Hi 1. I painted window sills last summer, used leyland arcylic primer undercoat and dulux satinwood paint. Line cracks appeared few months later. I sanded the sills today, photo attached. They are line cracks, will be hard to fill but will try and prime and paint again. Should I do anything...

Yes agree just seen that, brick is about 100mm, to chisel 70mm or so is difficult and not much of the brick is left to fix the valves which are quite bulky and weigh around 3kg.

Cutting or modifying the pipes would be a messy job, won't go there. What is the diameter of these chorme pipes? What space between ceiling and horizontal pipe of the deluge is aesthetically acceptable?

The pump was set at speed II, noticed the operation is like on the motorway speeding at 100mph, ie: hectic lots happening in the airing cupboard. l lowered to Speed I and now it's like cruising at 70mph and now the airing cupboard is calm. Is there disadvantages at the lowest speed? Any thing...

I don't have Magnaclean but planning to fit one one soon. I do regular flushes every year but magnaclean will defo improve system.

I was not trying to repair the pump, I was asked to dismantle and see what's wrong. Again in pls read previous post #62 above. So I obliged for all to benefit and experience.

I dug further, removed the fan and got the bottom of the issue, broken plastic bits from fan which cause the grinding noises on its last day of operation, assume wear and tear of the material after 23 years plus. The whole impeller is free of sludge or curd which is good news. On the plate there...
