What about 90 degree compression swivels on the ends, then the swivel connected to the manifold?

Some is better than none I suppose. Even if it were to stay under 1k that would satisfy me enough (only just though)..

May be a washer on one of the relief valves, but only a plumber with a G3 certificate are allowed to work on these cylinders.

Ha so they did, I will give Gladiator a ring tomorrow and double check, they were actually coming out the cheapest amongst the quotes I've been getting so hope all pans out well. It's a difference between £700 odd to £1400 wether they take it into account or not! Squeaky bum time!

Do you remeber who insured you Whitespirit? I will add it to my list for tomorrow, going to ring them all and see if they do and will give a quote. On Gladiator it asks for NCB and asks what vehicle that was earnt on, and just says "Previous Vehicle", doesnt say anything about a car...

I am in the process of changing the car for a van. I have built up 5 years NCB on the car, but insurers are saying they can't or won't take the car NCB into account when quoting for the van. If I am doing an online van quote and in the box that asks for the NCB doesn't state it has to be...

I did speak to a spark in work as my first question was can I put a plug on a shower and power it that way and he said no it has to be 10mm. So I agreed to run the 10mm from the fuseboard to the shed and he connect it up both ends, but now a light and sockets have come into the equation seems...

I am wanting to run a cable to a shed in the garden which sits about 1m away from the side of the house. I want to run the cable externally preferably clipped into a mortar line about 8-10foot high. If I were to buy 10mm SWA cable, how good is it at bending 90degrees around corners? I...

The thermocouple, which forms part of the Oxygen Depletion Sensor, had formed a bit of crud on it, which was causing insulation and was taking it a few attempts to light it. As the pilot light only stays on for a few seconds, it took a few goes to heat up the thermocouple due to the crud...

Thanks I will try the brush method I thought they would be stained for good :( Fire seems ok only problem is the thermocouple needs changing. I temporarily wire wooled it until I have time to get a new ODS. (I am gas qualified) :)

Do you have any ventilation in the bathroom?

Just moved, coals weren't positioned right and have soot marks in parts which doesn't look very good. Anyone know any nifty tricks to clean them? They are coloured coals, grey and beige. Cheers!

Can you build a shed under a car port? It won't be a regular pop up shed, it will be properly studded out so it can be insulated and tiled inside. The shed will have a purpose for grooming animals. Plans are for water feeds, electricity to be hooked up to it, and waste water to exit the...

Going to paint the skirts and doors with Vinyl Soft Sheen white, do I need undercoat or just key the original gloss? Thanks.

Originally planning to gloss the skirting boards brilliant white, I don't want them yellow after a few months, so just wondering on some other good colour choices? Carpet is a cream colour also, was thinking maybe a light grey or something? Anyone done some "wacky" colours lately that...

Have you checked the pressure in you expansion vessel? You can use one of those £5 argos tyre pressure readers that connects to the schrader valve, might be worth pressing it with your finger first, if water comes out, the diaphragm inside has gone. Should say in the MIs what the pressure...

The heat exchanger was replaced 18 years ago? How old is the boiler? :shock:

No problemo, happy to help :)

The idea is to just put it on the pipe, that way when you insert the pipe into the fitting, any excess glue will splurge out of the joint. If you put it inside the fitting and push the pipe in, the excess will splurge inside the pipework, which could create something for hairs and bits to...

I would personally use Isolator -> check valve -> flexi If you use a flexi with a built in isolator, it will be harder to isolate if you need to replace or maintain the check valve. You can have as many compression nuts as you need or want, as long as none of them leak
