no, the rads are fine but the hot water tank running from the rads isn't heating up.

I have recently added a new radiator to a hairdressers I do some work in. They use the combi boiler for hot water in the salon and a hot water tank running on zone valves from the central heating to heat a tank for the staff kitchen. My problem is since the new rad was added the tank wont heat...

The service valves need moving hence the need to turn everything off. Thanks

due you mean just turn the cold off? or will there be a tap to turn the hot off as well?

Hi guys Just a quick question, I am replacing a sink and taps tomorrow. They have a mega flow system what is the best way to turn off the hot water while I sort out the hot tap pipe? Thanks

I have recently fitted a crossfire shower valve (from the bathstore) The previous shower was fine but the bathroom needed updating. My question is the new shower has no real power. It is run of the hot tank and the cold tank in the loft. First question, what pressurises the hot water tank...

Bit of a long shot here but I have been asked to fit a the above valve (DE0004rc) is the part number. It doesn't come with any mounting plate or pipe fittings. It is sold through The Bath store but they say there isn't a fitting kit for it. I was just wondering if anyone had fitted one...

Yes that would work, but I was hoping to remove all the chipboard and replace with 22mm ply as the floor is going to be tiled.

I have a bathroom to refurbish and the chipboard floor isn't very good. I am going to replace it but as the house is quite new it looks like the stud walls were built on top of the flooring making it difficult to remove. What is the best way/tool to cut right to the edge of the boards? Many...

there is a gate valve on the pipe that comes out the top, would that be it?

I am replacing the bathroom sink and the hot and cold have no service valves fitted. Is the best way to turn of the hot turn of the cold and let the tank empty? Thanks

the waste goes over the joist at the mo as the old shower tray is about 100 deep. The replacement tray needs the waste to go into the floor void and going through the joist would give me a good angle of fall.

As post is this ok? It is a new joist in a new loft conversion. Also the shower waste has been vented, what is the purpose of this?

I have been asked a question by a friend that I cannot answer. They have renewed the tap in the kitchen and now when they turn the tap on the pipe bangs. Any ideas what it is and how to cure it? thanks

Thank you everyone for your comments. I have spoken to the customer and as he is also having the drive way reshaped and resurfaced so new drains down the right side of the house is the only option.
