lame plumber
fairly stunning bit of trigonometry
Is that a small pressure vessel on the cold in? Didn't know you could do that....

You should if there's a water meter or your fitting a boiler with plastic block. Worcestors need em
Plastic block?
K

Water section manifold. Glowworm call it the sanitary block often referred to as the hydroblock or similar. Worcestors are plastic nowadays as are Glowworm and I beleive the new logics. Without the mini expansion vessel the plastic tends to warp/split and **** water out everywhere.
The filling loop?

Nope. The whole water section of the boiler. Combis
Oh ok... Weird as my firm mainly fit Worcesters and I've never seen the pressure vessel being fitted... Will have to do some research.. Cheers kay-jay
Ohhhh gotchya!!! Cheers mate.

Looks great Alex very neat but the shower valve is horrendous! Shame they didn't want a new one.
It's a good old MIRA mixer, still works fine. A customer is always right...

Working for mates on a building site . Most of the mess was his. It was scarcasm. I have very good sheets runners mats and adhesive protection.
Only if there's a check valve within 2 meters or something like that I thought... Iv never seen one fitted to any boiler but the one in your pic 🙂

Maybe not but i bet you have seen many worcesters with split plastic water sections peeing water everywhere?

That is the mutts. I am jealous
Shock arrestors are used to prevent water hammer. Water hammer is caused by shock waves running through the water system which create noise, or in server cases pipe movement within the system, reverberations are a series of shock waves in quick succession. The pressure wave in such circumstances can be up to three times greater than the standing pressure. Water hammer occurs when the flow rate is suddenly changed e.g. when a valve is quickly closed; quarter turn lever operated taps or solenoid valves are two of the main culprits. Reverberations occur when system components have moving parts, which respond to an initial shock wave by trying to open or close. Shock arrestor is a mini expansion vessel, which works by absorbing the shock wave from the fitting so that it does not travel through the system and cause noise. The closer the shock arrestor is installed to the fitting the better.
Yeah but how many attempts?
First attempt, true. A cardboard template helps a lot.
I don't believe you, I think you put the stairs in after.
What wetroom former did you use Alex?
