    x400 - over-long duration

    Hello, I put x400 in our system at the end of November, intending to leave it for a few days but took ill and it's still in there. Now on the mend I want to drain it soon & I've just emailed Sentinel who replied: "The maximum recommended time for Sentinel X400 to be in the system prior to...

    Ultra compact wall hung toilet frame

    I'm redoing our 4' x 4' downstairs loo. My wife took a shine to an L shaped basin loo unit & the blurb states that the toilet unit can take a frame. However it's only a 500 wide unit (470 inside) and only 820mm high. Been looking around at frames and stumbled across Arezzo who do one that...

    Taps: quality tiers?

    Hello, I've tried searching using Bristan, Grohe, Vado etc & get no results at all - I don't understand that! Anyway, is there an existing post, or would anyone be kind enough to proffer their opinion on tap quality. As I see it, there are two parameters - quality/thickness of chrome plating...

    Y plan CH or HW suddenly not working

    Hello. I've just replaced our old Potterton EP2 CH controller with a Drayton Wiser HubR (& peripherals). The old backing plate wasn't compatible with the new universal one, but the wiring was pretty close AFAICT (N, L, 1, 3 & 4 connected) .When I first powered it up but didn't have any TRVs...

    Drained CH system, boiler won't fire

    I drained the system to replace the pump with a WIlo, and to add Fernox system cleaner. I will confess that I forgot to drain it in an organised way (ie I didn't open the radiator bleed screws as the level dropped). I had a helluva tussle with the old pump - the valves wouldn't undo, no space...

    Tee basin into shower waste?

    Hello, have a 4m run of 50mm pipe for the shower. The layout of joists, closeness of corner walls etc mean that it would be very helpful to be able to add the basin waste to a swept tee in the shower waste and this could be between 300-800mm from the soil stack . I've read elsewhere very mixed...

    Waste pipe diameter?

    Hello, I'm installing a shower tray on a 4m run from the soil stack. Building control have specified 50mm pipe so that's what I've got. However, the 50mm pipe means that the only way they would allow a hole of this diameter through the joist was to put a doubler on it, which is OK, but just...

    Which wall hung frame make?

    After careful consideration, we're still going for a wall hung loo, with a large tiled removable access panel. I'm not interested in an unbranded cheapie - this is definitely an area to get the best. I've seen a lot of positive stuff about Geberit, but on my last post an amount of negative...

    Boiler "moaning" noise on heating water

    Hello, We have relatively recently moved in, and from the start, the boiler randomly makes a long moaning sound for maybe 30-45 seconds. I have uploaded a recording to ttp://www.spidery.talktalk.net/misc/boiler1.mp3 It only does it when the controller calls for HW. I have not yet been able to...
