Hi
Can anyone advise how to remove the corrosion on the temperature and relief valve on the outside of my tank.
There is a very slight drip occasionally but not much.

I have attached a photo.
Thanks 20170717_180736.jpg 20170717_180745.jpg
 
A dripping T & P valves indicates a potential problem. This is an essential safety device that should be looked at by a G3 certified plumber. Cleaning it will possibly make any leak worse. It needs testing, reinstalling or replacing if necessary.
 
Time for a service call get your G3 egineer to swap that dont mess about with it as you could make the problem worse cheers kop

Hi. I need a new toilet supply line but don’t know the size type of the fitting at the shut off valve. It is not 3/8 compression. It is a plastic nut about the same size as the one going into the cistern but has a different thread. Attached is a photo. Can you advise. Thanks.
