closed

In geometry, topology, and related branches of mathematics, a closed set is a set whose complement is an open set. In a topological space, a closed set can be defined as a set which contains all its limit points. In a complete metric space, a closed set is a set which is closed under the limit operation.
This should not be confused with a closed manifold.

    2 Port Valve Closed Question

    I have a honeywell 2 port valve to the emersion tank which is allowing water to pass through on the closed position meaning the water is boiling hot. A previous plumber left an old port valve in cupboard which I took to bits to see how it works. 😀 I thought the seal must have gone inside but...

    Honeywell Motorised Valve Not Fully Sealed when Closed

    When I have my hot water on and the central heating is off, there is still a small flow of hot water through the motorised valve for the central heating. There's sufficient flow to slightly warm some of the closest radiators. Does this usually mean a new motorised valve or is there something...

    HELP! Tub stopper stuck in closed position

    I accidentally jammed the tub stopper and it won't come out, instead of using the level I just pushed it down... Is there any way to fix this without taking all the system apart? Or Do I also just need to get a new waste system for the tub?

    I have a radiator on the landing that was leaking on the right hand end beneath the temperature dial 6 months ago and I was advised to turn the valve on the other end off because I don't use the radiator and it was either that or replace parts. Problem solved. Until now when the valve itself, on...
