, from above, through a hole in the lid. I am guessing this was once connected...
