Hi There, So we are having this fixing frame installed, and it seems to be missing an o-ring as per the picture. The White Pipe is the verticle Flush Pipe (18 in the diagram), the external diameter of that is 2 inches. The horizontal flush pipe sits inside that (5 in the diagram). The groove...

Hey, So I have this kind of Tower Rad installed: https://victoriaplum.com/product/the-heating-co-santa-fe-traditional-radiator-952-x-659 As per the pictures attached it doesn't use the standard 1/2” BSP valve size, what is it using? I am guessing it is a 1/4? Cheers

I'm going through the install guide for this Victoria Plumb glass shower screen and I don't quite understand what it means in the attached picture. 0~15mm gap, does it mean the screen should not butt up right into the mounting frame and there should be 0~15mm gap? The reason I ask this is that...

Hey Everyone, I have been researching this and I am a bit confused on how to terminate the macerator waste, into a normal plastic soil stack I have in my loft. I fully understand that the waste has to be solvent weld because of the pressure, so how do I terminate it correctly to the plastic...

Hey Everyone, So I am doing an ensuite in my house. The walls have bonding (old) and have been skimmed (6 months ago). Looking back that probably wasn't the best way to go. My original plan was to use No More Ply, screw wooden battens into the wall for the shower area and screw the No more...

Hey Everyone, So I have been reading these forums for a while as I am renovating a house. We are putting in an ensuite, and because the waste pipe is at the back of the house and the ensuite is at the front of the house, we have decided to get a macerator. I've done a bunch of reading but I...

Hi! So I have just moved into a new house and it has the above boiler fitted and I am trying to understand it as best as possible. The control is set to water and central heating, Normally there is a temperature control for the central heating and then one for the water, but this is combined...
