Hi plumber90, Doing it all myself apart from the boiler flue install, gas and commission. I have a mate who is gas registered. Havnt really had chance to go through the design with him yet, just the boiler new location.

OP stated the T is off the hot tap to his dishwasher. Www.specsavers.co.uk. :)

Definitely get it checked by a gas dude but sounds like a loose joint on the pipe manifold where all the key pipes connect to or maybe even someone left the fill key in unlocked ? Dripping water isn't good, there is mains electric on the panel so personally I would get it checked ASAP and...

My gas guy is in his late 20s and knows his stuff, charges £50 to service a boiler or gas fire and about £30 an hour for everything else. He is a self employed sole trader. Came to my house recently to cap off my hob so I can remove it, was on site about an hour after we talked about boiler...

Plan for the loft conversion was to tap off the 22mm with 15 near to the boiler and go straight into the loft space feeding a rad for the master bedroom of no more than 1500w plus towel radiator in bathroom and possibly a small one for the landing area. It's not a big loft. In the hall and...

Hi Tony, thanks for the reply. Indeed it is, but it is a good boiler and it was in the bungalow when I bought it so would me crazy to get rid. There will be 3 extra rads plus a second shower upstairs when all the work is done so my assumption is the extra capacity will be of use as well...

Boiler is a rebadged Worcester, British Gas 532i so I'm not expecting difficulties in getting flue parts. As for boiler capacity, current bungalow minus what I will need for the loft conversion worked out at about 9Kw from memory but thanks for the info I will have a look.

Cheers Dan. You mean the one on the left just by the front door I take it ? Reading up on this, there seems to be a rule of thumb of 4 Kw or max 3 rads from a 15mm feed....

Hi everyone, Currently renovating a 2 bed bungalow (which has an unused loft conversion also work in progress). I need to move the existing boiler as part of the loft works (flu issues) and as the current pipework is ok but not as I would like it I want to make changes while I have the...

I use one of these with semicircular blades, absolutely fab and blades are quite cheap on certain auction sites. Been lifting loads of floorboards recently during rewiring and this cuts across the boards ontop of joists and down the tongues too...

Just done pretty much the same thing. My floor joists are sat on 3 courses of common brick and I wanted to have the floor even across the two rooms now as one room ...
