I had a Salamander CT50 Pump fitted around 5 years ago to supply a Bath/Shower and an en-suite Shower. It worked fine for 3 years then it started making a racket (probably bearing failure) and I replaced it. The second one lasted just under a year, the third about 6 months and the fourth is now...
Hi Chaps
I removed a wooden Curtain rail that was embedded in plaster and some of the plaster came away. It's too small a job to get a plasterer i so I'm going to have a go at it. From experience, I need to add a scratch coat then a 2mm or so finishing coat (thistle?) but as you can see from...
Thanks Oldbuffer.
I mis-described it as a Electric Shower, point taken.
The new Shower is exactly the same as the previous shower so no problem there.
My question has been answers!
There is no water tank - the reason I ask about it being mains-fed is that I always understood that only the...
I am looking to replace a Power Shower at home. It's straight replacement with Power and cold water. The Power is a switch on the consumer unit.
My issue is that I can't find an isolator for the cold water feed. The pipe comes out through a tile. The house is new and there are no exposed pipes...
the hollow side goes into the Caliper, there is a threaded shaft with a ball on the end then rests inside the piston. when the shaft is rotated by the Caliper motor it moves in and out pushing the piston against the pads.
The hollow side is inside the caliper and was full of fluid when it was...
Thanks Harry, there are two of us doing it. The front Discs and Pads were simple but when doing the rears it turned into a bit of a challenge! Still, every problem is the opportunity to learn :)
Hi all
While changing brake pads on a Merc A180 I damaged the brake piston so I have one on order.
I know how it goes back on but should the rear/hollow of the replacement Piston be filled with fluid first or does the piston fill up when I unclamp the brake fluid pipe?
Where does the air in...
Wow - some comprehensive answers - great information. I agree that Ground Source Heat Pumps are possibly the future.
Thanks @flameport for the rather obvious :oops: calculation - and yes, it's quite an expensive conversion. I won't be making the change anytime soon.

Hi
Hyporthetical question: If I replaced my Gas CH Boiler with an Electric CH Boiler, how much would my Electric bill be?
How do I calculate, using my existing gas usage, how much the equivalent Electric usage would cost?
Any pointers would be great,
Kevin
