Change a radiator with communal heating
I want to change my passage radiator, we cut the water supply to the radiators, there was no running hot water and every radiator was off. We isolated the radiator that we wanted to take off. I'm on communal heating by the way, as we started to drain the water there was just loads coming out, we stopped at 2 buckets but more wanted to come, is this normal? Or have we done something wrong?
Overflow dripping
Why is the overflow still dripping constantly after the ball valve has been replaced twice.
Replacing open vent hot water cylinder
Hello, Would it be possible to replace an open vent hot water cylinder with a non vented one? Would the new one fix water pressure too, as hot water pressure is basically non existent? Thanks
Outdoor tap fitting
How much would it cost on average to install an outdoor tap on the side of the house the sink is?
No water coming out of the hot tap
The radiators weren't heating up properly. I bled the radiators (which didn't actually have any air in them, so were ok). I added some pressure (too much... so bled a radiator again till it was 1.4 bar (cold). Boiler played up so had to turn it off and on a few times. Heating was then able to come on (still only little heat so may possibly be sludge or something in radiators). Key thing, however, is that then, when I turned the hot tap on, nothing came out at all.... nor since. Pls can someone advise me! No hot water in during this cold snap is not fun. Particularly at the weekend! Thanks.
Daily rates for plumbing work
Whats the average daily rate for a plumber? Excluding copper / pex etc. To do some lets say re-routing of heating pipes to under the floor or decommission / re-route a radiator?
Leaking radiator
How do I turn off my radiator values to stop a leak?
Poor shower pressure
How can I increase the pressure in my 2nd floor shower as the tank is on the 1st floor. I was considering buying a pump but no idea where to install it. The 1st floor bathroom/shower has okay pressure but it's not what we're used to. The heating system isn't a combi boiler I don't think as it has a water tank, emersion switch and a boiler separate in the next closet. The heating system says 1.6-2 bar when off and on so not sure it's a pressure issue. The shower is tiled over and behind the wall so I maybe assume the pump goes in the attic space somewhere. Thanks in advance if anyone could shed some advice.
Horn sound when hot tap is turned on
We keep getting a horn like sound from the pipe when we turn on the hot taps in both upstairs bathroom (mostly from here on shower and sink) and in the kitchen sink. It happens when we first turn it on, and we have to turn the pressure down for it to stop and slowly turn it up and then it's fine we had the boiler serviced recently
