Hi,
I'm fitting a smart toilet and it comes with an angled ball valve with filter for regulating the water supply. The flexi goes on the outlet part fine but I'm a bit unsure of the inlet side. It has a ribbed thread and no nut. A standard compression nut and olive will fit onto it fine, but it...
Thanks for the replies all. Am erring away from storage combis now I know how they work.
Undecide on way forward as yet, but thought I'd do some pressure and flow tests to check if that's going to restrict my options:
Gauge on outside tap, static pressure 5.3 bar.
Kitchen tap full on 3.3 bar...
This isn't quite going as expected.
If this were an automotive forum and I asked how a diesel engine worked I've so far got:
"The pistons go up and down"
and

1) Given that the inner bore of the lead supply pipe is probably no bigger than the 15mm copper it's...
Hi. I'm refurbishing an Edwardian terrace and need a little advice from you lovely people on my plumbing scenario please. I have found some info by searching but not a definitive answer.
I have a kitchen (with combi boiler) and two bathrooms to plumb CW supplies from scratch. The bathrooms...
Thanks for the reply! Ok so i need to cut the pipe back close to the wall. That's a 120 degree bend i'll be cutting off then. If i put a multikwik connector in i'll need to fit a bend to get the pipe sticking out perpendicular to the wall again won't I? When you say wall do you mean the...
Hi,
Hoping someone can help with a multikwik question please.
I am replacing a toilet on a cast iron pipe 4" internal diameter.
I am replacing with a closed couple toilet and I also want to move it to the left (as viewed from above) by 75-100mm. The basic question is how far back...
