Hi All, I'm looking at fixing a wall hung basin vanity but wanted to check how to fix to the wall with the supplied brackets. Can anyone offer any installation advice for the attached mounting type? Pictures would be most helpful.

I appreciate the advice. I got to the same conclusion but wanted to hear it from someone with more experience or if there something else that could be done. Not saying I won't replace it but in no rush just yet. Have sourced a new diverter assembly. Thanks again.

Rads not getting warm, just a short section of the supply from the diverter.

Thanks. I had another go at adjusting the microswitch. Seems ok for now.

Is the speed fit connector a twist lock one? Might give you a bit more compression if not already locked.

The hot water for the shower doesn't always come on but is ok for the other hot water taps - basin and kitchen sink. The shower has the lowest flow rate. I suspected the diverter valve diaphragm but there were no splits or tears. I replaced the diaphragm and everything else that came in the...

That makes sense on the inlet. I’ll continue it up over the roof line and put a standard vent on it. Will probably work out cheaper but was going for a cleaner look with the AAV. There was no other vent which seemed to have no impact on toilet flushing. When I took out the cast iron stack to...

Here you go. Also some info on the Floplast AAV.

Thanks for that. Unfortunately what I didn’t make abundantly clear in the cartoon is that the horizontal WC pipe needs to run tight the tiles because of the floor height inside the loft. If I raise the pan I will need a step or plinth to get onto it. With the horizontal WC pipe along the tiles...

Thanks for all the replies guys. Am please no-one has taken excepting to putting a branch in the horizontal. I could extend the vertical above the roof line but will have to negotiate the guttering with more bends. I quite like the clean look with the air admittance valve. I could extend the new...

Hi All, I have an odd situation where my loft waste pipe for the toilet runs close to the roof as it exits the wall. I need to do this so the toilet isn't too high in the loft. Because of this I can't get a branch over the eave in order to run the pipe above the roof line. I have sketched up a...

Great, thanks for clearing that up Nige.

Hi, I'm looking to connect my pan to the stack but. From the pan it will run through a wall with a fall and then turn 90° and fall again to the stack. Because of the 2 gradients and the bend the angle becomes compound and the pipe will not be parallel to the wall. The pipe from the pan to the...

Hope someone can offer advice on this. I have some 22mm Speedfit which comes directly from a shower pump and needs to go to waste. It will exit a dormer wall, turn 90° and connect to the vent stack (currently CI but will be replaced with plastic). From what I understand Speedfit isn't UV...

I was looking at the AKW and Whale instructions. That description was from AKW however the diagram only shows the 13A isolator. Will leave it up to the sparky but was curious to know what was needed, where to position etc. Thanks for the replies.

Hi All, Reading through some online installation instructions for shower waste pumps they dob't specifically state what x section cable to use. If given the following information for example, what would be the minimum sq mm? Thanks. '230V AC power supply must be provided with a two-pole...

Hi All, Has anyone used the above pump for shower waste? Am looking for replies and feedback from people who have used them and why they would or would not choose them over others like Whale. They look good on paper and claim to be quiet so is a good consideration. Also do they have to be used...

Thanks muggles. Have had a look at the installation instructions for this and looks good. Also came across the dry-deck 20 kit. Any reason for choosing the smoothflow over the dry-deck?

Hi all, Am planning the loft bathroom and have a few initial questions. I want it to be a wet room style so won't raise it from the existing floor level and also don't have a lot of head height to play with. The layout won't allow a waste pipe to fall to the soil pipe as I can't go...

Similar to a recent posted question. Asking for advice on how to finish the plasterboarding to a narrow window reveal. I have attached pictures of how it is without the wall plasterboarded and then with a small section for reference. How do I finish the exposed wooden section that will...
