shower

Hi all, I'm thinking of making another wetroom, but this time - because we've a cement floor and stone and block walls, because I hate tiling so much, and because I get bored easily, I'm thinking of using some kind of render for the walls and floor, possibly coloured, possibly with stones or...

tl;dr: Why install RF36 instead of HRE36 or Ideal Logic+ 35? How does weather comp/new thermostat differ to boiler's internal modulation? Is a non-pumped gravity shower acceptable (better than an 8kw electric) upstairs even with very old slow recovery HWC, or just go combi at 13lpm in small...

I have a shower head that comes vertically down out of the ceiling. It's fed from a long pipe run above and to the left of it, sadly this means that when the shower is turned off the water is siphoned from the pipe (drawing the water off because the shower head is lower than the lateral pipe...

hi all, We have a detached garage which I want to install an electric shower to wash the dogs in using a huge (old school art room) Belfast sink which we are putting in. Grey water is sorted as going into nearby drain. We have installed 25mm mdpe pipe 800mm underground insulated in 110mm pipe...

Can anyone identify these shower door hinges please? Google doesn't know, and local bathroom and plumbing shops have no idea. I've looked for a manufacturer's mark, but seen anything. Please help!

Dear all, Does anyone know an alternative to silicone sealant (to run around the sides of a bath)? I have now applied on several occasions silicone sealant of varying brands and seemingly none last very long. Either black mould appears, despite being applied very smoothly and neatly, or small...

I'm replacing a bath with a shower in my ensuite. I've exposed two 22mm H/C pipes which previously fed the bath and the ensuite basin. These will eventually feed the shower and basin (nothing else). The shower I'm trying to fit - a Mira Atom ERD - requests 1/2 BSP inputs which it then converts...

Just moved and can't find instructions tried the net. Anyone tell me how how to turn off the temperature lock on Heatstore auto thermostatic shower. Or where to find manual. Thanks

I have one of those l-shaped bath screens to fit my l-shaped bath. I've sealed the screen as per the manufacturer's instructions and have replaced the sealing strip at the bottom of each pane of glass. Unfortunately, it still leaks at the point circled in red on the below picture (where the...

Hi All. We have a Bristan Shower in our en-suit which over the last year or so has become more and more difficult to turn off. When new, the water shut off with the handle at the 12 o'clock position but now you have to turn it, quite forcibly, to about the 2 o'clock position to get it off...

Firstly, I am new to this forum so please forgive me if this topic has been done to death. Secondly, I am Lucifer's gift to DIY, I once sawed through the rafter I was stood on! I have a Triton shower and have had it for a while so no warranty etc. however it has been working fine until last...

(I hope this query comes under the appropriate category - ie plumbing) ============================================= What has started as, and should be, a simple fix up job has not proved to turn into a troublesome. We have a shower head fixed to the bathroom wall as per photos: First...

Hi - looking to replace a wall-fixed shower head. Immediately running into some issues: It is +10yrs old and is likely discontinued, although someone has mentioned it may be a Grohe. I have approached Grohe my contact says he has never seen it before. - any ideas of the brand will help...

I am trying to find a replacement for my shower which will fit without needing to modify the pipework. It's an unusual kind where the input pipes come from below, parallel to the wall, rather than being inside the wall. Does anyone know where I might find a replacement, or what words I can use...

Hi, My electric shower packed in and I was able to find a replacement 'shower engine' online for it, unfortunately it seems like some type of pushfit elbow was used to connect the shower originally. Could someone please tell me if the connection between the shower and elbow can be disconnected...

Hi, Probably this is a common question but i couldn't easily find the answer. Shower being built in corner of two stud walls. Studding doesn't line up with chosen shower size for a secure fixing for the glass support track. I "was" going to put green plasterboard for the walls and tile over...

Hi all, I'll start by saying that I'm not a plumber/electrician so I don't know which category this falls under as I don't even know what the problem is. Anyway... I've got a Mira Advance ATL Thermostatic Shower. It's roughly 3-4 years old. My memory fails me. However, last week it started...

Hi My mother in law had a power shower and it was with a single hot water pump and the pump was installed on the feed just before the mixer tap and the cold was from the mains, so not near hot tank on the supply to the whole house just by the hot water supply pipe to shower mixer, there was a...

I am having issues mounting a handheld shower adaptor. Essentially the threaded male water connector for the handheld shower is not as long as that of the fixed shower (see photo below - the handheld shower adaptor is the shorter thread). This means that I do not have enough thread to...
