    Bathroom "Vanity Unit"

    Hi, The guy who told me I could not do it, said something about part P. But as I'm not planning to do this myself :shock: (I would toast myself several times over I'm sure) I was not too worried. I guess the electrician would say yes or no, However I DO want to know what they will do for me...

    Bathroom "Vanity Unit"

    Hi gents, I've just bought some of the oval pipe to put up the wall, can you tell me how to stick it? The local DIY shop didn't have anything with which to do this. I presume I can buy some clips or something. Thanks once more. Maria.

    HDRW, thank you, this clears things up. You would not belive some of the advice I have had with regard to this vanity unit (mostly from people I work with) you would imagine I bought a power station not a mirror with a shelf. :lol: As for the Spanish, thank you for the complement...

    :D Excellent stuff, thank you very much sir. Very much appreciated. Just the information I've been looking for. Am I correct assuming a FCU means a fused connection unit? My tiler is going to love me for this one :lol: If you would be so kind as to answer one other question, it would be...

    Sorry, ban all sheds, I must be missing this British humour once again :oops: 1) Yes it has an integral switch. See comment 3 2) It almost sits flush against the wall, it is recessed by 18mm into the unit so you can hang it. So yes it would allow for a "flush mount flex outlet" (I'm...

    ban-all-sheds, while your comments make sense, mpaj1 was at least kind enough to answer my question. He tried to cover all possabilites. Do you not think some more.....constructive comments from yourself would help possibly? :) You have nothing to say about the matter? How should the...

    Wow, one reply, but what a reply ;-) Thank you very much. That is very much appreciated. This gives me plenty of things to go at, when I'm getting the electrician in. It's nice to know a little bit of the "spin" they will try and give me. Thanks once again, Regards Maria.

    Much appreciated Kevplumb, I had a quick look last night, but too tired :( I will have a proper look today. I've a big problem though, the supplier of my radiator (a local shop) emailed me to say that my model is no longer available. I chose another, but now they are asking me about a "summer...

    Hi Gents, more great answers and more confusion for me. :oops: I've never ever noticed the arrow on the pipe. Not even when I took the photo, must like many of the boys on this forum be going blind for one reason or another. :twisted: So just so I am sure, either pipe on...

    Hi Kevplumb, thanks for the information, I'm really quite enjoying all this. it's very interesting to know how my new house works and why it's so noisy :D As promised one of the many ugly, ugly valves I have..... My thanks once again, you are a star. Regards...

    I know what you mean, a really revolting black pipe that was in the centre. I think I'm confused now, perhaps I did'nt explain well. The radiator is already off and the system ready to drained. I asked the plumber to connect a new radiator at the ends of the (without this valve). I presume that...

    Hi Kevplumb, Thanks for that, mine don't have any arrows they are smooth chrome plated and have no markings at all, also the wheelhead, as you call it, is missing just a metal knob remains. Plus the return part has just a scew. I'll drop a photo at some point, really ugly...

    Is that good? Another question Slug type person :D How do I tell on this twin entry connector thingie which pipe feeds the water and which does not. My plumber mumbled something about this and I'm curious. Also does it matter? Regards Maria.

    :lol: Apologies accepted, if you can keep your thinking head away from your PC that would be useful :P Don't worry. I'm not this prudish :wink: Still it was a terrible joke, but as it was surrounded by useful information,so....I'll let you off :) I'm off to tie up my ballcock :twisted:
