If Thecsystem heats your home why bother changing it?? There is specific TRVs for single pipe systems, ensure you have them, standard TRVs will not work & the flow through them is very limited. HTH

What 'greenwash' this evo-friendly thing is. All water in the world goes on a cycle, the saving in limiting the water usage is it saves the Water/Sewage companies treating 1000 of gallons of water unessarily. It'll have little or no effect on the very limited global warming that is happening if...

It think it would be more helpful if you provided more details rather than being abusive to one of the highly respected members here. You clearly have gone in to some detail of the gas supply, but failed to divulge the obvious: like size of the building, rough date of construction & type of...

Villiroy Boch would always be the best choice if your budget is extensive. Their porcelain is anti-skid marks & a lovely finish. Mostly manufactured in Italy & sold by the Germans. The B&Q etc stuff is generally poorly cast & the glazing as rough as a badgers bum. Look at that rubbish with a...

Unfortunately while £40/hour is reasonable rate for a skilled Plumbers in most areas. Around here any chancer will swop a bathroom suite for £35 all in. The Plumbing/heating trade is a mess. Successive governments have paid for & support cowboy courses in Plumbing & electrical trades. With the...

Like Dan I did our shower room a couple of years ago, again like Dan I fitted a wall hung WC. But I favour Dermit McDee frames & always Roca sanitary ware. For bog standard stuff, avoid the Wicks/B&Qs of this world. Most is cheap rubbish. Also a lot of High Street/online retailers sell...

First we'd need to establish its actually wet underfloor heating you have Joe. There should be a manifold like this somewhere in the property: http://www.theunderfloorsuperstore.co.uk/underfloor-heating-manifolds-16-c.asp

5 Bathrooms??!!! The OP did not share that with the rest of us!! Perhaps he's keeping that information for the older members amongst us, that are stuck in the Dark Ages?? [/i]

Sentinal expect every system to be checked annually & additional X100 added. This is far from enkeeping with attitude & practice of our trade, which at most would add 'some' inhibitor after installation & monitor the system water after some years or add some additional inhibitor if & when...

Given the higher water pressure for showers etc I don't think there's much debate. Certainly with an unvented cylinder there's more 'knobs,bells & whistles', therefore there's a high maintainace cost, but I think that outweighs the disadvantages of low pressure systems & the potential problems...

Guess who's just done his ACS?? Or is a Teacher?? You know what they say; those that can't do Teach.......... :wink: We always got calls this time of year to 'Turkey Burners' on gas ovens, this was where there was more Turkey baseting went over the over burner than the turkey & of course...

I hope you & the family are having a lovely Christmas la & all the best for the New Year......🎅🎅🎅🎉🎉🎉

What in a Fiat(fix it again tomorrow)???!!! Now you're having a laff la!! I can just picture it; smoke belching out the back, the steering wheel vibrating like a 3 phase Rampant Rabbit, a hub cap falling off & a the Bizzies shaking their head in disbelief & saying; 'Never seen one of them...

Ah, I see you're accumulating Penalty Points. I guess you don't know about the trick of pizzing on your number plates & then covering it in cling film???

You been speeding down the Scotty Road in your Motability Scooter again la???!!

Consult Dr Google, you're dead & buried in two weeks!!!

What John, the Labour fat f.ck??!!!

[/url] No, Darcy-Weisbach equation is pressure!! You're getting the two mixed up fella!!

This reminds me of a new home I worked on years ago. It was a very rural location with a Private water supply. The Architect for whom the house was being built, was from the 'Plumbing is easy' brigade. He'd buried about 2 Miles of 25mm MDPE pipe from the elevated 60M high water tank to his...
