Any recomendations for a single impeller shower pump (hot water) and what size it should be for running one shower? I currently have a stuart turner 1.2 bar pump, which is very noisy and has been from new.

Ok, thanks.

I've had to use a piece of plastic channel for the vent on my tumble dryer, and connectors at eithe end to fit back on to the 4 inch hosecoming out the back of the Tdryer. Do you use solvent cement to stick the channel to the connectors? The type of connectors Im talking about...

How to finish a thread, use long words no-one understands and don't dare challenge!

Hi, Iv got a toil radiator to plug into an existing socket in the wall. Only thing is Im not sure how ot wire it in. When I pulled the cover off the socket in the wall it isn't clear where to put my three wires coming fomr the towel rad. Looks like theres three connections with two wires...

Yes there is a small header tank and the system is definetly indirect. I've heard about putting a hose on the expansion pipe for the CH header tank and kind of back filling the tank, and pushing air, debris out this way. Is this an option? cheers

Hi, I'v got air in the hot water loop that goes into the hot water cylinder. Its part of a coal fired back boiler. The pump is only on the ch loop, so does this loop normally just work by gravity? any ideas how to get it working after having drained it down fully? thanks

Hi, I've a Vokera Maxim 28e combi boiler and keep on having trouble with the mixer shower fluctuating in temperature. It doesn't happen with any of the other taps in the house, just the shower- when no other aplliances are running. Also the radiators sometimes go hot and cold sporadically...

Hi, am I okay teeing into the vertical pipes that go into the rad in the kitchen and routing them through the wall into the rad 2 metres away in the conservatory? cheers

Ahhh, didn't think it wud work without guide, Was assured by people behind counter tho :roll:

What do you use for drilling an outside wall for the kitchen waste pipe? I bought a 46mm drill, would my drill that plugs into the mains do or would I need a bigger two handed type one. Also it does not have a guide drill (Small drill in centre) to get it started. Anyone have any...

The inevitable- Im working on the same boiler, where is the overheat cutoff switch on this boiler?

Hi, after I drained my heating system I filled it back up and can't get my Halstead Quintre(?) Gold combi boiler going again. The lights do not come on at all but the pump runs when the heating is on and when the hot water is running, I've tried bleeding the pump while tap is running and have...

Hi, Ive searched this topic but no other problem was identical. Water gets very hot in our CH header tank and every so often overflows out of it. When this happened in the past we turned the pump down and this solved it for several months. Though it has now returned and the pump is on the...

No, didn't touch zone valves. should I have? will check header tank cheers

I partially drained down the indirect central heating and have tried filling it back up. while trying to get the air out I noticed there was no water coming out of the pump when I took the bleed screw out, though it was spinning. Whats the best thing to do? leave everything running til it...

Yeh, go for it- I did a 4 week course and then went on my own (through not being able to get on with another plumber) my diy skills were non existent really because id never really done any. It can be hard work at the beginning but theres always an answer and after a few months figuring things...

is kevplumbs first reply always sarcastic?? :lol:

yes, id say so- all rads were heating up.

Yes, must be pump then because I've had front off and it definetly isn't spinning- do they have a fuse in them?
