i currently have an intergas boiler on an OV S plan setup. i want to add the intergas outside air temp sensor and cylinder temp sensor and then wire to suit the current 2 valve setup. any wiring plans or guides please.
If I’ve had a whole new flue fitted to my boiler and going outside through wall. Should the engineer fit a new outside terminal as well. Or is this not needed?
I have this outside tap and a while ago it stopped turning off completely. The water almost stops flowing but then it'll click and the water is back to full pressure, no matter how much you turn the tap to the off position, it just keeps spinning. As you can see from the photo, I've had to put a...
As the title suggests i'd like to install an outside tap. I've only got 1 location for it really but i just wanted to know how difficult it will be? Because it's the right weather to have one fitted and having a hose is easier for certain tasks instead of using a watering can all the time. I...
Hi there what’s the recommendations( also the type of insulation) for laying pex boiler pipes outside underground. And how do account for expansion over the length of about 15 metres. Thank you.
Hi , I was going to install an outside light when i got onto leader i seen pipes cracked and cut , I’m not sure what these pipes are for and still in use. Does anyone know if they need to be replaced please? The crack is below light
We have an outside tap that is about 50 years old and has just literally exploded. (Fortunately, I had already fitted an isolation valve when we moved in.)
I am going to have to saw the tap off. This will leave too little copper pipe poking through the wall to fit a new tap. So I am going to...
Hi all,
Background situation… I’ve refit our new bathroom from scratch, re-located toilet waste, all new plumbing for wastes and supplies within floorboards etc and new shower valve pipe work etc chased in to internal wall.
So I have had to do a lot of research, and I’ve muddled along ok so...
Hi all
Got a very old looking outside tap at our house which is not in use. A plumber is visiting soon to do a bathroom refit, and whilst here will remove the tap and cap it off. I asked whether this would cause a problem with a "dead leg" and he said no, but I want to check with you guys...
Is there likely a blockage in the outside trapped gully if it occasionally frothes up with soap. The external trapped gully at floor level just takes a 32mm pipe from a wash hand basin. Thanks.
Hello. I worked on an oil boiler that when the outside door is closed the burner goes to lockout. When it is opened slightly it works perfectly. Has been working fine in same situation for 20 years. I replaced the gasket at the burner and replaced the fire board on heat exchanger access door...
Hello all,
We hope you are well.
We are looking for some drainage advice on a relatively new build property. The drain outside of the property constantly blocks with toilet paper and waste every 5-6 weeks of use.
Following the blockage we unblock by using hot water and essentially poking...
I had to call out an emergency plumber last week. My outside tap was leaking through its check value. The leak, then became a fine spray. I turned off the water, then 'phoned the plumber. He visited within 30mins with a new tap and replaced the old one. What would be the approx cost of his...
Hi all, I'm completely confused by my outside tap.
If I open it quarter of a turn, I get high pressure (as expected) but also high flow (I can fill a saucepan in about 5 seconds). If I continue to turn the tap, the flow suddenly slows to the point it takes about 25 seconds to fill the same...
I'm a DIY homeowner repacing an outside toilet pan to a salt glazed spigot in a concrete floor. My guess is to cut through the mortar surrounding the spigot and continue cutting through the spigot. What are the pitfalls and tips to assure a clean cut through the spigot. Further will a plastic...
Is there thermostat that can located internally that has a hot and cold hot feed(obviously) to control the temperature of the outside hot tap? In essence it would be like a shower control but is there any product specific to controlling the temperature of the outside hot tap?
Any comments or...
