havent been back to them as only discovered it today. thanks. I'll take a look

Thanks. I have some 50mm pipe but that is the outside dimension so didn't fit.

My new cistern outlet for the flush pipe measures 48 mm as far as I can measure (the diameter of the rubber cone washer) What pipe should I be getting to make a flush pipe to my WC (which seems to require 40mm)? The cistern, from Victoria Plum, didn't come with a flush pipe. I've tried...

they dont do a cabinet to fit the higher WC. It wont freeze where we live. If I can find a tube (I think it must be pneumatic) that is long enough then what hassles would you expect me to come up against? TIA

Bit of a DIY (ordering) balls-up: we bought a "comfort height" WC pan (ie one that's a little higher than the usual), to go with a cabinet for the concealed cistern, all from Victoria Plum. However, because of the height of the pan the inlet on the pan for the flush pipe is too high for the...

Thanks. This is Wales, so normal rules don't apply! Anyway, would 18 be ok if I nog every edge?

Refurb of bathroom. Tatty broken boards removed (all of them) Electric heating mat in self levelling, all under vinyl click together flooring, to go on top. What's the preferred filling between the joists and the SLC? I have 25mm ply arriving tomorrow but on reflection they will create too...

Thank you.

sorry yes that was confusing. What I meant was than further consideration string seems a rather outdated method in a modern bathroom

but not near the shower, surely, which is where most people would probably want it (including us! :))

I appreciate all the help so far. However we both dislike a bit of string dangling from the ceiling in a modern bathroom setting. Is there a modern equivalent that doesn't involve string?!

Would another (better?) Way to do it be to have a fan with a humidisat built into it, and have the green switched on all the time? That way as soon as someone stats a shower the fan will kick in and once the room is cleared enough it will just stop

Thanks guys. so the fact that the fan will run on for some time is down to the fact that it has an internal run-on time built in (I presume they can be adjusted?) I think I get it now. Thank you all for your help

I've never heard of a momentary/retractive switch - off to search for one....thanks so how would one be wired up to a fan, please?

SWMBO wants the shower room fan to come on by means of a pull switch, but to go off again after a set time (maybe 15 mins) if you forget to do it manually after showering. Then, the next person comes along and wishes to switch on the fan does so as normal (in other words the switch has reverted...

Cheaper than karndean, and easier to lay, but does it last in a bathroom? Also can heating mesh mats be used under it if I use SLC over play?

I can see no mention of a requirement in the installer's guide, but I'll get one fitted anyway when I can. Thanks

Thanks. Might the combi have one "internally" as it were....its a worcester bosch greenstar HE (an HE 30 if memory serves, though I'm not there right now)

lol I agree its a mess - not guilty. We have a towel radiator in the bathroom which has no TRV on it and is never closed off, so won't that do as a means of ensuring the system flows?

Thanks. This whole assembly is going. Might the rad have been fitted as a means of BEING the bypass valve? Or can I just remove it, connecting those spurs in some other way?
