    2 problems

    Problem 1. Last week the hws to the kitchen sink went from normal pressure & flowrate to a meagre dribble that eventually went to nothing. The problem got left for a day & it kinda resolved itself. However, today it has happened again. I disconnected the mixer tap from the feeds and checked...

    Cold Rad Hot Pipes!

    The Rad in my bathroom has not been working for some time now & the nagging I've had off the Mrs has become unbearable. I've changed the TRV & the LSV & I'm still having the same problem. The Rad is stone cold but the pipework on the flow is hot up to about a 12" from the valve then the temp...

    Radiator Problem

    I've had a problem in my Daughters bedroom with a Rad. Tried the tapping of TRV which seemed to sort it out. However, the rad in the bathroom has now gone stone cold. Not just the rad but at least 1.5 feet of pipework. It seems that these 2 rads are working in tandem to drive me mental!. The...
