hello guys I have two bathrooms in my house. They are separately connected to the public sewer with their own stacks. The main bathroom uses a stack that vents to outside. The second one is capped off just above the branch. Is it acceptable to install an external air admittance valve on...

Cavity wall pumped insulation that was left over?

Yeah could do. I would rather swap it for a house pump but we’re talking over £200. Wife says hell no! Our current pump is in good condition and seems a shame to remove it. Resale wouldn’t be great for it either. I’ve looked at those Grundfos UPA 90 boosters that sit in line but no experience...

ok, probably not a good idea then. So either fit a single impeller model for that purpose, or swap out what I have for a whole house alternative. Darn.

Hi guys, I have a shower pump (RSP75) which powers two showers at the moment. It's now out of warranty and I want to use it to power hot taps as well. I know it's not designed for that but my view is to use it in a non designed config until it breaks and then replace with a house pump...

Just thought I’d add that the water co have been and can’t explain it. They unscrewed the meter and found it on the inside of it too so swapped it out. Will be an interesting phone call when they report findings. Pleased it’s from outside though rather than something in the house...

I get this in my house. Due to upstairs walls sitting on floorboards which means they move around. Has been happening for decades in my house so I wouldn’t worry. Just use good filler and accept it may happen again in a few years.

Has anyone ever come across the following picture in a residential water supply BA6D7E42-BD11-43A3-AD22-B36676DB0A1F by adwt2004 posted 16 Feb 2018 at 7:51 PM It’s like black plastic bag material. This stuff initially was causing my loo to not shut off and I have been cleaning the stuff out...

Lay it flat so it’s 140 high

Hi Could someone in the know confirm that this lintel https://www.buildbase.co.uk/supreme-prestress-concrete-10307-2801064 Can be placed in any orientation? I think it can but would appreciate confirmation from someone Thank you

100mm full fill dritherm 32 has been specced for my build, is there something thinner which achieves the same heat loss rating? Cost is not an issue.

Yes that’s right. I will see what it looks like first before considering making it flat. Thanks guys, just wanted a good idea of what’s expected.

Well it forms part of the current kitchen and is already there. I am then adding an extension to the end of it.
