    V quick question for any plumbers/DIYers pls :-)

    Blocked heating pipe

    Morning all! Thought I'd post a quick update... The radiator is working fine, my entire system heats up in half the time, it's near-silent now and actually heats the house! I crafted some copper pipe onto the end of two hose pipes with hose-clips, and then attached these both to different...
