MThey're about ten times the price of 'passive' radiators and exist in many variants so I don't expect many merchants are going to hold stock locally. Try the 'Where to buy' page on the manufacturers' sites. E.g...

MMatt0029 replied to the thread Fan assisted radiators.Thanks I'll have a look it's for a heat pump want to see its effect in cooling mode with a fan assisted radiator. I have an old Myson one fan and the bottom of the radiator with heating coil above it's from and old system though so...

MHas anyone fit any of these? I'm after one but most merchants I speak to don't seem to supply.

MIf using temperature clamps on a plate HEX. To diagnose if it's blocked. Are you ment to have a large DT. As the plate is transferring heat when it's unblocked?

MMatt0029 posted the thread Shower luke warm after turning the water on and off. in UK Plumbers Forums.Any ideas why a bar shower maybe running like warm after having turned the water on and off to do some other work? Thanks

MYou can weight it down, but make sure whatever you put in the bath will not damage it, eg: sand bags or other heavy but soft items, baths can easily scratch, so if you have to use heavy hard items, then put a large dust sheet or similar...

MMatt0029 replied to the thread Weighing down bath before siliconing.Was thinking maybe pillows then some weights on top of those if I need to

MMatt0029 replied to the thread Weighing down bath before siliconing.I need to silicone before I fit the taps. Guess I can swap the waste. Fill bath. Then silicone then swap the taps
-
MTbh I wouldn’t as the risk of damage is high you could try bags of sand
-
MThe best way to weigh down the bath before you seal round the bath to the tile, is to half fill the bath with water, wait until the sealant has dried then empty the bath. Use a decent quality sealant, job done.

MMatt0029 replied to the thread Weighing down bath before siliconing.Thanks I need to silicone before I cut the taps really. Unless I fill before I swap I also need to swap the waste on this visit
-
MI have a bath to silicone that I can fill with water before I silicone. Can I put some some weights or something in the bath to mimic the weight of a bath full of water. Anyone had to do this before?

MMatt0029 replied to the thread Shared main swapping internal stop tap.Would that be the preferred method if installing an isolation ok the MDPE feed pipe externally to the property?
-
MMatt0029 replied to the thread Shared main swapping internal stop tap.If did it outside this would be the best stop tap for it? It's 25mm MDPE

MMatt0029 replied to the thread Shared main swapping internal stop tap.A pit as in a access eye then a stop tap below. The internal stop tap doesn't work 😞
-
MMatt0029 replied to the thread Shared main swapping internal stop tap.Thanks yes it would just remove the hassle of writing to the other houses on the main. This is the end house. And can see the MDPE going in to this house down a hole the builders left. So could squeeze this off to avoid turning all the...

Yep squeeze off tool is ok providing your not close to a fitting eg within 6” -
MMatt0029 replied to the thread Shared main swapping internal stop tap.Thanks Shaun so if I can get it on the external MDPE that is on show. Maybe better then turning the shared main off possibly?
-
MNo worries. I’m particularly “risk adverse” with jobs especially when it affects people other than customer. Some water board can get arsey if you use main stopcock and then it doesn’t work properly. Severn Trent seem okay about it...

MMatt0029 replied to the thread Shared main swapping internal stop tap.Thanks a squeeze off tool maybe an option if I can get to the MDPE pipe on show?
-
MMatt0029 replied to the thread Shared main swapping internal stop tap.Thanks didn't think about that. There is some MDPE you can see in the garden down a hole that is the supply to this house individually off the shared main. Maybe I could use a squeeze off tool on this? To avoid knocking the main off.

MMatt0029 replied to the thread Shared main swapping internal stop tap.Turn mains off turn back on and toilet fill valve messes up or something?
-
MWhat's the official/best way of doing this. Turning water off to a property to swap the internal stop tap. With the house being on a shared main. Around 6 houses on it I think.
