turns
A turn is one round of rope on a pin or cleat, or one round of a coil. Turns can be made around various objects, through rings, or around the standing part of the rope itself or another rope. A turn also denotes a component of a knot.
When the legs of a loop are brought together and crossed the rope has taken a turn. One distinguishes between single turn, round turn, and two round turns depending on the number of revolutions around an object. The benefit of round turns is best understood from the capstan equation.

So my wife sent me a video of our bathroom. When she turns on the sink faucet water comes out the tub faucet also. Currently the sink does not have a hot line going to it due to addition of a 2nd bathroom and future remodel plans for this bathroom. Also, writing from memory so could be wrong...

Hello All, I've got a negative head shower pump which turns on randomly for a few seconds when not in use. I've checked that the shower and all the taps are off and that none of the taps are leaking.
A plumber diagnosed the issue as a faulty pump and installed a new Salomander 1.8 Bar...
I've just had some boiler work done yesterday where the mains water had to be switched off. The shower pump (Monsoon make) now only switches on for 20 seconds then powers off and back on again for 20 seconds when I try to turn the shower on.
It stays on longer if I put the mixer to hot water...

Hi all,
We recently moved into our house and have had a few issues with the cold water and showers.
The cold water goes from the tank through a water pump to the shower. hot water is fed from a combi-boiler.

My name is Luke. I am a new joiner to this forum. I have a problem with one of the vertical radiators I installed. It doesn't heat up at all. The connecting pipes are cold. I tried closing all radiators except for the one in question, but nothing changes (there is a bypass valve...
hi, have a worcester highflow 4.5. working fine until recently where the central heating stopped coming on, although I can manually operate the diverter valve and have it heat that way (if I lock the diverter valve open). So I thought the synchron valve was the issue, replaced that. Now it seems...
