Mix some concrete in as well. 6/1 will be fine.

Cheers guys. Think I’ll pick up the ERBAUER one. My local merchants wanted £76 for an unbranded one!! I’ve not many cuts to do tbh as I’ve been laying mostly porcelain with a 4” grinder. Get these blades if you do. Absolutely awesome imo...

Hi all Not purchased a 9” disc for years and I used to use Marcrist (or similar) back then. What is a decent diamond disc I can purchase now online/or Builders supplies. Cheers.

They also do one with a 25 year warranty. Not sure if that’s long enough though ? https://www.plumbingworld.co.uk/trojan-solarna-1700mm-x-700mm-5mm-single-ended-plain-bath

I meant standard size not bath quality. I’ve messaged a mate who does a lot of bathrooms and he has been fitting these for years with zero problems. It’s 6mm compared to the 5mm Selco...

No way am I paying that for a standard 1700 acrylic bath!!!!

Discontinued and the one review it had was rubbish. Also I’m not looking for a pop up waste. Just a standard manual plug as there’s less to go wrong. These seem to have a good review elsewhere...

What make/model. Should there be a spacer between ’knob’ and main unit? Screw should tighten fully without interference with the control knob. Does tightening it fully affect operation of the knob?

Hi All I’m looking to renew a plastic/fibreglass standard bath 1700x700. I’m noticing a LOT of new ones are of poor quality, some you can even see through them!! I’ve seen a good reviews of the Selco Norton bath at 5mm thick. They sell a complete suite with it and it’s good reviews...

Hi all Replacing some tiles after a basic like for like refit. Basin/toilet and soon to be bath. I have 600 x 300mm tiles and need to cut several 50mm lengths due to bath being under window. It currently has a pice of plastic makeup roughly siliconed in the gap. Is it possible to cut...

I ended up replacing it all even the 40mm that is out of sight. I chipped around where it exits and it was PVC solvent pipe all the way to the basin. The solvent weld pipe was nice and tight going into the Osma seals which were not perished. I did have to coke the edge to make a ‘point’ to...

Do everything would hopefully stay in place except for the the old poly pipe? I like the idea of carefully inserting new 32mm SW into it and silicone. I can see the collar staying in place tbh just where it inserts has a very worn seal. Why do they still sell these? It’s an awful design imo...

Hi All I’m looking to replace all this worn/leaking 32mm waste to Solvent Weld including the part going through the wall cavity as it it SW inside going to a basin waste. I’m thinking the strap boss rubber has also perished but the wrap and this type of boss insert with small rubber seal will...

I disagree. The gas valve is controlled by the PCB/probably a 12v or 24v output to a solenoid. Not difficult and as a spark to test and I’m more than competent to test it. It’s a very simple boiler with very little required to function. The pilot is lit without it even powered. I think if you...

What is this simple fault? I’ve ordered new fan. I fitted this boiler around 1997/98 ish. Thanks.

I have another update. I noticed a slight squeaking noise from the fan. Presume it’s a bearing. I switched it off at mains and back on the the fan is not starting yet has 90v at idle. I did get it to run though after giving it a ‘glum’ and it also ran at full speed/230v when demand was called...

This is the model -https://www.freeboilermanuals.com/assets/pdf/ferroli/Optima_701_Manual.pdf

Hi All Just came home and noticed had no HW or CH on my Ferroli 701. Gas pilot is lit Pressure is ok. PRV is not passing. EV has 1.2 Bar and is not releasing water from the shrader valve (so balloon ok) Fan is spinning at low speed (90v) and speeds up to full speed (230v) when called via HW...

I have and came up with what u linked. It dies not mention the slider i posted about.

I just checked and mine is numbered on the slider. Looks like a Chinese copy one. Odd thing is 5 is at the top and 1 at the bottom. Lol But it looks like slide down bottom/1 for full flush. Cheers guys.
