1) you know the pipe that comes out of the house - condesnse I believe - what can it exit into?

I have 2 pipes 1 - is the soil pipe and one is for surface water and 1 goes into a soakaway - can it go into either?


Can it connect straight into the black guttering type stuff or does it need to exit onto a grill type thing?

Any alternatives?


2) I know on a combi you cannot have a power shower. But I believe you can add a tank if you want. How much hassle is this? I currently have 'free access' to run pipes anywhere and access the empty loft.
 
from you query I would assume your not qualified to install a boiler and would advise you to seek help from someone who is locally, it will save you a lot of aggro in the future and money. If you are qualified, the mfi will detail in full what you can do with your condensate drain, not sure where yr coming from re "adding a tank though"
 
Hi

Yes I am not an installer. I have the queries as I am having some work done I am pre planning where pipes need to go as there will be onstacles etc in the way so am trying to deal with them now.
 
work with your installer, he will thank you and you'll not be charged extras to make good things you get wrong.

Hi guys, These sleeves cover 10mm PVC central heating pipes (see picture and ignore tape measure) and I believe this is what makes it possible for the 15mm nut and olive to attach to take the radiator valve. As you can see they are installed before nut and olive. I've ordered a black towel...

I have seen people speaking of this and others not understanding. I have a leak in my pipe coming from the main. Attaching a new 1/2" coupling to the 1/2" pipe (blue pipe) is a problem as the coupling is larger than the pipe although both are 1/2". Most people do not realize that there are...
