Upstairs Downstairs is a British drama series, broadcast on BBC One from 2010 to 2012, and co-produced by BBC Wales and Masterpiece. Created and written by Heidi Thomas, it is a continuation of the London Weekend Television series of the same name, which ran from 1971 to 1975 on ITV.
The series resumes the story of 165 Eaton Place, the fictional setting of both iterations of the programme, in 1936, six years after the original series concluded. Jean Marsh reprises her role as Rose Buck, who becomes housekeeper of the re-established household, with Ed Stoppard and Keeley Hawes playing its new owners Sir Hallam and Lady Agnes Holland. The first series, consisting of three episodes, was broadcast across consecutive nights during Christmas 2010. The second series consists of six episodes, first aired between 19 February 2012 and 25 March 2012. The series ends at the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939.
Hi all
Just debating whether or not to zone my heating upstairs and Down? It's gonna be a new install and the house is under 150m2 but just wondering how much you would actually save on the gas bill as to whether its worth doing
Thanks in advance
I'm looking to connect an upstairs toilet into an existing ground floor soil stack. Is the solution I've drawn out possible or does the soil stack vent need to be above the connecting appliance still?
Red is the proposed new pipework and brown the existing.
Let me know any questions.
Gravity system.
2 rads and 1 towel rail.

All stone cold when heating is on, although the customer tells me that after the heating has been on for about 3 hours they do start to feel warm.

Eggy smell downstairs when kitchen sink used upstairs. This happens only when the upstairs kitchen sink hasn't been used for a while (i.e. 8 hours/a working day). It goes away after about 15mins or so.
What is the cause and what can be done about it?
Specific advice would be greatly appreciated!
Hi
I have a recent issue in that I can only get heat upstairs or downstairs but not to both. And when I do put just the downstairs heating on, the two furthest away radiators struggle to warm up even when the other radiators downstairs are turned down. Also, when the hot water comes on both...

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Hello,

Hi Guys
I'm after some advice. Last weekend out cold water taps in the 2 bathrooms upstairs started to drizzle then the water completely stopped. Called out a plumber, whos said there was an airlock. He did something under the kitchen sink which then seemed to bring the water back. Also replace...
Good evening people, having a very frustrating couple of days!! The problem is as follows.
If i put the Downstairs thermostat on override. Operating light on mpe222 valve. Boiler fires up. Heating supplied to downstairs.
Then override on upstairs thermostat, this puts on operating light and...
As in the title, the flow and return pipes both get hot when the heating is turned on, yet only the upstairs radiators get hot.
I am very puzzled by this. Even turning off all thermostatic valves upstairs, none of the downstairs rads get hot. Our plumber says there must be a blockage looking...
Hi all...new member here, hoping someone can help!
I have slow running water from my upstairs taps.
The house is a 1980s build with a cold water tank in the loft.
I have had this problem several times and am able to cure it by connecting a hose to the tap and sending mains pressure back up...
Hi everyone, I'm looking for some advice on my central heating. We moved into a house with an 'Exclusive ProCombi 24' boiler about a year ago, and it's been working well up until 2 days ago. Some radiators were warm rather than hot, so we bled the radiators. This caused the pressure to drop, so...
Hi everyone,
My customer has an unvented cylinder, with two two-port valves.
At night, she's noticed her bedroom rad (the rad nearest the cylinder) stays on when heating is turned off. The hot water in the cylinder is the correct temperature (i.e., not overheating, so cylinder stat and...
Hi All,
Currently doing a new build that has underfloor heating downstairs and radiators upstairs. From the image provided can anyone tell me in order from left to right what each one of these pipes does by the way the plumber has marked them with tape. Thanks.
Hi all,
I have noticed recently when we flush our upstairs toilet sometimes you can hear what sounds like a loud banging almost matalic noise from the loft? It only lasts a split second.
It doesn't happen all the time and only seems to occur when the upstairs toilet is flushed.
Any help much...
Hi all,
I've moved home recently and was curious to see how much change in the water meter reading having a bath would have - The meter is in the downstairs toilet so I can see the reading. I've noticed however that after a bath, there was no change at all in the reading, if I run any taps...

Hi,
I have just installed a bath/shower and whilst it works and looks great the pressure is abysmal due to the low hot water pressure upstairs. I tested it and it took nearly half an hour to fill the bath. The sink hot tap is poor as is the en suite. Although the en suite shower is pretty...
Turned off mains, opened cold and hot side of kitchen tap, both stopped in about 30 seconds. Worked on toilet and changed some tap washers. Turned back on, all good pressure downstairs, hot and cold very poor upstairs.
Told her I'm not unvented so can't advise/deal with.
But did I do anything...
I'm having a full house refurb and extensions built and had always been keen to have underfloor heating and no radiators. We don't have any plans for a fire or burner either.
Does anyone have any experience living solely with UFH?
Would you recommend it or should I maybe go with UFH for the...
