Sorry, I don't have a clue. I'm trying to find the paperwork for them.

And back to the original post?............ I'm still nowhere nearer to solving the problem. (n):mrgreen:

Any chance you can tell me "the issue"? ......pretty please!

Thanks for all your replies (including the funny ones! ) Sorry, I should have said it was installed some months ago and the heating was actually being used at the time. I've been doing it bit by bit during weekends. I don't want to start installing the oak floor if I have to get the ply up to...

Hi all, Firstly, forgive me for being a muppet if you're a gas fitter but I'm a chippy that doesn't have a great deal of knowledge about pipe work for rads! I have just built a 6m X 6m extension on the back of my house with a vaulted ceiling and having used an online calculator it seems that...

Hi, I know it's a bit old but I was led here by a google search. I'm looking to do the same thing but the elbow is behind aqua board in a stud wall. I was looking to do the same thing re the extension but correct me if I'm wrong, you say to screw the 2nd item into the first. Isn't the male part...

Yes. The salamander instructions say that the best place for it is at the base of the cylinder and as near as possible. If this is not possible (it isn't) ensure there is at least 600mm head between the base of the water tank and the top of the pump (which there is). I've also realised today...

I've realised there is room for the pump on the shelf above the cylinder. Have fed the CWS down to just above the cylinder (low enough to fit the pump when it arrives) and will fit the surrey flange and use the side outlet of the flange and go up about a foot to connect to the pump also...

I've done particularly well considering this got posted in the "electrics" section! :lol:

As I said, I'm not a plumber. Thats why I was asking advice. :) I have now realised the use and importance of the surrey flange as seen on this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nflnMFlBZB4) I shall do as the video says and connect the hot water via the side outlet. Cheers all!

Yes you may be right. I'm fitting a surrey flange and having just watched a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nflnMFlBZB4) on how they work, it seems I might get a lot of air in the water if I use the expansion pipe. The whole idea of a surrey flange is to feed the pump with non aerated...

Hi all, I'm a carpenter and have just completed my loft conversion. I have some plumbing skills but I've never fitted a negative head shower pump before. My cylinder is on the first floor and the CWS is in the loft. I have a negative head twin salamander pump and a surrey flange as suggested...

sorry, just seen this is in the wrong section. Not quite sure how I got here as I was in plumbing!!! :)

Thanks for such a quick reply. I phoned Enfield Building Control and they have said they do exist but they are a new size and are probably hard to get hold of. They also said he was going overboard with the size as a 37kg would be fine. Its only spanning 5m. Lets face it, its a ridge beam...
