thx

Thanks. Yes, that is my issue i.e. I dont have a brick wall coming up to the top of the loft floor hence the lack of cavity wall to put this frame into. But someone said to me that you can get off the floor toilets which dont have to be wall mounted but as you say, have to build a plywood...

https://www.pinterest.ie/pin/277604764507113261/ Here's your levitating toilet.

Apparently you can get toilets which are not wall hung but have a frame of other sorts. Clearly you dont know about them.

Any suggestions please for a toilet which is not wall hung using a Geberit frame but is still off the floor? this is for a loft bathroom which has only a 200mm or so thin wall.

I actually had 4 spare Sanlumia IP65 downlighters spare from when I built a new kitchen extension 4 years ago and as I mentioned and uploaded the earlier photo. However, it looks a bit ugly as the home is small and the bulb is further recessed in which prevents light from escaping. Hence I...

So I ended up buying this downlighter from tool station. https://www.toolstation.com/fire-rated-cast-gu10-downlight/p49149#full-desc I thought that because it had a 60 minute fire rating they are class as IP65 but it didn't mention any of this on the website but on the box it's rates as IP 20...

What is that gold thing on the central heating return if it’s not a magnetic filter? Because my home emergency policy won’t cover the replacement of the plate heat exchanger (which is now clogged) until I do a power flush, I still need to get this done asap. not sure how me trying to do a...

What would it cost me to get a power flush done? I have 14 radiators across three floors which including three towel radiators. is there any risk to damage or burst to internal pipes when doing a power flush? What bar pressure do they operate at?

It has safety cut outs preventing it from getting any hotter and the fan throws out excess heat, so it’s fine. But that still needs sorting. The plate heat exchanger is blocked.

By open vent I take that to mean a small water tank in the loft? If so then no. It’s a sealed system and we top it up when it falls below 1 bar with a filling loop connected to the boiler. The boiler has a 40 litre tank combined in the combi boiler system itself.

I recall the gold filter thing was cleaned out during the last service in Aug 2020. Was planning to do the next service this summer.

It is never been “power flushed” if that’s what you mean. My parents have owned the house since 1970 but of course the system has been drained lots of times since then. Probably emptied completely and refilled some 3 or 4 times since 2017 when the new boiler went in at a different location...

Yes, there is one on the central heating return pipe going into the boiler as per the pic (2nd pipe to the left with the gold thing) and has some anti scale thing on the cold inlet (second to the right). Also what is an approx cost to power flush and how long does it take?

My 4 year old Viessman boiler has just gone faulty due to the heat exchanger being clogged by sludge and the engineer saying its full of dirt. Last week I had some builders doing up my bathroom and took off the radiator and emptied and refilled the system (and I had to remove all the trapped...

Could I please get some advice on how best to approach the idea of finding the right company in NW London to powerflush a 4/5 bed semi home that has never been power flushed before and has radiators. What are the things to watch out for and what is the correct way of doing it as I understand...

Have now been told its the one of the heat exchangers that is the issue - sludge in the system.

Got the above 4-year old combi boiler which has a built in 40 litre storage tank. Had a radiator removed and a new towel radiator fitted by a handyman. Boiler went on the blink after he partially drained the system to also change some pipe work in a bathroom and capped off each side of the...

I am probably also getting confused by the fact that I thought these lights might need a can - which I know is for fire protection. As these are going on a first floor bathroom, do they not then need to be fire rated too if I go for some IP44 ones rather than the IP65 ones I bought above? I'm...

No they are LED spot lights not halogens. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01NAUKU46/ref=cm_sw_r_em_api_i_2EQNDPMP9SG9HBFW1DZH?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
