Hey guys,

I posted a few days ago about changing my bath - well anyway the ball is rolling and new bath arrives tomorrow.

My question is this; the shut of valve for the cold water doesn't seem to be working can anyone suggest how I may get around this?

Here is a picture were the top one is the hot water (which switches of ok) and the bottom one cold water (even when turned the water still comes through).

Thats only the isolation valves to the mixing valve not the isolation valve for the cold tap.
Shutting them will only stop the hot tap supplies.

Ah thanks mate.

So how do I shut of the cold water? Need to disconnect the taps to remove the bath.
 
What is the cold mains or tank fed ?
Mains isolate the mains stopcock
Tank isolate the cold feed to bathroom from the tank.

Fit an isolation valve on the cold feed then you can reopen stopcock etc.

Thanks again for your time!

It's underfloor heating using a NIBE F205P so I assume that would fall under Tank fed? I assume then that the isolation valve will be under the cover of that?
