    Installed new showerhead..Now dripping sound in wall

    Probably been leaking for a long time but now you have fitted a more restricted head when you turn it off it holds more water back hence the dripping, when it's dripping remove the head and I bet it will run a fair bit of water out of the hose.

    Has the Tower Two Port Valve been Redesigned?

    Rent a freeze master for a day freeze the flow to the heating and cylinder and shut the pump valves then change the valve no draining required, or bung the feed and expansion and airlock the system and change the valve.

    Chaffoteaux & Maury mx2 24
