Morning! I've just pulled out a window with the view to brick it up. I've got a couple of questions, I hope somebody can help me with. Do I need wall ties between the two leaves? The window is 1m sq, so not very big Secondly, I've discovered there's no insulation in the cavity. It's only a...

Thanks, that seemed like the best option to me as well

Yes it's a side view of the pipework

Hey guys...I've run into a problem with regards to moving my toilet in a downstairs bathroom. I was going to dig out the existing soil pipe, cut back and couple a straight piece on to the existing in order to move the loo. Unfortunately the pipe is too close to the wall and I can't cut it back...

Morning guys I'm just pulling out our old downstairs bathroom and digging out a channel to extend the soil pipe so we can relocate the toilet. Seems like a straightforward job... however, I didn't realise that the soil pipe enters the building under the dpm. My plan was to dig down to the...

Thanks Dan

Here's a (very) rough drawing of the setup...hope this helps!

Well, I hope you had a good night :) Yes, they are all independent. I'll draw up a schematic later and post it up

The wiring centres can switch with 240volt or 0volt, depending on the application. Each room has got its own thermostat. When the stat calls for heat, the wiring centre will activate the appropriate actuator and call for heat from the boiler at the same time. So in effect each room is its own...

Yep, there's a wiring centre for each manifold. Each one can call to heat from the combi individually They've provided standard wiring/plumbing schematics, but not any that fit the dual manifold system I've got I asked for some earlier this morning, but aside from being told that each...

They are the same as these https://www.elementshop.co.uk/2-wire-thermal-actuator They're normally closed

They're Heatmax ones, but think that these are rebranded from something else...will have a look at them when I get home

Thanks, that's exactly what I thought, but wasn't sure if there was something I hadn't thought of!

I'm in the middle of installing a new heating system in our house. The setup is 4 port manifold upstairs feeding the 4 upstairs rads, all controlled with heatmiser neostats. Downstairs is another 4 port mixer manifold feeding 4 UFH zones, again controlled with heatmiser neostats. The...

Oh, sorry it's not this section that he said couldn't be done in copper. It was another section that was all done in plastic due to space restrictions. The boss has been in himself and resolved the 15mm pipe issue, and added a couple of drains that were missing also. Still waiting for the bill...
