    Could this be the supply pipe to my old shower?

    I'm trying to find the supply to my old shower. I've got the boot where it comes out of the wall, but am struggling to find the source. I think I may have it, but I'm not sure! This is where it comes out. I'm sure the chasing to the ceiling is electrical. I'm assuming there may have been a...

    Fibre plus jointing compound ?????

    I reading the installation instructions for the Trevi Boost. I'm a bit confused by them. Does this mean Fibre washers and a compound such as plumbers mait or BOS white. Or does it mean to use hemp? Would the jointing compound be the same as mentioned above? I'm a bit surprised that they...

    narrow 22mm chrome pipe collars or alternative.

    Nope. Open vented. Don't want to run new pipes for a mixer plus wire in a pump. Had electric shower before but can't afford to upgrade the 6mm cable and other electrical work that needs doing to comply. So going venturi - just need to run pipes from the bath supplies. 22mm hot and 15mm cold...

    Installing a bath - securing the rear feet - how?

    But the floor boards already run across the joists. Joists run |||||| Floorboards run ==== ==== The bath well run the same direction as the floorboards. So do the "bearers" run parallel to the floorboards and perpendicular to the joists? Or perpendicular to the floorboards and parallel to...

    The floor boards run the length of the bath. Should I run the battens lengthwise or widthwise?

    Adding additional bath feet?

    As far as I can tell no posts have been deleted. I had a damaged item, I got a replacement and have ended up with two sets of feet fittings. Whilst not a requirement, I was wondering if I could fit both sets of feet to the same bath. The base board of the bath is built in to the bath under...

    Adding additional bath feet?

    The base board is built into the bath, under the GRP. Each bath kit has 2 rails with 2 feet each, and 1 separate foot. So in total I have 4 rails and 10 feet.

    Installing a bath - securing the rear feet - how?

    I know about the silicone bit. Would I be better off using sheet material?

    narrow 22mm chrome pipe collars or alternative.

    I am looking to install a Trevi Boost shower. I am going for the exposed one at the moment as I need to get the bath in ASAP, but the shower can wait. I don't really want to chase the wall, even though it would be neater, due to having to do that while the bath is out. So I was looking at the...

    Installing a bath - securing the rear feet - how?

    not direct into the floorboards as the existing bath was?

    Installing a bath - securing the rear feet - how?

    When installing a new bath, how does one reach the rear feet to screw them to the floor boards? Or does one simply not bother, and just adjust them so they are supporting the bath, only securing those feet that can be reached?

    Adding additional bath feet?

    I bought an L-shaped bath that arrived damaged. It has since been replaced by the supplier. Well, I say replaced, they have sent a new bath but left us to dispose of the old one. That means I now have 2 fixing kits for it. The base board is enclosed in the GRP. Will it hurt to add the...

    Venturi shower plumbing query

    Having done much research, and soaking over in the electrics forum about the dodgy install of our current electric shower, I am opting to replace it with either a mixer (with or without pump) or a venturi. The venturi appeals to me the most as I have a limited time scale to get the bathroom...

    A shower dilemma...

    Actually - it just might - I have discovered Venturi Showers (Trevi Boost/Newstream Jetstream) ----- Can anyone answer these questions? ----- Thanks for the clarification - I was getting confused with what is regulated (practically everything) and what requires notification. -----...

    A shower dilemma...

    Capacity - unknown. The cylinder is about 4 foot tall, I think. I shower, the wife doesn't. It's only us. I take my time.

    A shower dilemma...

    Not an option. Currently I have a deluge head with separate smaller spray. The current control unit is right where I need to put the shower head attachment. I could leave it where it was, but it will be a good 4 inches off centre of the new shower area, defeating the object of a wider shower...
