Thats it! That's it!! It;s the third one along. Thank you all!! Now how do I decide what rating? 600vA tranny, output load is currently 520W

Weird huh? It was on the 240v side in series with the N wire (!!!). Specifically, the mains N runs into a connector block, & this thing bridged from that terminal into the one next to it, which had the N wire to the tranny. Now I dont know if it was a capacitor! It's a 1cm disc, wire on...

what to do? I have a 600vA transformer running a 12v halogen dimmable lighting system in my surgery. After many years, today the lights grew dim & went out. The small capacitor on the mains neutral side of the transfomer has burnt away & I cannot identify its pF. Can anyone recommend...

I'm looking to fit this valve (with aquadimmer) into a breezeblock wall, but including tiling I have a maximum thickness of 86mm. Anyone know if this is suficient or should I just go for the surface mounted? The other side of the wall is a bedroom so it needs to just fit, with a bit of...

Thanks Chris! most encouraging. Are you referring to the ones where most of the pan is full of water before flushing?

Thanks Al, but exactly what Im worried about - pipe will only be about 300mm long - heat bending is going to introduce someting like 2 x 45 degree bends - I need to be confident that this wont disrupt water flow so much that the lav wont flush! I know some pans are more efficient flushers...

Just keep the TRVs. Frankly I find them confusing & all my rooms are at diffrent temps based on the TRV settings, all works a treat!

Any recommendations? I need to fit a wallhung pan, but the (hidden) cistern cannot fit squarely behind it, the pan inlet will be about 150mm off centre of the cistern, & the cistern cannot be wider than 480mm. I'm really reluctant to start introducing bends in pipes unless I can find a pan...

Thanks! The plumber briefly ran a tap & stopped the flow with his finger & said it was 'ok, but best get a low pressure mixer'. Most seem to work a minimum 1 bar, I'm sure i've got more than that!

doh. Thanks Eddie!

May I ask some advice? I've just been told by a bathroom fitter that I need to get an expensive low pressure mixer as my combi boiler HW pressure isn't too great (CW is fine, 20ft of head) I am new to the world of showers so I my plans to just get the cheapest from Plumbworld just went into...

I'm stuck! Several of the door frames in my house have worked loose over the years. Ther are all fixed in breezeblock, I've tried fixing one with a log screw & plasplug, but it hasn't worked. Any ideas??
