In my neverending pursuit of knowledge, I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on these 2 circumstances that vexxed me this week:
1) why do half inch fibre washers sometimes refuse to fit onto the seating of tap connectors? - I changed a ballvalve on a CWSC this week and thought I'd change the washer at the same time, but the new fibre washer was too small to fit on (washer and seating both dry). Ended up using PFTE :/
2) Had a back to wall pan today - the holes for securing the pan to the floor were in the usual place - but went directly horizontal (into the centre of the pan) instead of being angled towards the floor! Never seen that before, I'm assuming there should be some sort of block that goes under the pan (which is secured to the floor) then you just screw in from the side?
Everyday is a schoolday !!
