Hi,

I’m struggling to locate the stopcock in my flat and I need to isolate the boiler so I can swap a bath tap over. Can I isolate it from the water feed on one of the inlets on my boiler? I’ve attached a pic. It’s a Main Combi 24 HE.
All my cold taps can be isolated individually but my hot taps can’t be (typical) so any help is appreciated!

I’ve checked behind the panel and no joy. So if I turn that valve then no water coming at me while I swap the tap. Thanks for your help!
 
Wouldn’t turn the boiler one off as chances are it will leak afterwards and it won’t turn the cold off

under the kitchen sink ? Downstairs toilet ?

Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?

Hello all, I'm would like to extend an existing outside tap to another point in the garden. I'm about to pour a concrete patio and was hoping to run the water line underneath. There are existing drain (and who knows what) pipes running along the same wall so I'm nervous about digging too far...
