Thanks for that. Guessed it would be a "by feel" type thing, but needed some guidance which you have given nicely :) I'll give it another shot tonight. Due to the constrcution fo the bowl it's quite tricky to get to the fixings once it is against the wall, but I 'should' be able to do it :)...

Ok, so I am already having plenty of problems with fitting this loo due to space constraints etc, and the waste pipe... however... It is a close coupled toilet, of the sort where you fit screws and cone rubber washers IN the cistern, and then apply bolts on the outside. Similarly the flush is...

Thanks for your prompt reply, so no need to seal it to the wall at all? Excellent, the less I have to do with that manky gets-everywhere silicone sealent the better! :lol:

I am currently fitting a close coupled toilet in the bathroom. Most infomration I have seen about fitting indicates that normalyl you would screw the pedestal to the floor, and the cistern to the wall, however the cistern on my loo has no screw holes in the back of it. Is this normal? Does...

I recently ran some cleaner around in my central heating system after doing some work, and then flushed and refilled. As much as the system seems to be working fine now, and refilled ok etc, if I listen near to the pump in the airing cupboard it sounds like there is air in the water. Not an...

I guess you could feed it from a thermostatic mixer?

We used to get this with our old door. I believe it was where the draft excluder strip (weather strip?) wasn't sealing against the door entirely when it was shut.

Had a pond for several years at a previous property and never were the pond pumps supplied with a plug. Water features on the other DO seem to be. I think the difference is that a water feature is intended as a mobile item, you may want to reposition it in the garden etc. However a pond pump...

Heat would definitly be more of a concern to me than the cold. Don't know about yours but my loft gets slifling hot in the summer, and I wouldn't relish the idea of having heat generating network equipment stashed away up there too. I guess it all depends on the state of your loft

All done now :) X800 drained out of all drained points until no more water would come out of the system. Then turned the supply back on to the FE tank and allowed the water to flow freely out of each drain off point in turn until the water was nice and clear (and ice cold!). Then closed the...

K, sounds good, keeps my hands warm and the hose pipe flexible without risk of burning :lol:

Cheers Tony, will go ahead with the drain, flush, and refill tonight then :) Incidently does it matter whether the system water is hot or cold when I actually drain it? I know it says to circulate it hot, but I don't know if it should be hot when I drain it too? Maybe it holds the sludge...

Ok, I've seen a few posts on this subject but none actually seem to give an answer, (so perhaps there isn't one?) I've done some work on my heating system, and when working around the pump / vent / cold fill area I noticed the pipes had quite a nasty buildup of rust and black sludge stuck to...

Just out of interest, which are you doing? IP packet sniffing and monitoring, or playing peeping Tom at their windows? What does annoy me, is when, like my neighbours, they insist on running a wireless-n system, and 2 wireless g on seperate channels too!

I work in the electronics industry and we have a similar issue here. If it takes you more than once or twice to learn NOT to try catch the soldering iron you just knocked off the desk then electronics is not for you! It's one of those things that is so hot that when you catch it (by the hot...
