I have a insurance job to try and rescue a poorly installed quad shower the customer wants to save the tiling if possible and has a few spare so fingers crossed it may work , the loss adjuster allowed em £1500 that will just about cover materials. Kop

Whaaaaat a flexi waste connection kop :(
 
Went to replace a shower cartridge today and guy just mentioned the down stairs rads were cool and the upstairs hot .
Looked in cylinder cupboard and sees a open vented Y plan. with a 20 odd year old gruni.
I told guy its probably the pump , I went downstairs a while after and sees a Ariston system boiler with a pressure gauge saying1.5 bar . Me thinks something's amiss here.
 
Yep Mcalpine Shaunie to tight under there for my big mitts :p , merlyn stuff was decent to fit and the tray fitted nicely one sliding door was nice touch on the screen . Cheers Kop
 
As you asked, this week we are working on a request for 300mw of Solar Roof for a Middle East Contract. At first shot its £18m plus for the basic stuff. There are 3 people on this project plus the factoring people and Uk Government Dept Then Mike and I send it on for verification. Normally
Api 2006 operates an annual plan plus month to month projections. Most of our stuff is
basic plumbing and heating devices which we concieve, design, test, produce ..market
or sell. We have been at it 20 years most weeks are more normal. centralheatking
look up versatyle or VSolar on google if you want to see more chk
 
If the guy has finished fitting the new diesel heater Incl pipe, pump and filter and connected the new lpg gas oven and seperate hob then I`m playing at being a kitchen fitter and carpet layer. :)
