ok oilman its a draw

as long as contaminated water cant get into the main supply you will be ok the ones I buy do not have isolators in built that bolt or screw is not an isolator

oilman in your last post last paragraph you should have checked your spelling mate. :lol: mind you you did state reasonably literate, ok I know the m&n are close together and your hands are cold so we will forgive you

Thanks oilman the work is out there to pay for the assesment as long as I pass the thing I have two jobs in hand this is what made me look at the course in the first place. Just have to hope its sustainable work the average charge for annual service round here is £70.00 does this sound...

buy an external tap with built in dbl check valve. definitely fit an isolater to it inside the property so you can turn it off in an emergency lag exposed pipe work in simple terms a single check valve is needed if any backflow of water will change the taste or colour or temperature of your...

hi can anyone tell me where is the best place to buy servicing and test equipment for domestic oil fired central heating units. need to know costs so that i can justify the oftec course Thanks Brian

is the lever or knob that operates the shower scaled up I would take this off first and give it a clean up check its lifting or moving enough to open fully. when you turn the cold tap on in the basin its reducing the cold water pressure and balancing the hot and cold supply to the shower...

22mm circuit with 15mm to rads sounds ok why are you doubting the plumber unless of course it doesnt work. quite often nowdays on pressurised systems the whole lot is run in 15mm apart from a couple of metres to and from the boiler they work perfectly well.

assuming the pressure on the other taps is ok. You will need to take the tap apart replace washer and seals re grease with silicon and put it back together again. search forum as there was a similar problem not long ago.

how about the hot water in the bathroom what is that like

how big is your attic could you not put a hot and cold tank up there and heat the tank on a trv, supply the shower with a pump. or opt for a sealed system boiler not combi with the hot cylinder in the loft? the way your looking at the moment will give you very expensive running costs for no...

hi plumbworld do one 4 bar for £3.00

it is probably still scale from the hot water cylinder or pipes unless the cold tank is contaminated have a look.

depends on the pipe work and how its routed but yes it is possible to carry on topping up for a week or more keep bleeding the rads. auto vent should always be open

Great hope you dont live near norfolk or we will have to have a trade war lol :evil: :lol:

had a call yesterdayexactly same problem went there tap washer had perished and welded itself to the body stopping the flow. the tap was tight due to the silicon grease on the thread being non- existent and 10 ton of scale jamming the thing up. all done 20 mins work including dragging the...

yes i totally agree with you all it is a minefield. what i was getting at was if joe bloggs fitted a boiler 1 year ago then moves out, the new owner now wants the gas supply moved, Would you do it. My answer is yes you would. because you dont no the history. So is there any difference...

this depends on the type of tap ceramic disc is quarter turn on off tap washer turns and tightens down softley if it is washer type for the cost of washers its worth a go, if its the c/d type you will need to find out the type of cartridge first. in other words take it to your local...

plumbing merchant I got mine from pts its just a pressure gauge for a sealed sytem garden tap is fine.

there should be no leaks anywhere inherited or paid for it would help if you mentioned the boiler make and model but i would say you probably need a new diaghram or diverter
