    Been told there is scale in my boiler/ CH circuit

    Just a thought but can you overdose the system on inhibitor? I mean if there is a scale problem would it be a bad idea to chuck in more than 1 bottle?

    Been told there is scale in my boiler/ CH circuit

    He didn't say I couldn't leave the cleaner in. Thanks for the heads up. Just read the back of the bottle and it says "circulate for one hour, drain and flush." I don't have a flushing machine, never used one, is it worth me using it at all do you think?

    Baxi DuoTech Combi HE, yes. Working normally, pressure correct.

    Been told there is scale in my boiler/ CH circuit

    Hi, I have my boiler on a boiler plan with Baxi. The heating hadn't been turned on since spring (a rookie mistake no doubt.) Engineer visited but he was only there to service. I think he briefly called for heating while doing whatever he was doing and then said it went "crazy" noise wise and...

    Can you normally mount concealed showers portrait or landscape?

    Thanks. That's a good point....plate would need to be plain. Cheers

    Can you normally mount concealed showers portrait or landscape?

    Customer wants a new concealed shower rather than repair current one. I've actually never installed a concealed shower before. There is good access to the other side of the wall as it's a cuboard (although that means I'll need to construct something to support the valve, any suggestions...

    Fitting an AAV to this bit of external soil

    Hi all, Custard has this open topped bit of soil which obviously stinks. She has bought two, for some reason, AAV's and tried sticking them in the end but still stinks. I've zero experience with soil and vent but I'm guessing the soil needs the socket cut off and these get solvent welded inside...

    Nabis Lamone toilet from Wolseley...Any good?

    Go-to bog was Ideal Standard Della from Screwfix but appears discontinued replaced by rimless version that everyone says is no good in the reviews. Navis Lamone from Wolseley looks reasonable from the one pic (and no dimensions given) on the site. Anyone fitted it? Looks reasonable? Not too...

    Do I have an overly demanding flow switch(?) on boiler?

    Not sure I'll get involved with that as beyond my understanding and it's got cover anyway. But thanks for the tip.

    It's not super powerful, don't know how many lpm, will check.

    Do I have an overly demanding flow switch(?) on boiler?

    They taps in question have standard full turn compression tap valves and rubber washers. So guessing these aren't going to let cold through when just hot is being operated?

    Do I have an overly demanding flow switch(?) on boiler?

    It's a Baxi Duo-Tech Combi HE I've lived here for nearly 3 years and the problem only started in last year or so. All the taps and shower have been changed during that period but I don't believe the problem occurred immediately. Peak demand may be something? Although not sure how you discover...

    Do I have an overly demanding flow switch(?) on boiler?

    Caveat: I don't do boilers so no idea about them. My flow switch comment is pure guesswork based on zero understanding. If I turn my kitchen mixer tap on hot, fully on, cold fully off, about 75% of the time the combi fires up and produces hot water for a bit but will then cut out. I am not...

    Anyone know where I can get a 3/8" toilet overflow blank/stopper?

    Yeah saw one today. And another one few weeks back. Both had 1/2" fill valve hole one side and 3/8" the other. Actually come to think of it it must be an alternate fill valve hole for the euro market. What would be the point of a 3/8" overflow hole? Probably came with supplied optional blanks...

    Anyone know where I can get a 3/8" toilet overflow blank/stopper?

    If I ever find one leaking/accidentally disturb one I'll have to put in a 3/8" inlet valve that's not piped up. That'd sure look professional lol.

    Anyone know where I can get a 3/8" toilet overflow blank/stopper?

    Seems to be only 1/2" and 3/4" even on places like toiletspares.co.uk But they def exist as I've seen a couple. Amount of bogs I fix I'd quite like one on the van. But google comes up with nowt. Cheers

    Would you change this toilet?

    I'm thinking say yes, plan to just clean the rubber pan con seal, bit of plumbers mate on new pan waste spigot if it looks like it would help but inform customer no guarantees on how long it lasts and that if it doesn't it's tiles off due to the tiler making impossible to change pan con. Or...
