Just noticed that all my radiators are staying on even when the thermostat is turned down and even when the timer has shut down the CH and Hot Water at night. I imagine a valve has failed has open ? I'm covered by British Gas 3 Star but just wondering if it's an easy job. Will call them...

Can't answer that one as I've never fitted one. Might feel a bit 'spongy' when you stand on it but might be easier to fit the drain ?

Thanks for that. I might get a tin and try it out on the bedroom I'm about to start. Thanks again.

Saw a tin of white gloss paint in B & Q which was 'Non Yellowing'. Also said on the tin that brushes could be cleaned by washing in water. Anyone ever used it? Is it any good? Thanks

I bought one of these first, trouble was the compression fitting would not retract back into the wall far enough to uncover the olive and hence couldn't get this tool onto the old olive. Total of about £40 to remove two olives ! Still I've got one more shower to do....so that works out at...

...olive puller arrived, old olives removed in a couple of minutes. This tool is well worth buying if you need to get olives off from difficult places ...very quick and easy to use.

Have a look at this website. Gives you some useful pictures to compare your broken bit with. http://www.lunns.net/index.htm (Cistern Spares from the index page) Cheers Doug

can't get a hacksaw anywhere near it :( Cheers

thanks for that....just ordered one on the internet. (The olive puller) Cheers

Many thanks. Might risk a £20 investment Cheers

....that was a quick reply !! Now the mystery of the isolation valve is solved what about the olive puller? Many thanks

Has anyway bought and used the 'Olive Puller' made by Monument ? It's the one that screws onto the compression fitting. I have to remove the olives from the pipes that supply a shower...the pipes come out of the wall at the back of the mixer and I can't get a regular olive 'cutter' or a hacksaw...

Thanks for that. I'll hunt around for the user instructions and check it out.
