Hi there,
I've got a stuck Grundfus pump again, but this time the usual tricks don't work. I took it out, cleaned it, still won't turn.
Hand pressed against the rotating bit, screw pressed in, no movement.
Tried the same both plugged and unplugged. The black propeler thing won't budge.
Is it...
Hello Everyone.
I humbly come to post needing your advice on a rather urgent issue I have regarding my cold water tank in the loft. Basically, a few days ago I noticed a patch of yellow in my bedroom ceiling. I then went up in my loft to find that the water tank was leaking. I called a plumber...

Hi all,
A friend of mine gave me his gas boiler (24KW logic ideal) after only 1 year of use and it has since been sitting idle in storage for 2.5 years. I recently contacted a plumber to arrange having my current old boiler swapped with the boiler that has been in storage. The plumber warned me...
I’m not a heating engineer but I’m fairly knowledgeable on the way systems work. But I have come across an issue which I’m wondering is common.
Earlier this year I had a fully licensed engineer install a new baxi combi in a property I’m doing some work on. Great job done without any problems...
Hi, I've just moved into a house that has an immersion tank and a Salamander pump above it for the showers. It started leaking after a week and the shower went really hot so we called someone out who replaced an O ring, which stopped the leak, but it's still coming out too hot. I've just checked...
We live in a 200+ year old house and - over the past couple of days - a noise has started on a regular basis from our water pipes. It sounds like water is being drawn, but there are no taps on and no toilets are refilling, etc. It lasts for 2-3 seconds every few minutes (the interval between...

Hi all,
Whenever a cold tap or the washing machine is used in our house there is a single bang each time as it is turned off. This can be heard around the house but is loudest at the combi boiler in the upstairs airing cupboard. There is a shock arrestor fitted near the boiler which I have...
I could use some genuine advice please. I employed a plumber to check why my boiler was leaking. He has been 4 times now, replaced the expansion vessel, PRV, o rings and washers.
He messaged last week to say leak was fixed but when you put the hot water on it was making the radiators hot. He...
Hi
Just wondering if anyone could help me please.
I am getting loud vibrating/humming noises in the house when I’m not using any water. It seems to be coming from the cold feed and it’s vibrating through the house and you can hear it vibrating the boiler. I felt the pipe where the stop tap...
Hello
I am in a row of 4 houses and we have one stopcock in the street and the pipe divides off to each house and each house has a stopcock under the kitchen floor.
The water hammer has been going on for a couple of years and has become gradually worse to a point where I am turning my water...
I guess this is going to be an airlock problem but I have tried to deal with it and I am getting nowhere.
I have two rads at the end of the heating run and they get cold when others around the house are hot. Even though we live in a bungalow we do have a loft conversion with two rads upstairs...
