    Cooker lid safety feature not working

    I have just been to install a stoves 550 mini and the gas does not shut off to the burners when you put the lid down. I'm wondering that if it has a cast Iron lid does it require one. I thought that every hob with a lid has to have a cooker lid shut off device. I have disconnected it as If an...

    no hot water in ensuite shower but everywhere else

    Its worth a try.. Its more than likely a faulty mixer. But you also have to eliminate the probability of an air lock.

    no hot water in ensuite shower but everywhere else

    cover the hole on the mixer bar where the shower normally connects to with your hand. Turn the shower on half way between hot and cold. The water from the cold mains will push any air locks out the way in the hot pipework. Don't do it for too long as your header tank will overflow. Caution you...

    Taps have very low pressure-advice please

    If your connections reduce down to a smaller pipe bore at the sink taps. This will reduce the pressure.. Any service valves should be 15mm full bore on gravity systems.

    Combining S Plan and Y plan on same heating system

    Make your 22mm connection before the mid position valve but after the bypass. You will only need one two port valve. It will work.. you don't have to have a bypass when you have got a mid position valve. But you have to have one if its an s-plan as when the 2 port valves close completely when...

    no hot water in ensuite shower but everywhere else

    How much higher than the shower Head is the cold water storage tank that feeds the hot water cylinder? Does any hot water come out when you hold the shower head as low as it will stretch? Take the shower head off put your hand over the pipe and turn the mixer to the middle to force cold...

    Make sure you turn the heating off when switching radiators as with all radiator switched off at once the boiler will over heat..
