I see what you mean, I've tried 3 so far, 3200, 4200 & 3700btu!
So him crimping a bypass pipe constitutes an auto bypass or have I had bodge it n scarper fit this system?
I haven't discovered one yet. Where's the most likely place for one?
Unless it's mid run on the 8mm then there isn't one, I'll just fit two lockshields on a rad . I'm sure the pre prepped unvented will have one, won't it?
One other question... Fitting a new 22mm pipe, hole in the beam or notches in the top? Which is most viable and professional?
Is it worth running 22mm to the bath hot tap from an unvented? Or is this overkill?

Aren`t bath taps 22mm rather than 15mm?
Aren`t bath taps 22mm rather than 15mm?
No idea, my last lot of surface mounted taps and overflow filler were 15mm...
Sure someone will advise you. Thought bath was 22 & basin 15mm
well 3/4 and 1/2 but your right
Talking pipe size not BSP tap size, but sure you knew that.
hoping you would spend a bit of time thinking wtf, cant pull the wool over your eyes
Can you chaps help please
I'm just working out where my 3 22mm pipes will enter the garage where the boiler and cylinder will be sited. I've looked into the calculations for notching and or drilling joints and trying to work out the best path. The rear of the garage is a simple breeze block so gather the boiler would have to be on the outside wall...
My question is, as the joist above the rear garage wall runs proud. It means that if I drop my pipes by notches, then they will enter the garage through the ceiling about 3-4 inch from the wall. Easily sorted with a few 90's, however I'm just wondering if that will hinder the flow much with it being so close to a few 90's so early on
Thanks Shaun, I can't see a way around it without hacking the joists and adding even more bends to get them beneath the joists, which I'd obviously like to avoid.
One thing on the joist calcs, it mentions minimum and maximum distance from the ends as to where you can notch. Is there any issues doing one big notch at Max depth (23mm) for two of the 22mm's? With a bit of underlay between them
I'll drop the pipes down in that case and let my plumber cut and put some copper 45's in to make it look neat and tidy.
What a mess. That soldered tee doesn't look good. Perhaps leaking
