    Help! Feed & Expansion tank won't empty!

    No need to drain, just turn the valves off at each end of the radiator, unscrew the nuts which connect to the radiator (have something at hand to catch the water) and take radiator off the wall. Job done.

    bathroom drainage

    You cuold get away with this but if your bath is on the run after the sink and you were to empty them both together, your sink would drain very slowly. Also your sink is 32mm and your bath is 40mm on the waste so you will need to modify your waste pipe to suite.

    emachine DVD150 / Lomita 010116 M/B Problem

    E-Machines in general are a nightmare to repair, you want to try matching up the memory modules, impossible. My opinion is that if you have a lot of patience and money, delve in and fault find, but basic parts that are compitible fail to function ..... i no longer touch these machines as you...

    Noisy Pipes in loft ensuite shower

    If possible look on the pipe runs up to the shower thats making the noise for isolating valves, try regulating them. If this isn't the case a little more information on the noise would be helpful: Is it a whistling noise? Water gushing noise? Banging noise?

    Thermostat controlled radiators plumbed in wrong way round

    DANGEROUS HEATING TURNED OFF

    Ok, first of all you CAN be isolated, they are doing it to protect you and your family. Secondly if the company who failed the installation fitted the boiler, then i suggest you get onto their management team first thing in the morning and sort it out, if you have a maintenance contract...
