    I'm sure this has been answered before but I'm having difficulty narrowing down my question. Bought a "bar" style light for the kitchen. Removed the existing rose but the three wires are not long enough for me to make the connection into the screw connection block which for some reason is...

    Photo of ours: Firstly the shower head is very slightly dripping all night. Somewhat annoying. Secondly since our plumber released the air in the hot water tank and said we might get hotter water the shower has in fact really been steaming hot. We need to add much more cold now. It...

    Bristan parts identification (photo attached)

    So to me it's a shower head. And it's now leaking at the joint with the hose. But there's a few of these available from Bristan and I've no idea what we have nor which particular parts I'd be needing. You can see the problem - pretty obvious. I've found a site called showerdoc but their...
