Hi guys, Fitted the above mixer, lever type, new pipework etc in bathroom. Used a isolation valve on the 15mm, before the flexi's supplied with the mixer. All works fine, except that when drawing off water the tap makes a sort of 'whoosing' noise! The noise is worse with the lever in...

The ply goes right along the complete width of the unit, then there is a void I mentioned behind it which is about 100mm deep. By the look of it the ply is stapled to the frame so not sure removing it is possible. Thanks for the advice any further thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated

Hi Guys, Need to install a vanity unit and am a bit confused!!! Its the type that has a large ceramic sink that covers the whole unit, no worktop. Looking at the unit itself that is already built, there is a void at the back that I assume is to hide the pipe work and waste so you can...

Was doing it with boiler running, when draining the tank to stop the overflow, it would take about 2/3 days of normal use before filling up again and overflowing.....turned boiler off completley so only heating with immersion and the same happened, about the same time frame...

Quality, you can take the nice new washed and fluffed up towels from the first part of the cupboard into the next, enjoy the growing items that have been aided by the wifes sun lamps and use them to have a kip on later.........my god, hope this was a very big airing cupboard to start...

Had the same problem with mine, never quite managed to be 100% certain through diagnosis, in the end bit the bullet, changed the cylinder, not a single drop has come out my overflow since. Conclusion, coil holed. Mind you, with mine, without the boiler working and just the immersion heating...

Blas, like your thoughts with this one, you could go one step further, still install the radiator, plus a light behind your shelves and grow things that like a lot of heat and light :lol: :lol: :oops: :lol: :lol:

Have seen people install a very small radiator in them if the pipework is near to the cupboard, this way it costs you nothing. Only downside is in the summer, but you prob would not want even an electric one on then.

Hi, After a bit of advice guys, house with a system boiler and gravity fed hot water, has central heating to most of the rooms apart from two bedrooms, which are adjacent to each other, want to add a radiator in both these rooms. Will be replacing some of the radiators downstairs so a good...

Agile hopefully you can see this now? Many thanks

Thanks for all the advice and replys on this guys, have uploded a very crude paint drawing of the proposed layout, can you let me know what you think? Apologies for the drawing, art was never a strong point :shock:

Thanks for the advice, to clarify the landing is quite long and narrow where the main 22mm would run, the intention in apart from feeding the bedroom radiators with 22mm, except the tails, would be drop down at one point in 15mm to feed two radiators, tee of again halfway down the landing to...

Thanks for the quick reply JPC, just a standard 3 bed terraced, one bathroom upstairs and sink to kitchen. Flow and return is planned to start in 22mm from bedroom at front of house, across to bathroom, out to hall and into back bedroom and terminating, so teeing of in 15mm to 3 bed radiators...

Hi Guys, As title, new combi boiler being installed in a renovation project, (property never had a combi before) The bathroom is also being replaced in the process, with all the very old plastic pipe feeding the hot and cold being replaced with copper. My question is, from a combi, will...

advice for repairing spot on, maybe a little over cautious, but if it was me and you are not doing it for a few weeks I would close the valves and drain the rad out sooner rather than later. God forbid it does come away from the wall more than it is in the middle of the night or when you are...

Thanks for all the advice on this, I can not retain the current stopcock as renovation and building work would mean it being stuck in the middle of a opened up room! Hence new pipework in the first place. I need to move the whole supply into the ouse to where the new kitchen area will be, not...

So all is good then? Thanks for taking the time to sort this out.

Thanks Seco, so you can pump hot and cold to it? The info got me a bit confused as it seemed to say you could pump hot but have mains pressure cold, hence the question! Cheers

Hi Guys, Can I fit a twin impeller pump to the above shower valve? Gravity fed hot water, there is an old shower with integral pump at the moment, so there is a cold feed from the CWS and feed from the HWC to utilise. If this shower is not suitable, can anyone recommend one? Cheers
