Yep that would do I'd be fixing to truss or rafter rather than tile lathes.

When I was involved with such things we just removed a few tiles at correct point fabricate a L shaped bracket that went under tiles. Securely screwed down bottom edge stuck up about 100mm . Tiles trimmed on underside so when replaced all laid flat. Often used the heavier multi holed galvanised...

We look after a number of oil combi's on borehole/private supply's. As above I would suspect plate to plate heat exchanger. All the one's we look after have now got water softeners on .

We prefer to fit the ideal vouge when going for pdhw We go for X plan using a normal open zone valve to shut heating flow when there is a dhw demand. With a correctly sized cylinder with high performance coil very quick dhw re heat is possible. When wired correctly with a o/s sensor the...

Ex Stanley agent here As above new sealing rope needed. Door off always replace all screws drill out tap out as needed. Clean up carefully with rotary wire brush . Rebuild.

It's whatever works for you! Not used ptfe for over 10 years would probably struggle to find any in van. Loctite 55 dont use anything else. We still do a certain amount of screwed steel gas you can't back ptfe lol.

Tectite classic just push collet back into fitting. Special tool required or you can get away with a bahco type adjustable spanner.

Welcome to our world! There must be some sort of gap behind sink for flexis from tap to pass through. There are long box spanner sets exactly for this job . As for nut size who knows if it's a m8 thread probably a 13mm spanner required. But I have 5 different double ended box spanners for...

If its newbuild that's aluminium tape behind pipes. It's so you can locate them! Plus pipes should be in a correct zone. Yes you ideally need to know make of tube to get correct inserts. If its newbuild site go see plumbers and hand over some cash lol With the red writing its probably polypipe...

As you have worked out original mains supply went to feed cistern (tank) and everything low pressure from there. Yes feed everything as you go through building. I'd be trying to get rid of much of old lead as possible. We use correctly sized lead - loc fittings much neater than a universal...

If you want to stay with same footprint and features that's as good as it gets. SMC were actually a pump manufacturer long gone .

Unless either the boiler or heating system has a auto air valve somewhere then when air is removed pressure will drop.

Gilson Lavis Just seen on Jools Holland's Facebook page that his long time drummer both with squeeze and the rhythm and blue orchestra has died. Seen him many times immaculate timing the driving force behind the band and never looked even vaguely warm!

Should have been sorted as soon as cracks appeared. Who supplied tray? If your installer didn't fix tray as per manufacturers instructions they really can't just deny responsibility.

We subcontracted to a specialist insurance contractor for over 10 years. I've seen just about ever conceivable of attempted repair on shower trays. The 'invisible ' repair people can make a good looking repair but I have seen cracks return. Have you contacted original installer? It obviously...

Truly dreadful things I've seen them last considerably less than 7 years. If body needs changing we rip them out and fit 2 zone valves.

Should have been a full room by room heat loss calculation done, only accurate way to size boiler. Also with a heat only boiler I'd use one that can do hot water priority . Boiler is sized to rad heat load only (no dhw allowance). Then when heating on boiler can run at lower temperature to keep...

Have you considered going the pressurised cylinder route (assuming decent cold mains pressure/flow) no pump or storage cistern required.

If you have removed old rad link valves with a bit of 15mm pipe turn valves on then turn on heating.

Not necessarily trv's have been bi directional for some time Only way to be certain which is flow is to turn heating on and see which one gets hot first. If your new rad is flow definitely marked it's important that's where flow goes in.
