Van packed up on way home yesterday. Noticed oil light on (may have been on for a few days and obscured by a torch I keep there). Oil drips were on customers drive and I thought it was the builder's clapped out tipper! It went into limp mode and was wheezing... Loss of compression? Couldn't...

Several hundred metres of slinkies. GSHP pipework, buried under ground and river. Full of stale glycol and water. Need to get it out and refilled with new mix. Approx 500litres. Have arranged for 1000litre IBC to flush it into with power flusher so that it has capacity to take more than...

@DIYnot Have mentioned this a couple of times in my other posts. All of the post editing tools (including emojis) are 'greyed out' on my android phone. All OK when on windows laptop. Can you fix? Cheers D

Need a new one of these. EBay has used ones. And can see listings for repairs. HW relay is stuck open. Constant demand. Think it's 3rd gen. Any links for new or has anyone had a repaired one? Cheers, D

Went to one yesterday. Start/stop and boost lights constantly glowing blue on arrival but no water flow. Pushing buttons caused noise from processor above in loft but no flow. Removed shower head and tried again no joy. Went into loft and removed and cleaned filters. There was an...

Hope you have a good one.

Anyone know of a fitting that can go between 2 circulation pump valves, in place of the pump? Need to remove the pump but it may have to go back in at a later date. It's on 28mm and between 2 fixed points so would be much easier if I could slide something with flanges in and couple up to the...

Have a customer who builds garden rooms for clients. First one I went to, they had already done most of the plumbing install themselves. Waste run to drain and macerator installed to supply wc, basin and shower. Ended up with shower waste being level (if not slightly lower) than inlet to...

Model number: SMS40A08GB/25 Everything points to the heat pump. Trying to find a site that offers a refurb one is impossible to tell if the part numbers match and a new one just isn't economical for its age. Do repair engineers (if they're on here) have a go to marketplace for such spares...

Rear step on van, Bulkhead and cover plate. Lots of rust and half clinging coating. Best way to paint subframe and plate? Just want to protect subframe, rather than looks. Direct to rust paint? Cheers

As per title, Brass stem on inlet has pushfit connection at top to take hose. It connects to pump and holds the filter. This is leaking and spares obsolete so just wondering if anyone has a donor unit in their shed? Plumbers mainly but if you have one that would be great. This unit...

Years ago, master builder neighbour (RIP) built another skin against my wall, on his side and soldiered across the top. Before he passed, he admitted he should have done it better. In the past I tried rendering it and this all blew, painted it and this peeled off as can be seen. Bricks are...

Granted it's an old unit that someone gave me second hand. But things are tight right now and I am wondering if it's worth trying to diagnose and repair. Any pointers as to fault finding before opening her up and getting a multimeter to it? It doesn't trip immediately on power on but when...

Have had this once before but was hidden when re-siliconed! Cutting old silicone out and handle of knife against the tile has left a thin black scuff mark along the length of the screen profile! Didn't even apply a lot of pressure and the part that made the mark was plastic! Is it a scratch...

Is there a way to energise the economy 7 supply during peak hours with this meter? The 5th terminal? Looked up that it can be done on the liberty 110 by pressing 2 and then A! Didn't work on this one. Just replaced 2 immersion stats on a direct cylinder and wanted to check them both as...

Have read a couple of similar posts but wondered if I could get more advice before tackling removing the fascia for access! Range is about 10 years old. Recently, right electric oven trips mcb when the control knob is turned to on... Does it instantly! Can see a small flash behind the knob...

It's been cemented in and I know it's the type you can easily replace the rubber. But someone has disposed of the old pan and it must have still had the rubber and top cap on the spigot! So, instead of having to smash out the old body, I want to try and get a replacement and use just the bits...

Does anyone use/have one of these? From April 24 will need to submit receipts digitally and I'd like to start now. Also helps avoid losing and having to trawl through coffee stained and feint bits of paper without missing owt! Hoping there's a standalone app that doesn't tie you in with a...
