I can order the beds 3 phase - no cost differance. I will ask about getting 3 phase installed but I think it's gonna cost more than we have. I am starting the business on some redundancy money so the budget is all spoken for - not ideal but this is make or break for us. They would never get...

Yeah that's what the manufacturers are saying. They are 60 tube 200w units.

thanks for the fast response plugwash :D this is a new venture so I don't know how long the sunbeds will be running for but definatly not continuously... I am estimating about 20 hours a week on and off.

Hi... I hope you guys can help I am trying to open a very small beauty/tanning salon. Our problem is the amps of the sunbeds. We need 2 sunbeds that start up at about 60 amps and operate at 50 amps. So that's 100 amps total... but the supply in the shop is only 100 amps. The sunbed...

thanks for the reply... I have got a pipeslice somewhere, will get another if it won't go round that size pipe. I was gonna try the push on type connector are they any good? Yeah, good plan about having a mate with me. Cheers

UPDATE: Made not a lot of progress today. The big CW cistern tank in the loft does NOT feed any cold water taps or toilet flush system. I ran all cold taps in the house and flushed the toilet and nothing. So this must only be to supply the DHW cylinder in the bedroom below. I have...

I think I have got it: The small insulated cistern in the loft is the F&E tank if so... the primary circuit, so the F&E can top up the boiler if needed and take and water it or the circuit it's on needs to displace? And that water primary circuit doesn't mix with the stored hot water. Only...

Softus - a big thank you is due mate I am on a learning curve here and you are helping a great deal ChrisR and oilman - thanks for sticking with me through this, I can appreciate the time it takes so a big thanks to you also I will crack on tomorrow, will be after 3 physically as I...

Ah, yes sorry I forgot... will have to do that tomorrow Anyone - I still don't understand where the small tank in the loft comes into play? anyone have a link or can explain in laymans

Hi Chris thaks for the reply mate, I am going to elaborate in my replys just to make sure I don't miss anything so please don't just think I am waffling on or anything: Yes I have a vent pipe, you can see it poking over the top of the CW cistern on the 1st photo on page 1 of this thread. I...

Hi... no the info is very clear thanks for that. Thanks for ID'ing my type of cylinder. Some more Q's for you if it's not too much bother 1. whats the differance between steam and water vapour? (just out of curiosity) 2. when you say the purpose of the Immersion heater is as back-up...

Brillient... so now really just have to check for steam. Anyone - if the Immersion does have a scale problem, is this why the I have slow flow... due to restricted current on the hot water out flow to taps? Also, can anyone tell me if either of these are like my Immersion thanks

OK, will set it lower to 50 deg tomorrow and investigate further (can not mess now as my son is in bed) Is the "outlet" the tap on the wall in the photo I posted :?: New cable? No, but I did cut burnt bits back to good wire. The only instructions in the the thermastat box were not...

so the cylinder should NOT be full? do you think it's OK to try then? even with the slow flow to the hot taps? are we/me still thinking I have a block between the small tank and the cylinder... I am still confused, is this what my system is? or this

LOL yeh, but can you un-block them with a piece of wire. Right, I have fitted the new 18" B&Q thermastat. Only thing is, it's say not to turn the cylider back on untilrefolled with water. Well I dipped the new stat in and out and it's bone dry so not full of water so I have not turned it...

what route does the water take from the BIG cold water tank in the loft and the hot tap? does anyone have a diagram?

have got to go out now. I will see if B&Q have another thermastat to replace this on but also have to do some other stuff so will not be back till later this evening I will reply to any messages then. Thanks again

hi oilman - yes the flow from the cold tap in the bath and in the bathroom sink is very good... I would go as far as to say the flow is very strong. Maybe relevant information: Just to cover all cold water flow I can think off, the toilet cistern seems to fill up pretty quickly as well...

Competant, that will be me then :shock: LOL OK, will see if I can get it (thermastat) out and be off to B&Q Is it easy to remove then? before I go tinkering... any instructions I can use would be appreciated Slow flow... I have just done it the washing machine hose way twice at 5 secs...
