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 ÂŁ1500 that will just about cover materials. Kop

I have used it but it’s quite pricey.
I arrived with 3m of 22mm coated copper.
It was supposed to be a straight run and a chase made for me.

No chase, the island had moved and I don’t have another free day so I had to make it fit.
I used insulation as an extra layer of protection as the floor may be levelled with latex.

Definitely pricey but worth its weight. Just needs clipping otherwise it rises in the screed

Very neat Scott. Is that the 10l and do you use 2 or 3 kW version?
I go for 2 as I live in hard water area and, maybe wrongly, think they last longer than the 3kW.

Also, have you binned the dielectric couplings?

Was a bit of a crazy job.
Another plumber had first fixed and mounted the heaters and got everything ready, then not turned up to pipe them up.
Got called in on Friday to finish them as the school opens on Monday.
One of the 8 didn’t work out of the box

Yep
Can only hope they bend a pipe enough that water pees out all over them and they cant ignore it.

Somehow they managed to raise my soil pipe by 23mm even tho it was clipped / braced so hammer time today :D was 205 after the tiling

After recovering from the cronovirus we managed to get away on holiday I took a private PCR test to make sure I was clear before we committed and also antibody test it turns out I've got antibodies in my blood from a previous infection so all in all I've had it in the past been double jabbed and still got the delta variant although I soon got over it .
