Hello, I did some work to figure out why my cover was not allowing water to drain away yesterday. On lifting it up the rubber seal came away from the underside of the recessed tray. I tried to put it back in its grooves on the "seat" but it was too big. It is now obviously not making an...

And it stops the noises of the sewer travelling up me pipes! No smells with the plug off. Damn do i need to put it back in. Doh! :cry:

tanks are from your old system (not combi) They are not removed (normally) without extra cost. No you don't need them, and yes you can, if you can fit em through your hatch. Are you 13?

Thanks 4 replies. Thought as much. It wasn't that expensive, but any money wasted is apain, esp from the mrs. excellent quote pete; never assume anything eh!

Hi, Just bought a shower kit from hansgrohe. Its good, and the shower head is lovely, but I have made one error; The shower hose for some reason is 1.7M long. I need a hose of about 1.4-5M long. The hose is smooth so no convolutions (bad limescale problem, and those normal shower...

Yep, just reconnect up following the wiring diagram in the booklet closely. The panel is a pain to get off - I nearly broke mine. I have a 140 for sale as well - see you on Ebay!

Yeah it is sorry. The plug type object is part of the gulley. In summary; Washing mc has own pipe running into gulley Sink waste and condense waste (pipe flows into trap) flow into the gulley also on a seperate pipe. I have removed the plug in a hope that this will clear the smell...

Hi everyone, Investigated my drainage today. It seems my kitchen waste eg w/mc and sink go into what I believe is called a Gully trap?? I had a poke around in the gully to see if I could find the exit pipe. After a while I discovered a big black plastic blanking plug on the exit pipe...

Yep I was thinking the same thing. Thanks Adam_151

sure! The guy who installed the kitchen came back and had a look. Could see no problem with the wiring, but told my partner he had re earthed the socket. A few days after he had done this, I am still getting the electric sensation. Eg the switch is turned on, so the flat of your finger...

Holy cow, what a muppet. :shock: I have check the wiring (with the power off) visualy only. I have no testers. There must be some form of leakage somewhere as I don't get a belt, just the strong sensation and tingling. Is this modification, a new socket from a spur, notifiable then? I...

no test cert :oops:

It continues after the burner has gone out and the pump is circulating. i would say this is possibly the pump, or a blockage somewhere, but all rads heat up ok? What causes a rad to vibrate? The boiler makes a huge vibration on initial ignition for 5 secs, but I think this is a seperate...

Hi I have a vaillant eco tec pro which is about 2 years old now. There is quite a faint rumbling sound to be heard through the pipes. Also one of my rads upstairs is vibrating to the same frequency of the rumbling. (the rumbling is amplified in stud walls etc where pipe work runs) All...

he's gone! Any ideas - perhaps some corrosion due to the pee? It didn't happen for a month or so after the socket had dried out remember.
