I'm in a terraced house, which is divided into 3 appartments, mine being the 2nd floor and loft. How do I go about having the mains flow rate increased, I checked the tap in the ground floor and its fully open..?

Just measured the flow from the kitchen tap which is located 1.5 meters above the boiler and 5 meters horizontally away. Hot water = 2 litres in 20 seconds Cold water = 2 litres in 16 seconds Any advice would be greatly appreciated..

Ok, will check the floe rate at the kitchen hot water tap tommorow after work. The boiler I was looking to buy is the Baxi platinum. Will turning the hot water dial on the boiler to max make a difference to the flow rate..? I was under the impression this is more like a temperature gauge...

Thats the word I was looking for! Flow rate, yes flow rate. I am getting 2 litres every 20 seconds at the bath tap. And this is when the boiler knob is only half way round for the hot water. Is this normal..? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, Since moving into my 2 storey flat 3 years ago, I have had to top up the water using the filling loop below the boiler as the pressure has been reducing to below 0.5 bar. (I top up to 1 bar when cold) This summer I noticed a damp patch in the wall below a lot of the central heating...

Pefect thanks!

No, not the frames, just the sills. I plan to completely strip so hopefully will be good preperation.

The hombase paint is a primer and undercoat all in one for masonary. I used it on my back windows and was a great base for the dulux weathershield. I'm now thinking i should swap the dulux weathershield for wood and metal for weathershield masonary.. I used the weathershild gloss on the...

Hi, What is the easiest way to strip these concrete cills (i think maybe sandstone)? I have a heat gun.. Then paint with homebase primer and undercoat all in one. Then weathershield white gloss. When stripping and painting my back windows I never achieved a completey smoth glass like...
