Thanks for the reply. I'm clutching at straws a little bit looking for the cheapest option. The brushes are still 15mm but the machine doesn't seem to want to go onto full spin, although the actual fault light is saying "Check Inlet" and the initial problem that has happened 3 times in the last...

To indicate that my brushes need replacing on my Miele Premium 500 (W504)? Cheers, Stu.

Now the plot thickens? Stripped down the washer and removed the water from the bottom sump bit. Thought that the leak was coming from the back of the detergent tray so I removed it and cleaned it. there is a small rubber gasket at the back that was quite gunked up. now that I have put it back...

Hi can someone help please? The two red lights "Check drain" "Check Inlet" keep coming on after about 2 weeks worth of washing. This is the leak detection wit a sort of float switch in a small sump in the bottom of the washer. When I strip it down there is water in this sump but I can't see...

Thanks for the reply Chris. I have attached a photo of the head that I am going to use. The tap is more of a spout really it has a flexi hose with it that only looks like 15mm but it will be about 2m of pipe from the diverter to the spout.

Hi, what is the best way to level/square up an old wall frame? I have removed the lath and plaster from 2 walls and plan to replace it with Marmox backer board, however the existing timbers are not very flat across the width of the wall. I plan to screw cls to the sides of these but was...

I am going to use a Stuart Turner Monsoon S2 twin to supply a Crosswater WLPB1500RC thermostatic mixer diverter to supply a shower and bath. I know that I have to run 22mm pipes to the pump but do I need to run 22 up to the mixer and do I have to run 22 from the mixer to the shower head and bath...

Hi Youth, thanks for the reply. Typical, there is a stop tap where the pipe enters the garage at floor level but it is stuck. I too thought that the pipe might have expanded so I did cut it back further up the pipe again but with the same result. I have tried to fit the fittings that I have to...

Thanks for the quick replys. I'm not on a water meter so it won't be costing me a fortune. Left the nearby tap dripping to stop a reoccurance. I have some Yorkshire fittings and some random compression fittings but the olives don't fit and the pipe is too big to go into the yorkshire fittings. I...

Help :evil: I have a burst water pipe in the garage, nipped to the builders merchants for some push fit end stops (couldn't find my emergency spares) sawed the pipe off at the split only to find that it is imperial and the push fits, won't fit :oops: . Result very flooded garage lots of...

I have just had an extension built and am renovating the now middle room, I have sanded back the floorboards which I think are pitch pine. The house is quite old and was built in the 30's. I am unsure how to finish, I was going to cover with Teak oil or possibly Tung oil but have read that this...

Anyone got any more info, don't seem to be able to find much on the net. Might be looking for the wrong thing.

Hi, thanks for the input george. The present system is a gravity fed boiler with a pump and a 3 way valve. Is it just a case of if the supply pressure is ok installing the new tank to the existing pipework?

Thanks George, that's what he is talking about. Could you tell me the answers to my original questions? I was getting quite convinced of the benefits however I was a bit unsure of the costs involved.

Anyone got any more info?

Found this on the net, must be what he is talking about.

Yep thats it, vented thermal store. Cold mains water going through the coil instead of the boiler water.

Ahh, that could me? mains pressure vented cylinder is probably more like what he said.
