Gents,
It finally happened.
A developer has asked for a price for the entire house to be fitted in copper with press fitting......
Does anyone have a rough idea of how much it would cost compared to plastic? Part of me wants to say double but it could be more when factioring labourt and...
Hi Everyone,
Does anyone know where to find out what size the O rings are in a Mira 723 service kit as I have one (at the pointy end of the piston/spindle) that keeps failing and I cannot afford to keep spending £23 to get one O ring. It is part "G" on the 723 instructions. Any help very...
Hello I’m hoping for some perceptive / input as I’m a long-distance landlord trying to unpick the best thing to do. Gas safety certificate was done on my rental flat (1st floor) which has a 10 year old Aviston E-combi EVO boiler. It failed based on rusting external flu components, which has...
Hi plumbers and DIYers
I made a post about my 3-port valve a couple of weeks ago, but have finally been able to take a look and thought best to start a new one than tag on. Hope that's ok.
Recap: We've had a problem whereby our boiler will only heat the radiators, even when set to hot water...
Hi again
I'm on a roll with the plumbing questions today! So here's query #2...
We've not used our hot water for quite some time, and it now doesn't work. From what I can gather based on what I've learnt in the last hour or two, I think the problem is with the 3 port motorised valve. When...
Hi,
Yesterday morning my partner smelled gas in the flat and called cadent, the gas man came and he was not able to pinpoint where or even if there was a leak inside the flat, he tested the pressure and detected a drop of 1.5 milibar on the 2 minute test so he capped the pipe and said i needed...
Hi all,
We have a gravity fed system and are getting a new shower installed as part of a whole new bathroom fit out.
It's been suggested we could connect our bathroom sink taps to the mains, rather than the water storage tank as it is at present.
Is there any reason why a shower pump can't...
Woke this morning to see water pouring out the bottom of our downstairs loo. Took a closer look and found this large whole in the pan connector. Easy enough to replace - but what could have made this hole? Is a rat the most obvious answer? See picture!
Evening. I’ll start by being honest, I’ve no idea with plumbing, I’ll understand basic concepts but...
The house I’ve bought has a kitchen with the below photo of underside of the sink. In a morning or at occasions where it’s been left for a while when water (or whatever really) is drained off...
Good evening all, hope everyone is keeping well.
First of all I hope this thread is in the right place, it didn't really fit into any other sections. Please let me know if it belongs elsewhere, and i'll move it! I've had a look around the forum and not found an answer to my question, at least...
I have a pressure reading of 75 psi to my house but the flow is very poor. We do not have a water softener or pressure regulator. The flow is about even on hot and cold taps. We ran a 5gal bucket test and after over 1min we were not even at half. This started about 1 year ago and has gradually...
Hi all, I have a customer that is in need of a whole house pump fitted in a bungalow. The problem being is access from the hot water cylinder to the loft space is inaccessible and no additional pipework can be fed from A-B due to loft conversion.
The current set up ihas a raised header tank a...
Hi hope you are well.
I have a gravity fed hot and cold. Hot water cylinder is on ground floor. Cold tank is in loft. I have 2 showers on 1st floor. One is pumped by a pump in the loft. Other is pumped by pump in shower itself. The latter is noisy and I want to replace it. But pressure in house...
Had to take the lid off to replace the inlet diaphram, but now can't replace the lid without also messing up the two button mechanism.
This is not a 'normal' two button cistern, where the buttons can be removed individually, with this one (make unknown) the whole dual button bit unscrews so you...
We're talking 33 boilers in a new build.
Of which 12 have been installed by a non gsr plumber before I got there, but we fixed the f-ups, and then 21 by 6 gsr including me. There has been some flue upsizing on 4 boilers, later discovered by me to be unnecesary, and some arguing along the way...
Hi, I am looking at putting in a new system where I raise the cwsc in the loft, put the cylinder in there and use a whole house pump to pump 2 bathrooms but not the toilets. Would like it to be as quiet as possible. Any recommendations? Looking at a couple of big shower heads in this and a bath...
Hi there,
New to the forums so hope this is the right place to post!
We've currently got a (presumably) fairly standard hot water setup = cold water tank in the loft, hot water tank in ground floor cupboard. It currently has a hot water supply off the top of the tank that runs upstairs to the...

I’d really appreciate some advice.
We moved into a new build 3 story town house last Monday. It’s got a Worcester boiler & 2 wireless thermostats (one by the front door, the other on the first floor landing).
When the downstairs thermostat asks for heat (to warm up the kitchen & lounge) every...
