I have a Conceala 2 cistern I want to install behind a stud wall. I have previously done the same but with the ProSys 120 cistern. From my understanding the prosys is designed so all the cistern components can be replaced though the flush plate hole. The conceala 2 came with a small push button...

On second thoughts, putting the WC on its own connection to the stack, capping the original pan connector, but keeping the horizontal would require the least work.

If I keep the WC on the current horizontal section, there won't be anywhere for the waste shower to connect (other than to the same horizontal 110mm). That's why I thought to create another tee Also hindered by two rad pipes crossing over the horizontal.

Thanks for the replies. It's been in 20+ years and hasn't caused a problem (yet). But will definitely change it if more knowledgeable people than me think its a bad setup. Just to make sure I understand. Rotate the pan connector 90 degrees so it will tee into the stack slightly higher...

The toilet is just tee'd off the horizontal. There is another tee on the left, with a Durgo about 5ft high,

I'm converting an en-suite to a wetroom with a preformed tileable tray. Behind the stud there is already a 110mm waste used by the sink and toilet, it is capped on the right and exits on the left. The shower waste is 40mm, but as its below the floor I will need to join the 110mm in the side. I...

thanks. Yes I should be able to. There is a 110mm waste that runs across the back of the room below the toilet and existing shower. I will have to notch the joist to get the shower waste though. there will only be about 200mm of pipe between the shower drain and the 110mm.

I'm renovating my en-suite and have pretty much settled on this design. It will be a wetroom tiled floor with a flush shower form. I'm Bringing the back wall in 200mm so there can be a concealed cistern and a concealed shower valve. Do the dimensions look OK for general day to day...

the reason I ask is I found this online; https://www.uheat.co.uk/can-i-connect-the-ufh-to-my-radiator-circuit/

yes

I'm renovating our ensuite and would like to install wet underfloor heating. The room is 2m x 2m. There is a small conventional rad in there at the moment. I was thinking of swapping it with a low btu towel rad and running wet underfloor heating. As its such a small toom, can I run this...

Thanks for all the replies. I've done some additional poking and prodding. The ceiling in the garage appears to have quite thick plywood backing above the plasterboard, there is rockwool type insulation above that. something like this; The below images are where the airbricks have been...

I have a roughly 20 y/o house with an internal garage. The garage door is single skin metal, and doesn't seal around the edges or bottom very well. Inside the garage the walls are airbrick, and ceiling is plastered. But there are cracks where the plaster meets the airbricks. I feel like we're...

I want to tidy up and replace the gravel on our side with something that won't constantly spill down. This image gives a better idea

My neighbour recently had some work done on the path down the side of their house, and drive. In the picture below, you can see a new block paved boundry line has been installed, and they have had grey/white gravel put down. Previously there was no visible boundry and the gravel spanned...
