cold

Hi, Hopefully someone can shine a light on this! I have a Triton Eden Concentric Mixer Shower (shown below). For some reason the temperature control becomes increasingly stiff as you turn to the cold range, and I need to "flick" it around with a bit of force to get colder water. This has been...

Background: I have an outhouse with its own cold feed (with own stopcock). The hot feed into the outhouse is provided via a combi boiler in the main house - and therefore is controlled by the stopcock on the cold feed to the house. Therefore, to totally isolate both hot and cold water in the...

Hi, everyone - I hope someone can point out the obvious thing that I'm sure I've overlooked. I have a DHW problem. I have a 210 litre indirect cylinder (Megaflo) with secondary circulation. There are 9 'drops' off the hot loop - all at the far end of the loop. Not all of the pipe run is...

If a conventional system is changed to a combi boiler and the twin boost pump and CWST have been left in and working would it be an issue that gas safe can get involved with ? The mains hot water and tank fed cold water was running through pump and because pump stopped working cold water...

Hi I am getting hot water through the cold tap, could this be a TMV problem? TIA

I am perilously close to losing my mind - so any help appreciated! About a month ago a vibrating sound started on our cold mains (copper pipes). This noise will often go on for 12-24 hours, always a loud rumbling sound that you can feel in the pipes. I am in a maisonette, and believe the cold...

Hello - I recently got a new Worcester Greenstar 30i 30kW Combi Boiler 7733600005 installed in my property. Previously I had a 37KW combi boiler but that was 10 years old. But my plumber said that 30KW combi boiler should be more than enoguh. The day this was installed, I also had my water...

If there anything else that is safe to use to bung the outlet of a cold water storage tank. Could do. With some bungs tomorrow but most places can only get. Hold of them next day. Thanks

😒😒😒 Hello there, we have a Bristan Bliss electric shower, yesterday morning it was working fine, my husband and my daughter both had a shower no problem. We had a plumber round to relocate our bath pipes and sink pipes & to fit the new toilet, ready for our new bath and sink to be fitted, but...

Please see the pics. I can not find the cold water shut off valve. Just trying to replace the tap in my bathroom and want to shut off the hot and cold water. Hot water is off now. The left valve on the pics is the hot one and logically the right should be cold one. Its just not turning...

Hi everyone, I am looking for advice as under my kitchen sink their are two pipes, the cold water feed and hot water feed, the hot water feed has a check valve/NRV fitted on the copper pipe (I am not sure which kind of valve it is but it has an arrow on it) but the cold water feed pipe doesn't...

If the bath top shower is used by turning on the cold tap first, then the hot supply, it will give a consistent short shower, but that is getting shorter day by day before it goes cold. If the hot is turned on first, then the cold, that will result in domestic supply going cold within a few...

Hello, I have a valiant boiler ecotec 824 that was service about 4 months ago but has suddenly had a problem where the hot water for either the shower or the taps will run hot but flick between being luke warm and hot. The pressure is ok at 1.6bar. The temperature on the rads is low but water...

The cold water storage tank in the loft has started to overflow. First post ever and not sure of my way around, I’ve listed my problem the way it happened My central heating system is a gas back boiler, been running fine for years. I usually use an electric immersion tank through the night on...

Hello again. I'm moving forward with my new-build project on, I need to plumb my 3 wet rooms up stairs, a downstairs loo and kitchen/utility. Due to lack of availability of a decent local plumber I'm doing the work myself. I wanted to use manifolds for hot and cold supplies. 22mm to feed the...

Hi, I have a Tre Mercati Bridge Sink Mixer Tap. The taps are screw down. The cold water tap leaks from the top when turned on (the water wells up around the top). When off it then still tends to leak a little. I've taken it apart but the O rings all appear to be OK. I've taken some photos and...
