Thanks.
 
Turn of the blue plastic headed tap unscrew the blue water feed hose.

The grey flexible hose is the waste so remove from the white plastic pipe and you may need to re-angle that spigot upwards to avoid a leak or cap it
 
When you turn the valve off and remove the hose , get. 3/4 cap and seal and put it on inplace of the pipe you have removed . ( same as the other valve )
If you are replacing the dishwasher straight away dont bother .

Shall I turn the blue headed screw upwards or downwards, please?
 
down but it will only turn one way as theres a stop

So in effect after the blue headed valve has been taken off, the hole must be plugged with the 3/4 cap seal. Sorry for being thick.
What about the grey waste pipe bit?
 
see the grey nut with the bumps undo this and use this to cap it off

Many thanks. As always very good and helpful folks on this forum. :)
 
grey waste pipe

do you see the chrome clips with the bits sticking up

to remove these are a bit more trickey

you need to squeeze the to tabs together and at the same time remove the grey flex hose

then get a plastic bag with no holes in and cable tie it around the rubber / pipe

I have attached an image of the brass body within a tap. Having replaced a cartridge which has cured a leaking tap, I can see that there is a small leak from the brass body which can be unscrewed. Is there a seal behind the body? Thanks.

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks
