Don't put anything heated around the bath trap. There's a chance it will evaporate the water seal and cause bad smells from the drain.

The water level in your toilet will probably be higher as the level is set by the hight of the outlet (unless it's siphonic) Water will always find it's own level and it really doesn't like running up hill. Raising it would be the best bet as seco said.

If you're gonna replace the lot, Get a torbeck valve. They're easy to fit and quite good.

I thought cornish pasties came from Greggs the bakers?? :shock:

Leave them alone and enter them into next years "Britains Got Talent". Imagine what you could buy with the million pound prize!

Without seeing what you want to do with it it's hard to make suggestions. You could try looping the hose, This will shorten its length but make sure you don't kink it.

I think leverage is the answer to your problem here. Check the link below. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leverage

It should work as they are both vodafone phones. It might be a good idea to take it to carphone warehouse and try B4 you buy. I put my phone in a baby's sock whilst at work, I'm about 8 months into a contract and the phone's still mint condition.

I knew small cars were gonna hold their price, What with fuel costs and new taxation classes but Blimey! :shock:

I have only used Stelrad and Delonghi which are very similar in design and quite a nice clean modern looking radiator. I do tend to go for the Delonghi more but thats because the coffee machine is free in the merchants that supply these, It's 20p in the one that stock Stelrad.

That's scary! Never heard of this before but imagine a mother drying off her young child at the point when this happened. I think you're kinda lucky it only damaged the rad and lino. I would be inclined to photograph the damage and send them along with a stern letter to the manufacturer...

No! you can't use denso tape. I've just checked and it's definitely porus.

I always test pipework & fittings at 2 bar for 10 minutes then 10 bar for 2 minutes. This is recommended by john guest (speedfit) to test their fittings but i use this procedure for everything, A little overkill i know but not as overkill as hep2o recommendations of 18 bar. Both...

Personally I prefer the ones with the guage so you can see what its doing and so can the customer. As for recomendations, You need one to do what you want it to do. If you buy one from a reliable seller such as a plumbers merchant local to you, they will probably advise you on what you need.

This can be normal depending on where you live in location to the supply as AMEdinburgh said. High pressures can sometimes play havoc with some showers, mixer taps, cistern fillers e.c.t although many are rated to a maximum of 10 bar. It may be worth your while fitting a pressure reducing...

No! Its about PTFE, Leave it here. It's quite interesting as well as heartwarming to see how these "Tradesmen" are bonding together like a band of brothers, Each offering a humble opinion in a quest to ease the suffering of a fellow tradesmans query.

Someone told me "Yellow Orca" But i've never seen a yellow Killer whale :shock:

Can i use PVC electrician's tape? I've had a really good look with a magnifying glass and it doesn't seem to be porus. Obviously i wouldn't use blue or red as this may be confused with the hot and cold water supply.

There's only one way to settle this... Fi i i i i i i i ight!

What do you mean " properly tightened"? Do you mean like, Properly tightened as in finger tight then a quater turn with a spanner? or, Proper tightened with a large adjustable and scaffold bar for leverage? :lol: I have been fitting some chrome towel rads on a development, Up to now i've...
