    Safety Check on a Coalbrookdale fire?

    Has anyone recently done a LGSC at a house with a Coalbrookdale fire in it? What did you test? I know its not a gas appliance but it still burns solid fuel and produces CO2. Any insight would be good. Thanks.

    Have you tried one of these? The new Quick fit Flush valve.

    anyone tried one of these valves yet? I can't see the point of fitting a different drop valve in place of the one you have? Its saying you don't have to remove the cistern to fit? Interested in your views
