this is the post i feel gives us most info, well done

On the body of the TRV is there a double headed arrow ? if yes it's bi-directional, if not it should be fitted to the flow side of the Rad, you can tell which is the flow side by seeing which tail on the Rad gets hot first, if the rad (trv) makes a knocking sound and can change with trv...

Couldn't agree less with Tony, having no idea before viewing is better than guessing without any idea which is what he is doing, a pro would view and price without charge not P*@s in the wind and hope to hit the mark, viewing needed to ascertain, is furniture to be moved ?, what flooring is down...

for that kind of installation a site visit would be required to give any kind of install costs as there are so many variables

The fact you have 2 immersions and one is Eco7 it is a fair assumpsion that there is no boiler and it is a direct cylinder, the stat will cost around £5 and can be changed very easily, 2 wires, isolate electrics to Immersion first, remove cap ( 1 nut ) and undo wires, pull out stat push in new...

no not really, completely impractable i think, i'm afraid it will require regular cleaning, also i would say cleaning is no mean feet, each unit will require a Stat so some chasing in the walls will be needed and they need to be away from the heater so the heat from the heater doesn't rise...

If either valve isn't open then no water flow = no hot water can get to pipes or Rad, take off TRV head and see if the pin under it moves up and down, you may need someting hard to try it though like a flat piece of metal (knife)

I fitted them in an end terrace in Onslow gardens last year, South Kensington, we put 2 lengths in front of the huge patio doors to garden and 2 lengths on the other side of the room along the wall, as long as they are the correct way around this is ok, we did also fit a Rad in the room as...

still to high really, get down to around 1.2 when cold, valves are not that expensive to replace as long as they are easy for the plumber to get at, say 1 hours labour + valve so about £160 + VAT

must have been a near horizontal fall then

Always :)

Can you believe after having a pop at me for not calling her she hasn't even bothered to return my call, she even posted her number on her profile instead of mine, why do we bother.

there will be pressure in the rad even if the pipes are blocked, sounds like one or both valves have seized, you will get no heat in pipes to rad either as there is no flow

Medium to high flame as soon as you see a slight green in the flame (5-10 secs on 15mm pipe) touch on the solder until it whips around the pipe, practise makes perfect, leave a few seconds then wet rag to tidy up

have a look outside first, you may find a drain valve sticking out of the wall, if you're lucky

i have your number and i'll call you tomorrow, Saturday however will not be an option as my best friend is coming home from China for his wedding, by the way the reasonn i couldn't see your message to me with your number is you posted it on your profile not mine :-)
