    Basin waste blues With a leak

    I normally bin the top washer and silicone the waste to the top of the basin, and depending on the rubber underneath I silicone the top of the rubber and seal it to the basin then the nut. But all 3 wastes leaked. Swapped the wastes today and not 1 leak. o_O

    Basin waste blues With a leak

    why is it that 90% of basin wastes leak if you use the washers they supply. Fitted 3 of the same wastes today in 3 different basins and all leaked. You’d think manufacturers would test their crap products!!! :mad:

    Grip It fixings useless?

    You can get some toggle fixings from screwfix, they support 50kg each fixing on a downward pull. They are a little more expensive than most but they’re really good. https://www.NoLinkingToThis/p/timco-spring-toggles-6-x-40mm-10-pack/4787x

    Open vent boiler on a sealed system

    hello all, I’m doing a flush today and I’ve noticed they have a Vitodens 100-W WB1B open vented boiler on a sealed system. Will this cause any issues in terms of normal operation?

    Tify to Gas Engineer, what will it take??

    Tify to Gas Engineer, what will it take??

    Ummmm, I don’t think age is a relevant factor in deciding to change career. If you want to change, change. It’s your life. Do what you want. So you don’t have to take any gas exams? That’s a crock of s**t. But hey, gas safe ‘know’ what they’re doing! Good luck with the change.
