It doesn`t mention anything in manufacturers about having to pipe up flow & return in 22mm, i don`t know if it has pump ovverun, What`s an ABV?

If you poke about up the cold feed and succeed in unblocking it where do you think all the water is going to go from your f&e tank? all over you & the upstairs probably. I would say leave all connected, poke around the cold outlet in your tank after fitting a hose to a drainoff on one of...

no one type till i have a go!! You can either fit a tee on each leg before the pipes hit the tees or you can fit an extra tee as close to the existing tees as poss, point the tees upwards pop in a short piece of 15mm pipe then solder your vents to the top of these, thus making this part...

Well, I`m not the sharpest tool in the box but I`m keen & getting on quite well, we may have got off on the wrong foot but be prepared for lots of questions in the future, Thanks

Thank you DP & all the boys on here with manners.

Not really as other members like Chris & Dave have had the good manners to educate me, the only pointless part of this post appears to be this contribution from yourself. Don`t answer any questions from myself if they are going to upset you so.

Aren`t I allowed because I`m a girl? Would you ask that question if my name was Hairy assed Bob? How does he bleed his towel radiator please?

Sorry,i entered my reply before seeing yours, i was only offering an opinion, there`s no need to get upset. How do you bleed the towel rail? Im asking to learn not to be smart. Thanks.

Brilliant, thanks gas4you. Thanks, Chrishutt

it`s already been fitted.

if you ever drain the radiator and refill it, how will you get the air out, the bleed will be at the bottom, i don`t think it would work.

I`m getting it now i think (sorry) that`s where the heat loss calulation thingy comes in, where can i see one of these please, anyone know?

Ah haaa, thanks Chris so rule of thumb is 24kw or more for water then tot up kilowatts for rads and add them on for total boiler size? Why do most plumbers install lengths and lengths of 22mm pipe then in modest houses?

thanks, could you explain alittle further? because at first i was advised it depended on the total wattage of all rads by first poster, (D.hailsham, thanks) it`s left me a little confused.

i have but i`m obviously not getting it, so a combi boiler`s total size in kilowatts has nothing to do with the radiators?

not that clever to be honest, i know it has things to do with u values & north facing windows etc, will this give me the correct pipe size from boiler? thanks
