I removed the white nylon piece off from inside the green adaptor, i.e. the return valve. That worked.

I was able to break that white nylon piece off from inside the green adaptor, the return valve, so I'll try that.

Even with the black washer away, the brass fitting isn't wide enough unfortunately. Store person told me this might work: https://www.screwfix.com/p/hozelock-12-5-15mm-single-end-female-hose-connector/60551

Thanks Wayners. I tried that, but the brass opening isn't quite wide enough. This is a screenshot from Youtube about the same washer connecting the clear plastic attachment to the hose. I dont' think it's a double end female connector shown there as I also tried one of those. What would that...

The wide end of the connector in the first photo attaches directly to a pressure washer. The water supply hose should attach to the narrow end and the direction of water flow is indicated by the red colour arrow. The wide end screws onto the pressure washer without issue, however I'm wondering...

Are there any Type-22 convection radiators on the market which are 1200mm in height and 800mm in length? Stelerad's 1200 mm high K2 rads max out at 700mm length. So, wondering if anyone else does these? Also, would anyone know of any Type-22 radiators on the market which are 1300mm, 1400mm or...

If applying a 3mm finish socket bead to a brick wall which has a hardwall finish, would the bead be adhered to the wall before or after the bonding coat? The bonding coat and finishing coat would be a standard plaster thickness and are not being applied unusually thickly. Thanks.

The spindles which remain in place and are each an equal distance apart. What I noticed is, the locations of the removed spindles are not done in this way; spaces vary. I would guess this was done as visual thing so it helped the visual distance between the spindles if a person is walking...

After removing the paint from an old staircase, I realised that every second spindle had at some time been removed. The spindles are a simple square in shape. If I wanted to place new additional spindles at the original missing locations, how would a person go about securing new spindles in...

The front two external corner vertical edges of a standard traditional chimney stack in a living room has been coated in mortar (sand/cement). If wanting to add an angle bead along the two vertical corners in conjunction with the bonding plaster and finishing plaster: would you: a) attach...

The attached photo shows a fireplace with hearth flags, brick slips on the three internal walls and a plaster finish on the front facing chimney wall. The plaster covers the front edges of the brick slips so the these edges are not left exposed. On a front facing chimney wall which already has...

I've seen socket beads attached around a socket on a plasterboard wall. The bead is stapled to the plasterboard. Are these socket beads also attached to brick/block walls? If so, I guess adhesive of some description is used to adhere to the wall.

Or would the output need to be bumped up if adjoining rooms had rads, but were not heated?

Would you think the rad below would suffice for a living space of (3.5 m x 2.93 m) x 2.6 m height. Has a standard chimney place in room. One double glazed window. North of England latitude. radiator: type 33 K3 (triple panel) size: length 1000 mm x 400 mm height output: 1971 Watts / 6720 BTU...
