    More efficient central heating

    Hi, I've worked all these out now. In the end we called out British Gas because it was not working as it should have been. Not just a case of needing it to be more effective for us, we were finding that we had either heating or water, but not both. The solution was: 1) Replace the...

I can slide the bottom slider across to have just the hot water on, but I cannot slide the top slider (central heating) without it also moving the bottom one and turning on the hot water as well.

    Finding a mixer shower

    Thanks for this. I looked into it and the extending arms work for 133-153. However, I'm wondering if I could use one of the extending arms and then the normal arm on the other side. I've worked out this would give me 121.5 which could work out. Anyone know if this is possible. MS

    Finding a mixer shower

    Hi, I'm trying to fit a new mixer shower for a bathroom and I'm trying to avoid re-plumbing some pipes. I have existing hot and cold water pipes coming in for a washing machine. They are level and cold left and hot right. The one problem I have is the centres are at 120mm and I can't find a...
