Thanks Picasso , the system can't be older than about 6 years , we moved in about 5 months ago and it's nothing like the old system we had in our previous house. I'll call someone tommoz Is that the wrong tank for the system ? What's a guesstimate on getting it sorted ?

Thanks guys , I'll call someone in the morning ... Anything I should do in the meantime ? I'm assuming it can wait until someone can get round ... Or no? Only one flexi pipe connecting the red tank to a group ... Extra pic. The flexi is the 2nd pipe from the back with the bend on it.

Can anyone tell me if this pipe is supposed to be weeping constantly? It comes from the water tank and exits in the garden at the back of the house. It has quite a steady flow on it, but more than a drip. You can see it exit the water tank in pic 1 We have an underfloor heating system, not in...

I have an ISAR HE24 boiler that has been throwing up a H3 error randomly over the past week or so , the error seems to disappear by itself , resetting or turning off and on does nothing. It just comes back to life. so sporadically we are without hot water until it decides to work. can be minutes...

Hi , I have an odd problem with my Combi boiler and after reading the FAQ I think it may be a valve problem of some sort ? The boiler is an iSAR made by Ideal , either a HE24 - HE30 or HE35 , prolly a HE24 as it was originally fitted by the local council. My hot water works fine , the...

I'm just doing my bathroom myself , about halfway through. My new suite , bath , sink , wall hung wc with cistern and shower door for the shower bath cost just about a £1000 , i've probably spent at least another £400 on piping, fittings , bit's and bobs etc. This doesn't include the shower...

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone on these forums. I've just finished fiiting my new bath and wall hung wc and without the help of people here it wouldn't have been so easy. Never done it before. I've still got the shower and sink to go , but it's all looking good. Thanks to...

What choices do i have when choosing a new shower with a combi boiler ? Can i have a power shower ? Currently we have an electric shower over the bath , just got a P shaped bath and wondered if i could get anything else.

Wall hung combi..... "Ideal ISAR" ? whatever that is ...were on the second one already :lol: Push fit :lol: that's what i'm using ...good stuff , so far :shock: I think the large old pipe was in place as i have just deleted the tank in the loft , it's been there since our old...

yep , it's from the combi downstairs from the kitchen below , it is a 15mm off the mains and 15mm for the hot water. A section of it was lead before , hidden behind a wall cupboard , so had to get rid of that and replaced it with 15 mm pipe up to bathroom. It goes from entering the bathroom...

Just about to start fitting the new bath on my bathroom re-fit. The old bath had large lead pipes for the cold supply , they've been removed now. Should i replace the hot and cold feed to the new bath taps with 22mm pipe ? and reduce back to connect the taps? I'll be T'ing of a 15mm...

I'm alright ... I signed a Waiver and my wife absolved me of any liability of the 1896 grinding wheel regs :) :) Anyway .....She made me do it ..... she was fed up of going to the loo in our shed in a bucket ..... :shock: :? :lol: Wall hung bogs ....nightmare , dont want do another...

SUCCESS !! :lol: :lol: 4" Grinder did the job nicely in the end (had to take the guard off) Cheers guys

LOL :) let me re-phrase that ..... "I'll find out if the s**t hits the reciprocating blade on saturday" ;)

:) I realy hope so !! I'll find out if the s**t hits the fan on saturday ;) :)

Cheers Chris , just popped out and bought a reciprocating saw ready for the job on saturday , a useful tool anyway so it's all good. I'm sure there will be tons of curseing , swearing and foot stomping :) , but i'll get the job done ! I'll post back and let you all know Thanks for all...

Thats excellent chris , now i can see what it's all about. I think i'll cut that off as it will give me more options for fittings , i'm wondering if a flexi will do the job ?

Great stuff , thanks I might take the elbow grease route , i've got 2 grinders 4" and 9" but it's close to the wall , so might not get in nicley I'll go and measure the offset and post later.. cheers !

Thanks ChrisR , Is that socket joining the 2 pipe sections then ? and if i remove it will it give me some more room ? Replacing the whole stack might not be so easy on my house. That soil pipe dissappears into a roof area on 1930's small kitchen extension , the kitchen below sticks out...

Hi At the weekend i'm suppose to be fitting a wall hung toilet to replace the old one. I think i may have a huge problem with the existing soil pipe in the bathroom. Once i fit the wall hung and cistern the existing soil pipe projects really far out and i don't think i will be able to buy...
