    Droning noise when running hot water

    Thanks for the fast reply and diagnosis. I'll get onto it and replace the ball cock valve when I'm there next week (it's 100miles away). Is it safe to use for another week or so? Thanks

    Fully electric or electric/gas mix

    Can you not get a megaflow added to the boiler for hot water? We have one and it can handle like 4 or 5 baths being run at the same time https://www.hometree.co.uk/energy-advice/boilers/what-is-a-megaflo-unvented-boiler-system.html

    Floodlight and cctv pole

    Hi m8, I'd suggest you use 2 x shorter lengths attached by an external sleeve coupler. The sleeve coupler is hollow inside so the cables will pass thru. Alloy tube isn't commonly used in scaffolds as its low weight bearing. Galv steel is what's used, but its much heavier but not too heavy in...
