Yes you are right 3 & 4 linked together - doesn’t seem to be a separate connection for L/N though?

Ok. Thanks a lot

Inherited an old boiler with apparently not any real controls (thermostat), it’s a Vallant Turbomax Plus 824E. I know this is old, but can a thermostat be connected to this? If so what model would work? I don’t need all singing, but I do need to have some controls rather than the cold-hot dial...

Thank you. I’ve just come back to this thread as I can’t get a local plumber for love nor money to sort this (at least not before the New Year) however, one helpful chap mentioned that if I thought I was able, then maybe cut the pipe and fit a Philmac fitting. So I came back here to ask about...

Thank you guys - I can go to that tee. I don’t need that “alkathene” pipe at all so that can go, and everything to the right, so I can either leave the tee in place or get rid of that too. Just don’t know how “tough” it will be to unscrew the thing.

So, ideally, I’d like to cut the pipe where the tape measure is and then go to 22 or 15 copper. But would you need to tape a thread or is there a push fit option? Or is there a compression option?

This pipe is leaking. I’d like to get the rusted and leaking part replaced. Can anyone tell me what this pipe is, and how I could feed into 22mm or 15mm copper pipe please? Thank you

Ooh - ok. Is that because the 22mm ply isn’t flooring grade?

Brilliant. Thanks so much.

Softwood CDX 24mm ply?

Really sorry - loads of previous ply questions, but I can’t see an answer. I have joists 40cm apart, I want to lay ply, and am looking at 22-25mm ply, and then sealing and laying stick down planks, but: - softwood ply? - hardwood ply? - marine ply? - structural ply? Is any thick (22mm-25mm)...

Between 3mm-5mm long, shiny, silvery and wriggles pretty fast.

Between ply and floor or boards.

Not there now, but I reckon cover plate in the pavement us about 15cm diameter!

Thanks. So a bit confused - I can only think it is this thing that feeds the building, but is it likely that this thing would do that. All the tool refers to hydrant and OP referred to hydrant?? Does anyone know whether this sort of thing has fed a building before?

I reckon - nothing else isolates supply.

Hi guys - I have one of those long rods with the curved hit which is useful to turn off a stop-clock outside the premises, but I’ve just come across one which is a 30mm square and would need a different tool - can someone tell me what tool I need and or give me a link to buy? Thank you

Thank you guys.

Ok - that’s interesting. It’s a lifting station to pump water upwards about 3m - I put in a 3A fuse as I saw 640w as the power rating. It starts by water reaching a certain level inside - and looks like there’s a capacitor (haven’t opened it up), but looking at the parts on-line. It’s been...
