letting

Renting, also known as hiring or letting, is an agreement where a payment is made for the temporary use of a good, service or property owned by another. A gross lease is when the tenant pays a flat rental amount and the landlord pays for all property charges regularly incurred by the ownership. An example of renting is equipment rental. Renting can be an example of the sharing economy.

    Conceala 2 cistern letting by

    Hi I've seen a few threads with similar issues to mine, but none are exact. My conceala 2 cistern flushes fine, fills up and stops. But then it periodically flushes some, but not all of its contents to the toilet bowl. This happens pretty frequently. At least twice an hour. I have tried 2 new...

    Three way valve letting by. (it's a Danfoss).

    It's happened before a few years ago and I changed the complete thing - valve body and actuator. Straight swap, Danfoss for Danfoss. But, now, after the heating has been off all summer, a couple of the adjacent rads get slightly warm when the hot water is on, so presumably the rubber seal in...

    Auto Bypass Letting by (apparently this is normal (?) )

    Hi there, I recently fitted an ABV to a Y plan system due to the fact that the heating side is full of TRVs and the boiler has a minimum flow requirement. The boiler also has a requirement that if a bypass be fitted in a Y plan scenario, the bypass should be capable of dissipating 1kW of heat...

Apart from making sure that it's set to the same max pressure is the one inside the boiler I...

    Had a call from a landlord the other day to go and look at a toilet that wasn't flushing properly. The letting agents had apparently sent round their handyman to fix it, followed by their plumber and it still wasn't working and were now recommending a new loo. I went round this afternoon and...
