I'll try that. Thanks

I have tried just pulling the handle off. Will give it a squirt of WD40 and try again. Not tried turning the plate. Not sure it will turn as the four corners look as if they are turned downwards. Will give that a go though too. Thanks

Does anybody know how to get the handle off this tap to get at the valve? It's dripping and needs rewashering etc inside. There's no screw under the plastic plug as you might expect to see. All there is is what looks like a flat squarish metal plate. Have tried prising that up with a...

Careful Seco :lol: I've seen crimping mentioned elsewhere on here Londonboy. Wondered whether that might be a solution. I think you're right though; I don't think it would be considered like for like.

Thanks boilerman, yes I thought it was likely to be notifiable. Could you tell me what the solution would be to extending the flex. Since I can't do it myself I would at least like to to be able to advise my customer.

Thanks Whitespirit. However I think your confusing this unit with an 'electric shower' rated in the kilowatts (8, 9 ,10 kW etc) for the heating element. This topic is about an electric POWER shower (150 Watts to run the pump motor). Matt

A bit of electrical advice please... Just in the process of replacing an old Watermill electric power shower with a Mira Vigour. Unfortunately, the cable (flex in fact) doesn't reach the terminals of the new shower. Some details about the set-up... - the supply is via twin and earth flex...

Hi there. I was looking at this machine for a friend because there were a couple of inches of dirty water left in the bottom at the end of the wash. Took out the filters and cleaned - not too bad - and then removed the L-shaped piece that's held in with a Torx screw to have a look at the small...

Gone to several, gasman (see above). No luck though. Frustrating because I know I recognize it! Just can't put my finger on it.

Thanks for the suggestion Mozza. I'll chase that lead tomorrow!

It's a few weeks on, and I'm still having trouble identifying this maker's mark. Bringing it to the top again to see if anyone recognizes it. Any suggestions?

Yes, I'm sure I've seen it on taps. Just can't place it. Will have to go down to the merchants tomorrow, see if anyone there recognises it.
