    My open flow rate is 38 litres per minute.

    I've ordered a Rothenberger 3/4 BSP pressure gauge with a nice rubber boot round the business end and a WRAS approved braided hose. Bought courtesy of a plumbing shop on Ebay (Stuart Plumbing and Heating in Hinckley). I've always thought Rothenberg had a decent name so feel confident, and it...

    Vaillant EcoTec 831 Diverter Valve - Can’t replace it?

    Thanks for the reply and advice. Got to be a long reach pilot bit though. Do you know what thickness you use as I have drilled out the threads before trying to drill the screw heads off! Again, 5hanks for the reply and advice

    Vaillant EcoTec 831 Diverter Valve - Can’t replace it?

    A standard pilot bit. I use rothenberger long reach pz2 but Halfords pz2 is a nice driver too. Get one you can use in conjunction with a set of grips. I get my bits from work, so just ordinary pz2 bits and a long extension bit holder.

    Rothenberger Super-Fire 2 Soldering & Brazing Torch with Map-X: Why is it a flamethrower?

    Hey everyone. I'm using a Rothenberger Super-Fire 2 Soldering & Brazing Torch with Map-X and no matter what I do, I end up with a flamethrower rather than a very fine blue tipped flame. It's really frustrating. Has anyone else had this problem and been able to sort it out? Currently what...

    Hidden pipe radiator.

    Same- it has been the last thing I have tackled and the one thing I kept putting off and calling in plumbers. I bought myself a rothenberger superfire 2 and have been using yorkshire fittings, and the whole experience has been quite liberating it has to be said.

    Mixer tap - unable to access

    This is what my tenant sent me. Looks like just a normal screwdriver needed. (Don't know why it's not properly screwed in unless he did that himself to make it clearer)

    What is this used for please?

    I've got one but I am trying to bend some pipe in a small space and the one I have is to big. I actually also bought a Rothenberger ratchet one only to be told afterwards that it's not designed for hard copper pipe just multi layer pipe and soft refrigeration copper.

    Radiator Tail Thread Sticking out?

    ...is not a problem, usually it's the other way round, the thread disappears and it still ain't tight, so you need more ptfe! ;) I assume you have a proper rad spanner to tighten the tail in without using grips(y) https://www.diy.com/departments/rothenberger-radiator-open-end-spanner/190708_BQ.prd

    Pipe soldering - what went wrong?

    We use a Rothenberger at work with Yellow Map gas. Bought the same kit for home (Torch + 2 cylinders in a case) , I would say it's a bargain for what you get!.

    Pipe soldering - what went wrong?

    You need a better torch head. Mine always did this. Bought a rothenberger and yellow map gas canister... would never go back... Expensive though.
