Hi guys. A friend of mine has the intention of redoing her bathroom and would like a wall hung toilet. I know that metal framework are sold for this type of toilets but i was wondering if it is possible to install such toilets with metal framework where the wall in question is a partition wall...

Thanks m8 it was indeed the overheat reset button that had tripped....ooophhhh that has saved me a few quid for the call out:)...As far as the fan is concerned, as i mentioned beforehand, sometimes it keeps running even though the hw and ch are satisfied until i switch the boiler switch off...

hi guys i would really appreciate your expertize on this issue. I have an open vent system with 2*2port valve and a Potterton Prima F50. The ch mv needed changing as the micro switch was sticking. I changed it, refill the system, bled the rads and called for hw. The boiler fired ok, then i...

Gotcha thank you very much m8:)

hi doitall and thanks for your prompt reply. Do you mean a pushfit fitting? Send a picture or a link if you can please. And will it be ok to use under floorboard or there is a risk of a leak in the long run? Thanks again.

Hi guys. A friend of mine wants to do up his bathroom and relocate the toilet. The toilet will be moved by 1.5 m. so my question is how difficult is it to add 1.5 m of extention pipe under the floorboard by myself. Basically i will have to put cement weld stuff on both the 1.5 m of extention...

Hi m8. My bath and overflow are perfectly ok it is just a matter of routing the cwsc warning pipe into the bathtub overflow manifold which is a bit of a pain because the toilet cistern gets in the way. I suppose the only thing to do is to cut out a channel in the wall at the back of the toilet...

Thanks to everyone for the valuable inputs on this thread.....your pieces of advice have been much appreciated.

Hi Tony do not go and answer the phone when you are running the water in your bath :lol:

Unfortunately that is not an option. I think that i will have to go with Beerlover's suggestion........run the pipe at the back of toilet cistern...........or what i could do is to advance the toilet forward and run the warning pipe behind the cistern without having to cut out a channel for...

...............but i still can not understand what the toilet inlet has got to do with the cwsc warning pipe :? I am certainly missing a point there...can anyone explain to me please?

Hi Beerlover i do not understand what you mean about the cistern being side inlet.....the toilet cistern has got an internal overflow so i can not connect the cwsc overflow pipe up to the toilet inlet overflow pipe if that is what you mean. Cutting a channel out behind the toilet cistern could...

Thanks Charnwood for your answer. That is a very valid point however, i will bump into that situation only when or if the water in cwsc overflows and if that happens i will cut the overflow pipe, let the stagnant water run out and couple the pipe back......i am just trying to think of a...

Hi guys. I need to connect a cwsc and hwsc warning pipe to the bathtub overflow manifold. The problem is i can not give the the warning pipe a continuous slope. The closed coupled toilet gets in the way so i have to run it inbetween the toilet cistern and the pan outlet then go up 5 inch before...

Toilet runs on cwsc that's why I thought opening kitchen tap would get rid of water in rising main feeding flats above mine.......am I wrong in assuming that?

Hi guys i need to change a stopcock in a flat on the sixth floor of a block of flat. We managed to identify the common stopcock feeding the other flats and my question is: Once i have turned the common stopcock off and cut in the rising main above the old stop cock ( which i will leave there)...

Thanks for your answer Richard.....btw do i have to seal the cut out with pva before i fill the channel in with cement addy or bonding plaster? Ta.

Hi guys i have to fill up a 40mm channel which i made to run cold feed pipe to shower. Can i use cement based powder tile adhesive or is that not meant for such a depth? I want it to dry rather quickly and i have read on this forum to avoid plaster due to long dry out time. Thank you
