Thanks for the replies! That's made me feel a little better/safer. There are 4 buttons: "Hot" - Slightly Warm! "Medium" - Completely useless all year round! Cold Off It's the "Hot" button that's broken, it worked fine this morning but nothing happens when I press it now...

One of the buttons on my electric shower has stopped working. The other 2 work fine and turn the shower On & Off no problem. I've taken the front cover off just to have a quick look to see if the button was just misaligned or something but that's unfortunately not the case. I'll have to get...

I need some advice on how to tackle my kitchen floor, it's currently a mismatch of different materials and I just wanted to know how a "Pro" would approach it. It's a "L" shape room with Asphalt in the corner, Concrete at the top (with what looks to be an old drain), and to the right a very...

I've been looking at getting something like this installed. http://www.buycentralheating.com/worcester-boiler.asp?id=1454 From what I can see its not any type of storage boiler so the high flow rate will not run out? I'm not on a meter fortunately. I've not decided exactly which shower...

Thanks for the replies, what's the ideal flow rate for an 8" shower head?

Hi, I've been looking around and found some really interesting shower heads. The ones I've been looking at are between 12" and 16"! http://www.taps4less.com/PP/U-A306.html http://www.taps4less.com/PP/HI-SHOWERS37.html http://www.taps4less.com/PP/HI-SHOWERS35.html Has anyone here...

Thanks for the help on that one, all sorted now!!! Works brilliant! There's another thing bothering me now, if I wanted to tee into a waste pipe that's set at a 2.5 degree slope, how do I do it? If I use a 90 degree tee, the vertical pipe will not be straight. Does anyone have a link to...

Thanks for the fast reply! I've try everything like that, numerous kettles, bleach, cillit bang, plunging, even those gas canisters! (that was fun!) I've looked into HepvO traps, is that a similar type? They seem to be a little expensive, and it maybe a little difficult to fit under...

Hi, I want to solve a very loud gurgling problem that occurs when my Kitchen sink drains. I think the best solution would be an Air Admittance Valve (AAV), but from what I've read, they have to be above the flood level of the highest appliance on the system? Lowest to Highest, the waste...

I've had a bit of a re-think, how about a system that requires 18l/m. Above it says that I'd get around 12-15l/m from a combi, so together with the cold water, would I have enough flow to supply this new design. Cheers.

Thanks, this is the kind of information I'm looking for. I do my best to search but I can't seem to find anything useful... Apologies if I'm being overly optimistic but I, unfortunately, always use the shower when demand is at it's peak. So I'm really looking for top performance. I...

Thanks for the quick reply!! Sorry to be a pain, but does anyone know of any websites with the required pump type listed. I've done a few Google searches but I've no idea if I'm looking a the right thing. Thanks again!

I've attached a crude drawing to give an idea as to what I'd like to acomplish.

I want to upgrade my shower to a Thermostatic Valve, high preasure 14in shower head and body jets. I've had a manual mixer in the past and it had very poor performance, especially in the morning and in the winter. Low preasure and extreemly low flow rate. So i currently have a 9.5kw...

Thanks, So does that mean that an electritian should have no problems with carring out what i've suggested above?

I've been planning to update my kitchen for some time now and I’ve hit a hurdle when it comes to the electrics. Currently, they're a complete mess; I could have done better when I was 10 years old. I've been lurking around the forum for a while searching for various things and seem to get...
