    At my wits end with this heating system PLEASE HELP!

    If your new to soldering, watch some video's on how to do it first. Get yourself a decent blowlamp, (Rothenberger aren't cheap but they are good!), and take your time. Again, Yorkshire fittings are more expensive, but are almost guaranteed not to leak provided care has been taken soldering...

    Bristan Orta basin taps. Advice/Help.

    Did you use a 17mm spanner? Try using boiled water on the valves and wait for it to cool down? Tightening underneath would be a box spanner - rothenberger or monument and not expensive

    No, that is for pressure testing. Something like this https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/rothenberger-135-solar-heating-pump-centrifuga/ or https://www.tedbartinkerhire.co.uk/tool-hire.php?tool-hire=rems-solar-push

    ...share battery technology and battery fittings and are part of CAS (the Cordless Alliance System) which also includes Eibenstock, Starmix, Steinel, Rothenberger, etc. Sounds good, but unfortunately not as broad a range as I'd like. Hopefully other (competing) manufacturers will join I due course

    Stiff Copper end feeds

    wondering whether a pipe cutter (am using a rothenberg) might but a bulge in the pipe next to the cut, I am sure there are no burrs on the outside of the pipe. I have Lawton and Wednesbury Pipe, 'Primaflow' and Screwfix Flomasta fittings.

    Can’t remove a very old kitchen tap

    Sorry for jumping in on an old thread... I've just spent a couple of hours working free a backnut from a kitchen tap using Rothenberger tap spanners, 10" locking pliers, loads of WD40, and a lot of force. It was painful enough that I decided to replace the screw thread of the new tap fixing kit...

    Thoughts on how to tighten kitchen tap

    You can simply buy a set of long reach monobloc sockets. Rothenberger is one brand. Any good plumber has them. Only a few pounds. Basically box spanners

    Can't undo bath tap compression nut

    Bath taps can be awkward bar stewards which is why tools such as Rothenberger Telescopic Basin Wrench 32mm (71701) are made. The Armeg Jaw-Dropper is excellent, but a bit expensive for one-off use.
