Hello everyone, following on from my previous post, with the advise offered I was able to source and fit the correct pump. however, it seems that the pump is wired so that it is permanantly ON. is this normal ? I though the pumps were supposed to be wired to the boiler and only...

well the pump is under the 1st floor floorboards, it really will be a massive job to relocate it, it shouldve been installed on the wall and a little box made to cover it my only option really is to replace the pump and even if it only lasts 3-4 years, I will just keep replacing it...

hello, yes it seems it is installed the wrong way I will see if there is at least 75mm space between pump and floor boards, if so I will rotate it 90 degrees no wonder the thing failed, mind you it is at least 5 years old if i cant get it 90 degrees, would it be ok to leave it say...

Well THANK YOU VERY MUCH indeed , that is superb knowledge and information, well beyond anything I would know in this area..... a million thanks, now i can order the pump and get ready for the installation jobbie, hopefully i can just swap over the motor housing and leave the rest alone...

bump open it . u can legally buy bump keys of the net. some people think mentioning this means Ive created a 1000 new burglars overnight, the reality is; a) criminals are already clued up about all of this b) locksmiths like to rip people off in their hour of need ( not nice is...

what u want to do is; buy secondary glazing ( £ 200 - £ 250 ) this will cut down a LOT on the noise level OR , a cheaper and BETTER solution ( though not cosmetically ?) is to build a wooden frame around the inner window , and fit 2 sliding wooden panels , made out of THICK...

if people didnt buy such tripe quality houses ( no offense ) in the 1st place, there wouldnt be any problems modern new builds are a joke, and ive spoked to estate agents that have said most people will buy a new build over a period house. has everyone had their brains removed ?

why is it almost impossible to buy** triple glazing windows in the UK ? does everyone live miles away from roads / traffic / neighbours ? clearly not. so for the sake of a few more £££ per window, we could all be having the benefits of triple glazing, but we dont, we all just...

I ' almost ' see the point of the points made, however, the worrying thing about the bump method, is that in a matter of seconds someone can enter your house making almost silently. if they kick in the window, and you are in bed, at least you will be alerted - using bump method they...

Hi, I recently got news about how easy it is to bump open cylinder locks, especially the euro ones fitted onto uPVC. Anyway, having removed one of my locks, to see how long it was ( was going to order a better replacement one ) , I quickly realised the whole system is stupidly easy to...

Currently, I am a part time villan, robbing banks and the odd post office, but money aint what it used to be, these days there are just too many cameras and too little money in safes. Im thinking about getting into a more lucrative career, somewhere where I CAN rob people legally, and earn...

absoultely correct, I can vouch for this, with some first hand experience with these yorkshire types. mean, ugly looking bunch, realistically, they have now been superceeded by better models. boogsy.

hi well, after using SPEEDFIT push-fit, all i can say is theyre excellent....... there is NO WAY the thing is gonna leak, once it grips, it holds on tighter than ( Insert joke here.........! ) BRILLIANT, and oh so easy to use, probably why real plumbers dont rate them ( cant blame...

gentlemen, on your advice, I am planning to use either of the above, to seal up the OVERFLOW hole / seal, on my ACYLIC BATH. Now, because the Acrylic is woven, like fibreglass, would SILICONE sealant be TOO STRONG a seal ? IE, if i ever need to removed the silicion, will it start...
