What have you invented/designed mate. Anything I would have seen?Chris Jepp is a plumbing component designer/inventor like me and he has had some good products - good luck Chris
The MFD from Flowflex is mine. 3 mag filters, solar roof and other odd things but for a company so not in my name

Mechanical Filling Device for pressurised domestic heating systems
combis and system heating
That’s what I was also getting at mate. 2 great minds and all that.Brilliant idea , but just not practical inless you can get at the back of the pan when its in situ , not on a bench as a demo .
Would work on a low level panNeat idea. But only if you can get to the nuts. No goood if it’s fully built in cistern, like geberitt etc.
Would work on a pan against built in furniture though.

Prv in a box?
It's not a part I would say leaks that often
Only really if the flushpipe has been cut too short which I see alot. Flush one installed with abit of silicone to hold it in the pan and they never leak/pull out.
So your one of those
Its fully patented (to me) in EU - if it was so simple would not get a patent - your getting warm
Agreed, if you were going out to these leaking regularly then you'd use this product, but flush cones only need to be installed correctly to not leak.It's not a part I would say leaks that often
The element of most washing machines uses a very similar principle. Seen a similar principle used to seal copper wastes into an iron stack boss too. Probably it never will leak.Worth giving a go. Only problem I can see is if it ever leaks
So does it keep filling the system to a set pressure? What happens if you get a big leak, split rad for instance. House flooded? Not being funny, just curious

Same as an open-vented system. How about using either in conjuntion with Water Block Shut Off Valve - 13756 - Isolating, Flow Control & Service | BES.co.uk (from what I can gather, this device stops flow if more than a pre-set value (5-50l) is exceeded in one go, but the instructions are slightly vague).So does it keep filling the system to a set pressure?

Essentially you have it Ric - with a not rocket science extra one way valve. Its taken 5 years and many £'s to set it up, using patent attorney and commercial lawyers to protect it EU wide and in the far east (selected areas). MFD is on sale now to non end user initially then B&Q and Amazon soon as its an out the box diy fit in 5 mins - It it is manufactured and backed by Flowflex largest manu of plumbing and heating fittings in Uk. Thats what my company do for myself and others who approach us with ideas. My patent is available for anybody to see world wideSame as an open-vented system.
