In my boredom I thought I would renew the 40 mm dish washer waste piping. It basically goes from inside the kitchen through the outside wall and discharges into the gate/gully under the kitchen sink using 40mm pipe and elbows but no u bend/trap.

Exploring options for my bro's flat. One is to convert to a pressurised system.

Hi all
I have a pumped/gravity fed heating system, about 10 rads. From what I've read, the pump should generally only require setting 2. However, the only way to get the house warm is to have the pump on its highest setting 3. Over the last year I've had a new pump, and the system...

True or False?
