Hi The end bit of the mixer tap has just fell off. I'm struggling to get in back on correctly. Does the threaded bit go in first or the plastic bit? Is it knackered once it falls out?

Hi all Still having problems with scalding hot water. Have had thermostat on tank changed, 3 port valve changed. still no result and getting desperate. Does the boiler have a thermostat inside? Could it be the boiler at fault?.

my ensuite shower is blazin hot, no cold water seems to be coming through. Its run off the main heating/plumbing. Any advice please?

my hot water is scalding hot. I have turned thermostat on tank down. I have switched the hw option on the boiler controller to off - but as the ch has been on alot the water is still boiling. surely if I say not hw then it should cool down?
