Thanks for replies - its probably only about 3M - so half of that in 22 and the other half in 15.

Hi Looks like our bathroom fitters have already connected the new shower mixer with 15mm pipe. Basically, there is (from me reading these forums and my insistence) 22mm dedicated feed from cw and hw tanks to the shower pump and then 22mm into the bathroom. But the last 1.5 metres or so is...

Hi After reading too much about fans, I've come to the conclusion that ideally, I would want an inline fan in the ceiling that comes on when someone walks in a certain part of the room (enters the shower cubicle). Is such a thing possible? Maybe I'd just need to tape up part of the PIR sensor...

Many thanks for the replies and I hope I wasn't being too alarmist. In case others stumble upon this thread, I plan to update it when I know more.

HI Has anyone ever had any experience of buying from this site? I made a big-ish purchase recently and haven't heard from them. Admitedly haven't called them up yet which I'm planning to do tomorrow but just thought in the meantime if someone else has experience of them it would either put...

Thanks for that. I'll give it a go........

Hi I wonder if someone can help? I'm planning to remove my canopy garage door (the kind with a long spring at the top of the door). Could I just open the door fully (thereby releasing some tension in the spring) and then cut the cables either side to detach the spring from the rest of the...

Many thanks for that and yes it does trigger the boiler too. It is quite a powerful boiler though. British Gas RD1 3100

Hi Our flow and return from to/from the boiler in the garage to the airing cupboard where the pump is, is 28mm pipework. I want to fit a bypass valve so that in winter, when the frost stat in the garage triggers the pump, the water can still circulate even if CH and HW are not calling. The...

I've got the same issue and whilst waiting for the new thermistor harness to arrive, I thought I'd have nothing to lose trying the above and was pretty shocked to see it seemed to work! No doubt this is a short term fix and I should replace with a new harness anyway? I've also no idea why this...

Thanks for replies. Boiler is an Ideal 3100. There is already a frost and pipe stat with the boiler in the garage. The MVs, pump and junction box are long way away in the airing cupboard. When I looked at the wiring today, it looks like there is only one cable leading from the boiler to the...

Hi When things go wrong with the central hearing, its always in the middle of winter and in this case the middle of the night! I got up to the sound of the pump making a massive racket. Its an S plan system and I noticed that both motorised valves (MVs) were shut but the pump was on. There is...

Yes, I think you could say that. I'm currently taking it up with my credit card provider to get a refund.

Thanks for the replies. I was assuming that the fact that I could hear the frost stat click for the first time meant that the pipe stat had been triggered but perhaps that is rubbish and in fact even though they are "wired in series" they both have power all the time and me be able to get it...

Hi We have an S plan system installed by BG some years ago. The boiler is in the garage and the pump and valves in the airing cupboard. The boiler is "protected" by a pipe stat and frost stat. Today I got a chance to test it. With the system was off at the programmer and stone cold, I went...

then got an email the next day saying the items had been made obsolete and would I like to either "choose alternative products from our website, or call us and a member of our sales team will be able to help you." It was then I realised there is no phone number on the site and the return...

Thanks for replies but I still don't understand why one copper pipe is twice the price of the other?
