Haha I'll try not to.. So I'm having to run pipes along the joist rather then across, is it best Tijuana clip them to the side, flow above return?

Tbh it doesn't matter which ever is easier for you or you can fit timbers and run them in the centre of the joists if you have space (cross brace the joists)

Ok cool.. That's what they did before (cross brace) so I'll just run it the same way. They just rested the pipes on the cross, do I not need to clip them?

Yea need to clip them something like every 6' ish

I take it this is cross beam? Most of pipework is 8mm :/

 

[ShaunCorbs]

In a way yes but mean more like this



See the timber on the bottom of the pic with hair felt on like that for anything like 15-22mm if using 8-10mm just clip it on the side of the joists

Ah ok... I'll see in the morning what route I'll take.. Thanks Shaun

Last question, sorry, why is it you put felt at each joist/clip??

Not a problem Stop noise and allow for expansion (no squeaks when heating up of solid pipes eg 15-22mm etc)

Ah ok.. I've got to run the heating pipe above the boiler and the gas/water below, it's gonna look a bit pooh with a filter above the boiler :/ also makes a filling loop a bit of a challenge - think I'll have to have a rethink in the morning

Use there internal filling loop new design should come with the boiler

Only on the cdi's you get a loop with the boiler

 

[jaydebruyne]

I'll see if PlumbCenter has it in stock - fingers crossed

 

[mfgs]

It doesn't come with the boiler, but just buy an internal one.

You sure I'm sure they new keyless one came with the new junior Is ?

If you get stuck I've got plenty of the old type if you want one ( the key ones)

Just got a keyless one.. Cheers though mate.

Progress report: boilers hung boiler, removed rest of redundant pipework, started piping up main run

I'm slow with pipework so I'm running behind now - tomorrow is my last full day to get everything done :/

A off cut of 22 fits nicely to allow you to fill up by yourself without it going mad when you get round to filling up

 

[ShaunCorbs]

looks fine jay who drilled the flue hole wrong

and you do know the filter could be put inline ? (didnt need to use the pieces of pipe that come with it)

Haha though I'd put in some natural draft ventilation!!

I'm stuck on something: 5th picture down. I've got to tee off to the notched joist to run it along towards the wall but it's clipped so close - not sure how to get round this???

 

[ShaunCorbs]

this one jay?



would do it like this if i understand right
