Is that used as a DPM then it was on top of the asphalt and then glued to the top tile

Thanks. Tiles are all up I am guessing it’s ashhalt for the sub some of it chipped away looks black all the way through so it wouldn’t be concrete with painted bitumen. What’s odd is the blue material under the tiles. The floor ship said this might have been a DPM but not sure why it’s there as...

I have taken up tiles in the kitchen and some lino. Half the floor was tiles half was lino. Under is what appears to look like black tiles. However they are not tiles. I have read this could be asphalt, bitumen paint or bitumen for sticking down old marley tiles. I am leaning toward it was used...

How? If I undo the feed water will go everywhere

Probably or the tapes the wrong way round. It’s a virtical rad and to get that fitting out I would have to take off both thermostats I just can’t be arsed it’s caused me that much hassle.

Fair play I’ll leave it for now I have a feeling the threads are broken inside the rad which I guess is a new rad. Just spent a week and three complete drain downs to get this rad on and some heat in the house. It’s not coming off

No don’t do it or nooooo it won’t block it I’m kind of thinking leave it the risk is too high. There no pressure drop and the drops are that small there’s no flooding risk
