Thanks for the reply. Am i right in assuming the isolation valves act like a lock shield as no other means of restricting flow in this area. and all other rads are turned down

Balancing some radiators up in a pub. There are seven rads and in the bar area there are 22mm pipes running under a seated area with what looks like run of silver fins probably 5 inch thick all the way around the pipes under the seating probably 10 metres. This area is banging hot. Ive managed...

A mate of mine lives in a downstairs flat with a back boiler, a copper cylinder and one tank which is f&e size. All of a sudden the pressure on his hot water tap has become a trickle. Could this problem be caused by an airlock? The system has not been interfered with for about 6 months. The...

Thanks for the advice. Weve already built a frame for the cisterns and knew about the 350mm gap. The tanks will be lifted the same heights. I cant see a problem with it myself, extending the pipework 3 feet. Out of interest why would the vent pipe pump over. Is it if the cw cistern is placed...

Working on a loft job where the cw cistern and feed and expansion tanks need moving about three feet higher and slightly to one side. Is it a case of turning the incoming supply off, draining the ch system and cw cistern.

Cheers. Thanks for reply

Cheers. But if the washer was collapsed would this stop the taps from flowing

Freind has a coal fire with back boiler. In the bathroom the flow from the hot tap is very poor on the wash basin. ANd on the bath the flow on the cold is non existant. What could be the cause. Is it the taps that are shagged or a system problem. There are no isolation valves or flexible...
