Just been to job. Pump fine. shower valve inlet very hot. Shower valve is a bristan prism surface mounted bar shower. Have changed temperature to maximum setting on spindle but still not very hot. Anyone had any experience with tthese valves?

Its a CT75

Salamander CT 50 or 75 twin. cant remember which off top of my head.

will find out when i go back to the house. Whats your thinking. If hot shower valve if not blockage?

Cheers will give it a go. I assume the fact that the pump is firing means that it will pump hot and cold evenly ( assuming no obstructions)

Have got a shower valve (thermostatic) that in running almost fully on cold. Pump APPEARS to be working fine & cylinder hot ( Bathroom taps coming out nice and hot). Can only think there maybe some obstruction from hot feed although water out of valve appears adequate, or valve knackered...

Just thought expansion pipe. is this right? Gonna have fun getting the inhibitor in there!

Cheers all makes sense now. How do i go about back filing. Seems likely i will have to do this!

Many thanks for everyones help. I wont have a chance to look at boilermate until i start job so have a couple of questions. F&E-Only had a brief glance at it but it looked like a sealed unit. Is it? If so how do i add inhibitor? Lookes like a common problem is cold fill gets blocked- the...

Agree wouldnt freeze.i would rather drain down than solder. Would also not have a problem with compression joint. Just check it properly before sealing hole.

thanks flameport for your help. As i am a plumber i think me and a saniflow can take care of that one. I thought i was asking about an extractor fan?

no good in the middle of the house. Tiled floors. Some solid floors as well

Yes will be about 7 meters. As stated previously not much condensation expected as only cloakroom. I think suggestion of powerful fan a good idea. Any makes recomended. Only want small fan to fit in 4" hole.

Thought of that. Previously stated that bathroom is directly above. Not exactlytrue. As an old house and stairs go 90 derees at top the only way to get the pipe up is by cutting a 4" hole throught to the kitchen then go through cupboard directly above in bathroom. wont be able to access external...

Hi I am thinking of making the space under the stairs into a cloakroom. Happy with all plumbing and stud wall issues but need advice on extractor fan. I want to put in an extractor, however as a terraced house there is no access to an outside wall. Only way is to go is straight up...

If you are changing over a bathroom light / electric shower (with correct cables already present) but not extending circuit on either for a customer (not in own house) does it fall under Part P?

Thanks all. Room is only 2mx2m (4 sq meters) as only a small conservatory. Was thinking 160 watt mat as laying under lino. Wattage is only about 3 amps so well under the 13 for the spur. My main problem which someone has already mentioned is that you shouldnt spur of a spur. Because i need...

Hi Just built a conservatory and thinking about installing electric underfloor heating. Also want to put a double socket in there. Can i spur of the existing ring main and run both from this spur? If so what is the best way of going about this, spur to double socket then fused spur to...

Cheers for the response much help. Only problem i think i need to get my head around is removing the facia and then getting it back so all looks ok after lead inserted.

Think i have got that but my problem is it is an edwardian conservatory so roof is pitched. My plastic facia is horizontal. How can i stop water going behind the upstand if it is not cut in to the facia somehow?
