Thanks mate. Entry qualifications shouldn't be a problem. Cost is a major issue (If I am not being paid !!!!). Thanks again for the reply.

Hi again !! I am trying to weigh up, what I need in order to fit a shower tray in a en suite. I have a low obstruction where the shower door needs to go at 2M. I have seen a bifold door with a height of 1850mm, which is the one I want to install. But am worried, that once I raise the...

My employer has just put me through a 17th ed course and a 2391 I&T. Still waiting on the theory result, but passed the practical. I work as an engineer for a large company, covering all aspects of communications. Mainly RF stuff. I am NOT a qualified spark, but am electrical engineering...

Because I have a limited height, I can raise the tray !!! But, not a silly question !!

Hi, Nice and easy one. What is the min fall on a shower tray waste outlet ? Thanks.

Ha, yeh they both sound extreme (ly) expensive !!! I am embarrased to say, I dont even know where my internal stopcock is !!!! :oops: When I redone the kitchen a couple of years ago, I couldn't find it and have kind of just ignored the fact !!!!! I reckon the previous owner has locked...

Thanks GS85. Yeh I figured on that !! Is there a solution to that problem ?

Hi and thanks in advance for any advice offered. I am in the process of installing a en suite and want to install a thermo shower. I currently have one installed in the bathroom, about 5M away (as the pipes would run). This is supplied from the H/C bath pipes (as far as I can tell) and...

MMM. That might be an issue. I was planning on using the gutter drain at the front of the house, but I dont know if that runs to the sewer !!!! I can feel a lot of digging coming up. Back to that toilet I guess. Why do we start these jobs eh !!!! I remember saying to the 'boss'...

Hi Denso, these are not an issue, I believe the waste from these can go to a rain drain ? Which is accessible, quite easily at that side of the house. The floor is standard wooden joists !! I intend to exit the exterior wall and slope off to a 3" gutter down pipe.

Thanks for the replies. I now have all the ammo I need. NO TOILET !!!! WHEW !!! Thanks again. No doubt I will be asking more questions as the job progresses !!!

Thanks for the reply Denso. I would really like to avoid the digging if at all possible. Simply as it would mean digging up the drive, etc, etc and a great deal more expense. So I guess what I really want to know is.... Is it possible to do it WITHOUT digging and laying a NEW drainage...

Hi, I am in the process of installing an 'on suite' shower room, in the master bedroom. The missis now wants a toilet fitting in the room, but I am not entirely sure how much work is involved or wether it can even be done !!! I realise I can dig up half of my garden and install a new 4"...

Thanks, that was exactly what I wanted to hear !!!! And the answer to your question is. "What is that lump in your trunks Batman ?"

Hi, I have a broken sewer pipe, which is visible, from a manhole just before the pipe leaves my garden. It is an old clay pipe, would I need to have any repairs inspected by building control ? Also, would this type of work, normally be covered by insurance ? This is not a burst pipe...

thanks Chris, Yeh, wasn't too sure wether to use 230v or just the nominal, but thanks. I was going to use a 5A fuse, so you have confirmed that what I was doing originally was fine. Thanks again to all replies. The saga continues !!!!!!!!

Sorry guys. It is a 700W cable. (70m@10W per M). So by my calculations, drawing 2.9A It will be used mainly on a timer and I was only planning on using the stat as an isolation point to be honest, until a friend said it should be further isolated !!! He is not a spark though ! So...

Hi Finally in the process of laying under floor heating. I have fitted a RCD FCU, on the supply, do I also need some other means of isolation for the circuit. If so, I guess it will go between RCD and Stat ?? Is that correct ? Thanks again.

God I love this site. That is fantastic !!! Cheers mate.

Cheers, I was hoping that was going to be the answer !!!! I guess if I had any sense I would have checked before shelling out 500 notes though !!!! Thanks Big All.
