Thinking about replacing an old Wilo Gold 50 as Wilo say the payback would be about 2 years given the electricity savings. Looks like they suggest a Yonos PICO 25/1-6. Any thoughts on this?
Hi,
A customer has sent me a picture of a gainsborough 8.5 es shower. It no longer gets hot, after speaking to the manufacturers they have said its only 1 of 2 issues. Either the water pressure is below 1bar so not activating the solenoid - unlikely. Or the 'engine' has gone which to replace...
Hi, I'm considering replacing my existing radiators which are almost 40 years old. Firstly is it worth replacing my existing radiators with new ones? How much more effective are new radiators and how long are they expected to last. I've got old pipework and some old valves. They could do with...
Hi,
Having replaced all the radiators in current system I would like to update the control (as seen in image) with a modern digital one. Would this be a simple job and what type of control would I need?
I'm not a complete novice when it comes to electrics but then I'm no electrician either.
All...
I have Drayton TRV4's and over the last few years quite a number of the sensing heads have started to break off. As far as I can tell the gland seal on the valve starts to weep, water gets into the plastic head and attacks the plastic which becomes brittle and cracks.
They were fitted 18 years...
Hi all,
Looking for some advice.
A friends dad needs a new hot water cylinder. Easy enough, so i thought.
Cylinder is fed from a wood burner and has gravity primaries.
I'm not 'Heatas' and tbh not sure i need to be to carry out the replacement? I am gas safe, oftec and have unvented.
Thought i'd...
I was told my my plumber that the crystals in my Combimate needed changing and I decided to have a go at it myself but now it's leaking - there is a steady drip coming from the bottom. I cleaned everything thoroughly, replaced the rubber seal with a new one, pushed the dome in as far as it will...
Hi,
I have a large three storey cold Victoria house and I'm having an extension being built which adds a large amount of additional volume to heat. The new space will be UFH and the existing heating system zoned to upstairs and downstairs.
The entire heating system is a single zone in 22mm...
Evening all, merry christmas.
I'm trying to replace a tap gland in our bathroom, apparently not as simple as I thought.
Old taps, can't find the brand, probably 15-20 years at least.
I bought a washer seat grinding/facing tool, and a new tap gland (from Wickes and Homebase).
The grinding...
I currently have a Honeywell dial type thermostat installed which needs to be replaced, i have bought a Honeywell digital thermostat (DT90E).
The old thermostat has 3 wires....
but this new digital one only requires 2 wires, live and switching no neutral is needed for what ever reason...
Hi all.
I'm suffering from hunting and an increase in noise from the hot water/central heating pump. At least I'm pretty certain its the pump.
The crurrently fitted unit is shown below in the first link. This has been installed for nearly 6 years. I've decided to replace it but...
Hi there, wonder if I could get some advice? The plastic connector between the toilet handle and flush mechanism has come away, it appears to be sheared off. I presume this thing lifts the plunger that allows the cistern to drain into the bowl.
What's the best approach to fixing this? Can I...
I have an old type 21 (600 mm by 1400 mm) that is against a wall I'd like to put furniture against, so I'd like to move it. There is no room to just move it along the wall so I was thinking of replacing it with two smaller ones on either side of the adjacent corner of the room. I guess the old...
Hello,
I am changing the old lead pipe.Will I get away with 20mm MDPE considering the wall of the lead pipe didn't leave much of an opening.
Thanks,A123dhills.
Our indirect copper water cyclinder has started leaking. Not a flood but enough to wet the whole floor in the airing cupboard. Could not find any obvious leaks from pipe joints, shower pump etc. so called in a plumber. He cut away insulation layer at bottom and found heavy corrosion. He has...
Hi guys
I'm in the process of replacing cloakroom toilet suite and unearthed these isolating valves. I was expecting a traditional compressing fitting. Any idea how to remove these?
Thanks

Hi guys
I'm replacing an old toilet cloakroom suite with new vanity basin unit and vanity toilet unit. Current fittings date back to early 1980s.
As a DIYer I'm thinking I should replace the isolating valve for the toilet inlet with a straight coupler and place a new isolating valve further up...
