i,ve just fitted a new toilet.when you flush the loo the boiler fires up.any ideas?
as the guy is going nuts.
 
Hi mrplumberman,

How did you get on today? I'm still in two minds if this is real or not but if you don't post again I'll take it that this is a wind up.

It's been a good read though. :tongue3:

I bet that looks great
You better hope it's not a bad winter again
Ps you need to change your user name
 
At the end of the day and I know your taking a bit of flak about this (rightly so LOL!) its a mistake and we all make them.

And to put things in perspective, no one has ever died because there was hot water going into the toilet.
 
too long to read it all ,I had it the same ! fitted combi and toilet cistern nice and worm ! boiler kicking on every time some one uses the loo ! told customer to change faulty mixer in bathroom wash basin ! he could not be bothered to pay for it ,I told him if you do not fix it ,in the event of fault to boiler manufacture will invalidate policy ! any way check mixer tap or shower for cross flow

From earlier posts you indicates that this property wasn't on ground floor, with your spiel about lady downstairs having no water since you removed the cwsc, now you've cored a hole and tee'd into outside tap?? it gets better and better
 
i bet she's on a meter downstairs as well lol and you've gone and connected upstairs bog to her supply. while leaving her without a tank fed supply

thats jolly decent of you!

i take it that mr plumberman is an aspiration rather than an acomplishment.

also in the posts there is reference to a 'we' my god there is more than one that is this inept. is the ink dry on yer certificates yet?

please tell me your remedy is a wind up, your old tradesman must be so chuffed he taught you so well
 
I knew it had to be a wind up! No one is that stupid!

You can just imagine a 15mm Speedfit tee coming off the outside tap and up the side of the house, unclipped and probably through the bathroom window and into the cistern.

Going back Monday to lag it... ah hah!

seen from one of his previous posts that he done a 6 week fast track course and it was a piece of cake, but the eastern europeans in the class were struggling ???? I replied to the other post which was pretty much similar to this one, what a weirdo....I see he's from ayrshire, says it all lol !!
