    Vitra dual flush toilet constantly running

    Bit of advice please. I'm trying to remove and clean the flush valve washer as I suspect it's either worn or needs a clean. (Toilet is not filling and emptying water straight out into the bowl). However, from reading a post on here it appears that I may have to give the unit a 90 degree turn to...

    I want to learn more about running heating systems on uncontrolled heat sources

    I have the basic NVQ2 level awareness of wood burning stoves and gravity systems, but sadly this is one of the C&G (Maskrey) Plumbing textbook sections that should have been used for lighting the fire. I could bore you with the specific situation with the bungalow, the existing woodburning...

    Domestic water pump keeps running, is that normal?

    My mum's house has poor water pressure, so she has a water pump fitted to boost the pressure when having showers. As far as I'm aware, it just comes on when there is a demand (i.e. Taps on, shower on etc.) Earlier today, I popped round to water her plants while she was out. I filled the...

    Running water in toilet pan until I lift the cistern lid

    Hi, I have running water into the toilet pan after flushing. It is not the overflow as the water level stops below the overflow. The water in the cistern does not start rising after flushing. That is until I lift the cistern lid off. Doing this immediately allows the water level to rise. Not...

    Would you REALLY always recommend running UFH constantly?

    Been adding UnderFloor Heating to my own house and it's running provisionally. Controls yet to be wired. Can't think of ideal system but this is the best I can think of myself: Since the UFH is auxiliary to a radiator (theoretically not enough output from UFH to hold its own in cold weather)...

    honywell 3 port valve running hot

    just replaced the motor because it was getting hot , new one does the same is this normal, as far as I can work out the motor has to keep running to keep the valve open because of the return spring, is this right, valve works okay with the motor or with the manual lever.
