I’ve done some testing with a hose and the drip edges are working, however I think the front edge over hang is too shallow hence why it’s dripping on the wall. To confirm this i’ve bonded a L shaped strip to the leading edge of the copeing to divert the run off away. I think as others have...

Hi All Looking for some advice. We had a single story extension designed and built 8 years ago. Since it’s construction we have had issues with water running off the parapet walls down the face of the wall. This happens on both sides. The initial builder did some remedy work initially but...

So it’s all fixed. The hidden zone valve had a faulty motor, so once i changed that and learned from your helpful advice that the honeywell valve doesn’t move like the drayton it’s all back and running. Thanks for all your help

Ah - i thought they behaved like the Drayton ones. what you said is correct. Not energised it has a bit of resistance, power no resistance. I run it and see if it works. Just assumed it wasn’t. Steve

Ok so it seems as if the installers just piggy backed the hidden valve and the new valve together. The hidden valve didn't move when called for heat. So I went out and got a replacement motor and swapped it over. I can see the motor and springs now turning, however the switch bar (auto - manual)...

Thanks both for your reply. As far as i’m aware the downstairs two are connected to upstairs. This historically evident as when the upstairs is on the downstairs two come on. I’m having difficulty tracking a cold spot as the pipes leading from the downstairs rad that then goes up to the airing...

Do you mean zone valves? if so yes one on the upstairs circuit the other downstairs.

Ive checked the flow of pipes from the garage to the airing cupboard and all solid copper pipes as these go straight up into the airing cupboard

Hi All Hope you might help at all. In short we have no heating upstairs, all rads are stone cold from the feed and return pipes of each rad up to the top of the rads - not even tepid. We have two heating circuits. one which is underfloor heating to the entire downstairs of the house. The other...

thanks for the reply. Its strange, the panel works fine, setting times, changing modes. It just wont work when you set it to auto. One thing I did notice was that when I first noticed a problem, I looked at the programmer panel and the clock said 11.30pm (it was 6:35am) Somehow its changed...
