Hi, yep there's an old boiler (Ideal Mexico - circa 1975).
The issue is that the flow is low from hot and very high from cold. So what happens is that the water goes very hot to very cold.
Having electric would better regulate this variance.
Thanks
Hi Taylor.
Correct, we're rural and have overhead supply.
RCD picture attached.
Our reasoning for an electric is that we have a poor boiler and so sometimes don't have hot water and as we have 2 young kids its simply not an option. Having an electric means hot water on demand.
Thanks again,
Jon
Good morning all.
Having updated our bathroom we'd like build in a shower.
Before we commit on how (plumbed vs electrical) I wanted to see if our CU would be up to the job (with the inclusion of an 40a MCB where the space is) of an 8.5/9.5Kw electric shower or if it would be more extensive...
Hi.
Ah yes, they could be flow regulators. Does the kit in the link need / include these.
Will get some 'Y' filters and thanks for tip on joints!
Thanks.
Hi Richrdthe3rd.
Thanks for the reply, I'll take a look.
Inside the dogleg is a small, what looks to be reducer (6mm or so).
What is this for? Will this need to be replicated?
Will I need a ISO valve and 'Y' strainer on H & C? Also out of interest, why are these needed?
Cheers.
Morning all,
Has anyone any experience of fitting one of these: http://www.screwfix.com/p/triton-tesla-thermostatic-mixer-shower-flexible-exposed-chrome/36111
The fitting provided are a dogleg valve and I'm not 100% sure it's what I need, I know Triton sell fitting kits however.
It's...
Morning all.
Having had a door removed I'm now left with a load of old caulk attached to brick.
I've got the thick of it off but there's loads left.
Does anyone have any tips on how I can get this off?
Cheers.
