. . I did and they said tighten the nut or replace the washers...... unfortunately I can't see either on my tank???? I replied saying this but they didnt get back to me. Calling the local installer of these tanks said the tank needs replacing??? Hence my request on here for further...

. . Has anybody investigated how the connection is made on the feed pipe coming out of a Titan LP1200 oil tank. This tank is about 11 years old and has been recently moved and connected back up. After filling the tank with heating oil a slight weep was noted at the junction between the...

* * Hi guys n gals... Scenario is we have a wood burning stove linked to a thermal store. To keep the system simple it is designed to run using thermosyphoning to transfer the heat from the stove to the tank..... nice and straight forward.... However, when the stove is NOT lit and we...

. . Yes. Yes. Electric with immersion heater and standard oil boiler. Good question.... there are six adults (well 2 adults and 4 teenagers!). Could be more with guests. It's a mad rush in the morning for washes/showers. Washing machine on, may be dishwasher and the same in the...

. . If cost came into it then the above yes, otherwise you colud throw lots of money at a small solar system maybe? I'm not sure of the whys and wherefores, pros and cons of either way of doing it. :? . .

. . Hot water storage, is it better to store LOADS of hot water in a well insulated tank and keep the temperature topped up, or produce the hot water on demand, as and when required? If the latter then I guess it means you could do away with a storage tank all together and use one of those...

. . Ok, the shop sent a different aerator for the mixer tap...... somehow I don't think this will resolve the issue, do you? Incidentally, I was going to fit the aerator myself but when I unscrewed the existing "high pressure" aerator I found the filter behind it was clogged with all sorts...

. . Remember a while back in this post and I was complaining about the heat in the thermal store thermosyphoning into the loft and the heat leak rads. Someone suggested a N.O. valve the will fail safe and open if the is a power cut to allow the heat from the wood stove to thermosyphon in to...

. . Typical eh, the taps that were installed when the place was built in 1965 are still working fine, maybe the odd washer change...costing pence..... and the plug works fine, maybe that has been changed once in a while... again pence... Fashion victims.....I hate it! :( . .

. . Dooh... The shop we got the wetroom fittings from is sending something through for the fitter to fit. Apparently it should have been fitted in the first place?? Will keep you posted. . .

. Mmmm... the tap is a single hole lever mixer, monobloc I think.... http://www.gwsupplies.co.uk/bathrooms/p/6892/hansgrohe+talis+e+basin+mixer.htm The model is a Hansgrohe Talis E2 with pop-up lever. After looking on the 'net it appears the taps are available in high and low pressure...

. . Ok, I think I have an issue with a new basin taps that were recently installed. The tap has a really low flow rate on the hot but the cold flow rate is ok. The other point is that the tap is a mixer tap and when put half and half it appears to mix ok but switching back to HOT the...

Well Southhampton is too far for you to come and fix my plumbing. So the connection I allegedly have with Jockland, was that the crap install at the beginning of the post? Gradually working it's way south! LOL

. . Jockland?, am I? LOL.... :roll: How did I manage that? I was doing a search for a 28mm bender in the forum, came across someone who had had a crappy install done and someone commented how "you pays your money..." but I was the opposite, I paid a bloody fortune and STILL got a crap...

. . I know!! He started the install nearly 13 months ago!!! LOL... Ok, well 7 months ago.... LOL.... Even so I could still do with someone checking this system over... . .

. . I wish that was the case with us!! Took the most expensive quote, probably 25% more than the rest, he had all the certificates, etc etc HETAS registered, the lot! .... said the job would take a "few weeks" and it is now nearing it's SEVENTH month!! The system is STILL not working or...

. . Rapidly coming to the conclusion that the gravity side of things needs to be pumped given we are in a bungalow.... Have been chatting on the Navitron forum http://www.navitron.org.uk/forum/index.php/topic,7514.0.html and was given a link to a useful article *****I am not sure...

. . Ok, it looks like the new DHW tank is coming out after the plumber sort of admits he has made a cock-up... He is now talking about a horizontal cylinder in the loft. At least we may get the kitchen space back but don't hold your breath, anything could happen!! Right, this may be an...

. . .. pity you are down Norwich way 'cos I could have done with a project manager to keep the "plumber" in line.... :P . .

I was hoping he would know how to connect them correctly in the first place. :( . .
