What we all working on this week ?

[king of pipes]

I have a insurance job to try and rescue a poorly installed quad shower the customer wants to save the tiling if possible and has a few spare so fingers crossed it may work , the loss adjuster allowed em £1500 that will just about cover materials. Kop

You can’t meet boiler plus with the mechanical clock and room stat as far as I know.
So you need Weather comp.
Or an external programmer/stat and tell the user not to touch the built in timer as it must be permanently on.

I fitted an Independant c24 recently for a landord, I used a Salus wireless room stat as it was the cheapest available. Doesn’t comply but like you say, who’s going to check.

2 Thermostatic showers back-to-back (in a empty spa building I must say).

 

[king of pipes]

My first biggish job near completion since lockdown started stripping out Thursday and Friday last week , this shower room needed turning round quickly so went for multi panel to blend in with the existing tile that was installed 5 years ago and still looking good , the Victoria plumb shower and tray installed hadn't faired so well was leaking badly and looked shabby , I installed a Aqualisa Zuri smart shower with the processor box installed above in the loft connected to a Viessman 100 combi and Qualitex shower tray and wetroom glass, just the wiring, commissioning, lagging , and the clearing up to do today so 4.5 days which I think is reasonable cheers chaps keep safe .

Panels actually look decent. Which ones you use and how do you attach them?
