HALL of SHAME PHOTo`s

[Barry98]

I know we all come across them but thought we could stick them all in one thread for everyone to see.

my first of many , was in a church hall and this was someones idea of capping the gas off.

 

[Whyme]

the silicone's a schoolboy error if i ever saw one.

 

[IDCHAPPY]

Not pipework related but the slogan was shameful:

:lol:

 

[Whyme]

To all heartless landlords " ferroli you made the right choice".

Nice use of electrical connectors on pop- up- waste rod.

also boxed in cistern with no top access in the same bathroom.

to be honest i would have no problem with what theyve done there some times you have to use a bit of ingenuity and to be fair it looks like its done the job for a fair time
agree that the cysten is pants but who knows what was there first or how much the plumber told the customer how stupid it was

Gas leak detected by BG. They suggested re pipe. I suggest it's the melted speed fit and flexible conn

High end spark too

[IDCHAPPY]

That's not a motorized valve head i see crammed in at the back there is it??

 

[Ermintrude]

Yes. It's the one I had to change, strip cylinder and pump!

 

[lame plumber]

Yes, tray butted up against porcelain tiles.

That wouldn't have been a problem if it was sealed properly though.

just seen this comment, made me laugh!

Condensate pipe, high level discharge, no soak away or lime chippings, but at least it terminates 500mm from the building.

Maybe plant a couple of hydrangeas and some heather for a nice blue and white bloom :wink:

Nice acidic soil = award winning blue flowered hydrangeas.

 

[tamz]

Unfortunately my hydrangeas have turned pink the last couple of years and they are too far away to run the condensate pipe out.
I'll just have to get the spade out and go get some peat :smile:

Btw. if they were near enough i WOULD run the condensate to them :lol:

You need to think out the box :wink:

 

[Whyme]

Apparently rhododendrons an azaleas love a bit of acidic water (so google tells me). Money maker, collect it and sell to the local garden center.

 

[Reg Man]

I normally just put ash off the wood burner around them, same result and loads of ash to complete the task.
