    Expansion vessel saga continues...

    From your photos, there is a piece of foam lagging around the pipework to the vessel, just before the pipe clip that attaches it to the underneath of the shelf battens... I'd say that's been put that on there to try and stop the noise you're hearing. I'd get someone to open a tap at the time the...

    Dribbling into the toilet

    Either dump valve is letting by... Clean/replace seating washer. Or inlet valve is letting by... Clean/replace diaphragm. Or push button is not returning to relaxed position.

    Hot and Cold Pipe Repair - Good or Bad?

    Agreed... It's not usually the operative's fault... They are on the hurry up from management :mad:

    Hot and Cold Pipe Repair - Good or Bad?

    £5,000,000,000 :p All depends on draining down and refilling... Pipework repair is about 20 mins :D

    Then you suck the water out with a wet vac! It's the difference you get between a local independent and a national company on a Contract my friend.

    ADVISE PLEASE - What replacement boiler for Ferroli DOMIcompact F24B ?

    I know, but it's better accessible and depending on who he's getting to install it, whether they'd work of a ladder. Need to be an uninterrupted run out the roof as well cos access to loft space isn't easy and may not be good for inspection. Up to OP really, but I think he'd really like to reuse...

    I would have soldered it with 135°s and charged you accordingly... But I am not Home-swerve :)

    Go for the new flu location and just put a new one in to that point. Don't forget that it needs inspection hatches if you decide to box it in.

    Conceala 2 (sv93467) dump valve issues!

    Lol! Which bit.. The vacuum or overthinking it? I don't want to charge customer for a new push plate (@£30) if it's not that. So maybe I'll just bung the ends of the pneumatic hoses as a test, if she has further issues with it. That should rule them in or out you think?

    Conceala 2 (sv93467) dump valve issues!

    Hmmmnnn... Thinking about what you said... Do you think the valve might only function correctly when the hoses are connected to the bellows (buttons) so that resistance of the trapped air prevents the sealing washer from lifting slightly under buoyancy of the rising cistern water? Or am I...

    Conceala 2 (sv93467) dump valve issues!

    They seemed fine. No detritus dropped down in them, travel and spring good and bellows smooth. Didn't scrutinise them too much as the issue existed whether I had the push plate connected or not o_O

    They're air buttons (dual flush) and it happened whether or not they were connected via the pneumatic tubes. Ta for stepping in :)

    Anyone else had an issue with one of these? Ideal Standard 1.5 Dual Flush Valve (SV93467) First visit I cleaned up the base washer of limescale and reseated it. Fine for a week then started letting by again. So, new washer and clip, again... Started letting by. Ordered whole new valve and...
