    Isolating valve

    Is it good practice what I'm planning to do. I want to drain the central heating and then put 2 isolating valves on the flow and return in readiness for when I purchase another radiator and that way after doing a little bit of pipework I can just top the system up. I want to drain now while the...

    What valve is the flow

    Also, washing machine hoses could be an option because they are the same thread as my existing valves. I'll buy a 2 metre hose and attach to both valves and see what gets hot first as they'll only be on for a few seconds.

    What valve is the flow

    Hi all I removed a radiator off the wall and forgot to note what valve was the flow as I'll be replacing with a new radiator with a trv. Without putting back and re connecting how can I tell what pipe is the flow and what pipe is the return because I assume the trv goes on the flow. Btw both...

    Lux Heat Column Radiators?

    I'm contemplating treating the front room to some aluminium column rads. Looking on the justradiators site there's 1 that fits the bill at nearly 2 metres long. A company called Lux Heat makes the rad I'm interested in. Anyone heard of this make and are they ok?

    radiator warm at bottom

    My 2 radiators in the front room are hot at the top and barely warm at the bottom. Would it be because they are full off crap at the bottom or something else? A few years ago I noticed this and hosed the radiator but didn't see no sludge come out. One is a 6ft double and the other a 5ft double...

    As the title says. I've installed a belfast sink over the weekend and the waste just keeps leaking. Firstly I put plumbers mate under the waste and tightened the plastic lock nut.

    The 15mm pipe that goes into the bottom of my toilet cistern keeps leaking. The part that's leaking is where the metal fitting screws onto the plastic pipe that comes from the toilet.
