Hi all Began fitting one of these today and noticed there is a slide position going from 1-5? I presume this is for the amount of water is flushed? How is this controlled? So your slide the position UP for increased flush or DOWN? There are no instructions and I can not find details? Thanks

The other half just does not want HW. So I’m happy. Lol. I found a video from another one which looks the same but from Victoria Plumb. It seems the CW inlet/fill has 15mm T/spur off it to connect the CW flexi too. The HW will then also need to be fully fitted but just capped off on the...

It’s a massive job to run a HW supply as the existing toilet is in an outhouse and HW is not required at all. Just seems a silly design tbh/way of doing it. Cheers.

Wow. That’s an odd design. I have messaged the seller for instructions. IF it is like that then I would need to split the CW feed. One for cistern fill and one to the CW of tap flexi. I presume the other HW flexi would also need to be fitted to prevent backflip from the CW one? I would...

So there are two inputs to the bottom of the cistern? Still does not make sense tbh???

Hi all Looking to replace my old toilet with a toilet/basin combo. I’ve fitted a few toilets and basins separately but never a combo? I’m looking at this combo pack as it comes with a monobloc tap but I’m baffled as to how the tap gets its feed as the tail/s must go into the cistern...

Hi All Got a 32mm waste from a basin that is leaking from only the centre part where it bends/dips. It leaves the wall in pushfit and down to a strap. I want to replace it with solvent weld if possible but I’m not sure what will fit from the bend outlet to the boss/strap. Can I pull the...

Sussed ur now. Seems 1700mm / 700mm is normal.

Thanks so much for replying!! I’ll do it in solid pipe I think then. I’ve also ordered the 3/4” flexi with isolation for the bath taps. I was just going to replace the old individual taps for a modern single one (they are 180mm spaced) as it would fit. But looking at the new toilet and...

Why can’t use flexi on bath? It would make it SO much easier to fit. Managed to rip out old toilet/basin/flooring today and fitted new. Flooring was the hardest part tbh! Toilet is in but basin is not. Do I just need to extend the 32mm waste with length of it and two couplers? If so I...

There is no means of isolation on the twin taps I have on the old taps so I need valves. I’m replacing the whole basin/pedestal and witching from twin old taps to a mono. I’m also doing the x2 bath taps and hopefully changing them to a modern twin single unit. I’ve been googling and I can...

I just found a standard 15mm isolation valve and the other end fits perfectly. So it looks like I just need to purchase flat faced ones. Screwfix don’t seem to stick them?

They look like the normal 1/2” open ended female with a rubber washer. I’m just really concerned that the only way to tighten the tails in the tap end is by twisting the flexible braided part. I’m afraid they will come loose over time or even when fitted. What a poor design!

Thanks. I’ll have 15mm copper pipe to connect to so looking to get some 15mm flat faced isolation valves to connect the other end. Is that correct?

Hi all Just had a monobloc tap delivered and all others I have fitted in the past have had the part where the tails join it exposed. One this tap they are recessed 2” into the tap! How am I supposed to tighten them adequately? I have no tool that fits in there to get to the nuts with one...

Hi all I’m looking on Lamplec website and they do not sell the full size/large RCBOs unless you purchase a populated board ? Are they phasing them out for the mini/standard size ones? Unsure on whether to purchase a populated board with the large type as if I need to add more circuits I would...

Hi all I’m planning on fitting done 50mm mopstick wooden handrail and the linked brackets on my staircase. My stair is approx 2.6m then has a small landing where it levels off before turning 90 degrees then again a smaller 2m stair. I’m planning on doing the first section in one piece if...

I was just confused as I presumed it has to be an EICR but it when I looked at sample forms/paperwork only NICEIC have them as a heading? NAPIT forms are different and just labelled ECR. You would think it would be standardised?

Hi all I need an Electrical Integrity Report for a rental property as it’s becoming mandatory in Wales. Does it matter who I use be it NICEIC or NAPPIT? I think both are qualified to perform them but only NICEIC do EICRs? NAPPIT name them something else I think?? Anyone confirm this a d...

That makes sense. Must be leftover from an older system then? What should the frost stat be set at as I presume this will override the built in frost protection of the boiler. Thanks
