Anyone know what AEG combi cordless drills are like? compared with the usual crowd (Dewalt, Bosch, Makita)??

as mentioned in the original post - was recommended by salamander technical help to stop pump from continiously triggering

I tried that already. I'm going there tomorrow - I'm going to open all taps then turn off pump at isolation, whilst they're running. hopefully this will rid any air in the hot pipework. See if it still continues to lock.

I would approximate 3m

Size - not sure Correct inlet - yes (on the horizontal) cold feed - 22mm valve - fully open pump - positive

Hi I've found a real bugger of a job. I installed a new shower onto existing pipework from the old shower. The customer wanted a pump but didn't want me to redo all the pipework so that the shower had independent supplies so she decided on a Salamander RHP whole house pump. I installed...

Thanks for the reply, you mentioned "secondary stack" - there isn't any other stack on the house - not sure it that changes anything?

Hi I have a soil stack that doesn't have any Wcs teeing into it - looks like it is just venting the drains. The downstairs Wc goes straight under the floor and into the drain. Does anyone know if this stack can be teed into for an upstairs WC? Cheers, Graham

Hi I want to change the factory settings of a mixer valve but am confused as to how to do this. It doesn't have a manufacturers ID on it so I can't look up the spec. I've changed many before where I've altered the setting with a allen key etc. but this valve seems to work using a spring...

Hi My DVD / CDW combi drive is opening and closing on its own, pretty much continuously. I searched the net and it seemed that I either had a virus or a hardware problem. I ran Norton and for the first time it wouldn't complete the scan - I had an error message. I assumed this indicated a...

it stops when stopcock in kitchen is turned off. appears to be between there and bathroom / tanks etc. above ground.

Hi I've been at a job where the owner was complaining about noisy water pipes. On seeing an overflow overflowing, I checked the storage tanks and noticed that the F&E float valve needed changing - so I changed that. Anyway, everything works fine all over the house except that there is still...

You can use a 90 pan connector but you'll probably not be able to get the WC back against the wall. If you can access the 4" you may be able to move it nearer the wall

Always the cold apparently

No, there's no mixer on the bath or basin. One thing I didn't mention was that there are 2 tanks (this is a big house - actually there are 4 cwsc tanks but that's by the by). They have one tank that feeds the hot cylinder and the other feeds the cold distribution - the cold, however, has an...

Hi Just after some suggestions as to how to prevent a system airlocking again. They have an ensuite built a long way from the cold water storage - I'd say the distribution runs a good 20m in the loft space, horizontally (looks to be slightly falling) before dropping into the ensuite. They...

No, I looked in the manhole, the downstairs toilet which goes directly into the drain is further up

Hi all Anyone come across houses with 2nd 4" soil stack that isn't being tee'd into and is just venting the drain?? The main stack has 2 WCs tee'ing in and vented - further along is a 2nd stack with nothing teeing in - just venting to atmosphere. I want to tee in downstairs WC (currently a...

88% of statistics are made up :-)

Are you sure the kitchen has been sized correctly? seems overkill to have 3 rads so close to each other.
