PHEX shows - do you attend?

[steveafoss]

Yes remeha t-shirt all sweets were eaten during day also got a pedometer. Most say though the disappointment of the day was the Buffet.......... Mash and pie in a box but not very good

 

[Destroyer2813]

But I got 2 thsirts , I weren't impressed by the buffet either

 

[Rodolphe]

The food was TERRIBLE. I know I'm French, but still.

Has anyone of you used that self-plugging isolating valve they were demonstrating? Can't remember the name of the company now, of course, nor can I be bothered looking in the 5 tons of papers I brought back.

 

[steveafoss]

yes i got one, it's called aladdin easy fit isolator

 

[Rodolphe]

That's the one. It looked like it might be real helpful in a pickle. I'm going to check at Ray's tomorrow see if they stock it

 

[steveafoss]

at the show it was £30 including the fitting tool, they said they are £38 without the tool (£8) - would be interested to see if that is right! it's a solid looking bit of kit

 

[Rodolphe]

Wouldn't you know, I'm such a cretin it didn't even occur to me that I could buy there and then !!!! I might just go back tomorrow just to pick one up, as I'll be in town anyway...

 

[Killy Bing]

I picked one up today too, for the 30 quid.
I've had it apart and had a look, pretty well built !!!

Shame due to the cost but when the time comes its going to be a life saver !!

surprisingly intergas new boilers look like they might turn into something half decent too !!!
the guy did mention they have just patented a new flue connection type that gets around "must have access to every joint" new bit of regs
10 metres regular flue up or horrizontal (with a 3.5 degree rise) and a twin flue option thats even further !!!

Don't think we do. I don't recognise the description, but I am up there tomorrow so will look out for it.

That would be the corner of the boys highchair :43:

 

[steveafoss]

Trouble is they only let you use one of the £10 plumfix vouchers (hope you do get away with using all of them) others can still use them though. Missed the Fluidmaster syphons though dooooooooh.......... mind you pleased with as you put it (poxy wilo backpack) will make a great xmas pressie for someone :santa_cheesy:

Just left PHEX, no freebies but saw lots of interesting stuff. Particularly impressed with the Aladdin valve. I spoke to their boss about stocking and arranging for some forum freebies, so watch this space!

I'm not taking all the credit for you becoming a forum sponsor - BUT

Yes, please get a couple samples to Abi so that she can sell me one. She looked crestfallen this morning when I asked for something she didn't have

 

[Ray Stafford]

There's a YouTube video if you search for Aladdin easyfit isolator which shows a demo. I can't see a catch ... In theory. Interested to see what it is like in a real life situation.

 

[Rodolphe]

Let's go burst a pipe at your place and try it out??

 

[Ray Stafford]

Ok first two samples I get, one goes to Bod and the other to Rodolphe. Not accepting any other requests until I have them on my desk.

Ray
