Hi, does anyone have any experience of these? I've proposed them in our loft conversion but to date haven't found a single builder who's heard of them let alone installed. Velux have nowhere to go and view them so my only reference point is their marketing material. They look amazing but nervous...

Hi - it can't be the mains water. When we disconnect the dishwasher (ie turn the blue lever), the water is fine.

The plumber did solder the pipework. If the soldering flux goes away with time then this is not the problem. We had the kitchen fitted and dishwasher installed 2 months ago. The taste would have gone by now. We are only getting around to addressing this now as we've been busy with other...

Hi, I'll have to check if there's a screw on the valve when i get home. However, I do trust my plumber. He said he fitted a double check valve so I have no reason not to believe him. He's fairly insistant that it's a fault with the dishwasher although as I've previously mentioned...

my plumber was here just this morning and left me a message to say that he fitted a double check valve. what difference would it make?

The taps are new, the dishwasher is new and as far as I know al the pipework is new. The first picture shows a close up of the copper pipe (I don't know if any soldering was involved). The second pic shows a close up of the 'black pipe' you saw through the hole. This is connected to the...

Photos attached, let me if you want photos from any other angle. Really appreciating any help! Thanks :)

It just tastes disgusting - as though it's the waste water from the dishwasher.

Hi Andy - double
