I have a Grundfos MQ3-45 feeding my domestic water from a ground level tank (filled from an RO system from the well). The pump is about 4 years old, with normal-heavy household use. Today it started making a bit of an awful noise - see the attached video. I disassembled the hydraulic end of it...
I can't get a consensus on this from four plumbers that have visited. We've been using the system with no prpblems for 7 years - but the cylinder leaks and needs replacing. It's an old and peculiar set up I have onherited after buting my two storey house. I would greatly appreciate any...
Hi,
When I turn on the central heating, the boiler makes a loud strange pulsating noise. It doesnt happen when the hot water is turned on, just the central heating. It sounds quite dangerous, like its going to explode. It doesnt always happen as soon as the central heating is turn on, sometimes...

Just moved into a house with 5 heating zones, 4 of which are underfloor and connected to a Heatmiser UH2. The 4 UFH zones each have a thermostat - one old dial type and 3 Heatmiser Slimline programmable stats.
A few teething problems with a zone valve fitted the wrong way round but generally...
Hi, I have really weird noises happening randomly at all times of day and night now
No water is running (that I’m aware of), nothing electric either, no heating. I have town water and a sceptic tank. The sound is loud and it’s hard to pinpoint its location so it may not be from the pipes that...
Hi All,
not sure if anyone seen these wastes before?
We have them in all 3 showers in our house we just moved into and they water seems to drain slowly from them.
Just never seen these shower traps before.
Any ideas of how I can unblock or should I put some liquid drain unblocker down.
Hi guys.
-Small flat with a kitchen and one bathroom.
-Vokera Unica 32 BHE boiler.
Problem: Kitchen tap has low HW pressure and sporadic hot temp
It's sporadic so sometimes water comes out piping hot, other times the boiler won't fire
Diverter motor and valve checked and ok
Bathroom sink tea...
Hi everyday peeps,
I need to correct a mistake in the heating system in my dad's flat which has two radiators connected with flow in at bottom and return from the same end at the top. Nothing wrong with TBSE in the right setting, but best not to have the flow and reversed messed up!
Easiest...
Hey guys, hope you're all good
My macerator is making a strange noise which is hard describe so below is a link to a video to make it easier to understand the noise. You can hear the noise at around 10 seconds! I've checked inside the tank and assessed the motor and everything seems clear. The...
Hi all,
First post and DIY'er, please be kind!
Just moved into a property which needs some work. Have a plasterer coming soon and need to get this rad off. Any ideas how on earth this valve works?! I've never seen one like it before. It's not moving with either a flat screwdriver or spanners...

This has been happening since I moved into my house around a year ago and it’s only keep getting worse. All day and night it does this, and sometimes the noise is so loud it wakes me up. I started to get a leak from our kitchen ceiling...
Hi all,
For the last couple of weeks I've been hearing a weird sound which I assume is coming from the pipes. Some times it's a short burst other times it can last a minute or so
But I can't track it down to a precise location. When I hear the noise I dont have any taps running, shower or...
