My little haul after todays visit to PHEX at Stamford Bridge :devilish:

 

[Barry98]

Wait recount might have a contender , is that a tshirt?

 

[steveafoss]

Yes remeha t-shirt all sweets were eaten during day also got a pedometer. Most say though the disappointment of the day was the Buffet.......... Mash and pie in a box but not very good

 

[Destroyer2813]

But I got 2 thsirts , I weren't impressed by the buffet either

 

[Rodolphe]

The food was TERRIBLE. I know I'm French, but still.

Has anyone of you used that self-plugging isolating valve they were demonstrating? Can't remember the name of the company now, of course, nor can I be bothered looking in the 5 tons of papers I brought back.

 

[steveafoss]

yes i got one, it's called aladdin easy fit isolator

 

[Rodolphe]

That's the one. It looked like it might be real helpful in a pickle. I'm going to check at Ray's tomorrow see if they stock it 🙂

 

[steveafoss]

at the show it was £30 including the fitting tool, they said they are £38 without the tool (£8) - would be interested to see if that is right! it's a solid looking bit of kit

 

[Rodolphe]

Wouldn't you know, I'm such a cretin it didn't even occur to me that I could buy there and then !!!! I might just go back tomorrow just to pick one up, as I'll be in town anyway...

 

[Killy Bing]

I picked one up today too, for the 30 quid.
I've had it apart and had a look, pretty well built !!!

Shame due to the cost but when the time comes its going to be a life saver !!

surprisingly intergas new boilers look like they might turn into something half decent too !!!
the guy did mention they have just patented a new flue connection type that gets around "must have access to every joint" new bit of regs
10 metres regular flue up or horrizontal (with a 3.5 degree rise) and a twin flue option thats even further !!!

Don't think we do. I don't recognise the description, but I am up there tomorrow so will look out for it.

Its a good demo on show, the guys are enthusiastic and looking to do a 22mm version too. Travis perkins are now starting to stop them, Ray you need to get some off the guys for freebies *cough*
