  1. Rip those tiles off the wall and do it again !!
  2. He has his own brand of wipes ??
  3. Actually 3 of each . On my manifold I purposely keep one there which I never remove - for emergencies you understand!!
  4. I bought them all Usually 1. is the best . But sometimes the git just won’t come out so I use 3. the metal ones . They aren’t expensive so buy at least 2 of each size you’ll need ( 2 because you’ll lose 1 )
  5. I think you worry too much how concealed pipework / wiring looks . I’ve said before a plumber etc. may have professional pride on it looking neat . I don’t 😁 . Also as I’m making it up as I go along lots of things change - there’s no plan . What does matter is of course the finish ; the tiling , decorating , etc. etc. - all the nice bits SWMBO likes .
  6. Fair enough . If you get black tiger on your nails you are stuffed . Must be time for Hep2o now ?
  7. Push fit is Barbie doll plumbing . Real men risk it with solvent weld . The smell , the mess , the swearing …
  8. Colours don’t match so still not right
  9. And what’s wrong with this photo ?
  10. That’s poo ! Zen does seem to swap quite easily . I walk around doing Speedtest wirelessly . So right next to an AP great speed . As I walk further away it naturally starts dropping off . As approach a ‘better’ AP it swaps to it and speed picks up . Can see my MAC address swap between nodes . I would imagine ( hope) orbi *should* be doing the same !!
  11. I think it depends Zen has 2 5Ghz channels - you can nominate one as a back channel for its comms . So nodes wirelessly can be further apart . Even without wired access the range is pretty good considering concrete / steel are in the way .
  12. Looked into this before . Tried the default “ go to “ of ubiquiti . For the love of god couldn’t get those nodes to stay adopted . Sent that back Next tried netgear orbi ( around 300 quid ) not the 2k version . Good reviews . Useless in my experience. App would say it’s working whilst node would indicate it wasn’t . Then they’d swap ; app says no , node says yes . Sent that back ASUS Zen ….. perfection ! . Ethernet backhaul - stable mesh . Joy ! Whilst it’s within my technical field to tinker with this I really did want an out the box working option . Ethernet backhaul was a bit strange as it wouldn’t work if going through my unmanaged switch . Direct to ‘main’ zen - all good . Nice app aswell ; lots of features . Plan on throttling swmbo’s connection down just for my amusement.
  13. Yeah ! Quoting union (expletive deleted)ing rules ! . Intimidation and insults are your new friends .
  14. Sack him !!!
  15. Fussy (expletive deleted)
  16. Run the 15mm pipe . Stick the shower on the end pointing into a bucket . You’ll see the result for real . All this blended BS is 💩; so I have to wait 8 seconds for my shower to get hot from the uvc - who cares .
  17. Must admit I didn’t bother with any of that . I had a new water main put in ( assume you did also ) . Instantly I could see how much better the water pressure was ( we used to live next door to the plot and water pressure was ok ish - old pipework )
  18. My shower is around 16m away from manifold . 15mm pipe no issue
  19. 15mm everywhere . That’s means you purchase one lot of pipe and fittings . Easier if it’s all one size and (expletive deleted) anyone else who says different. I’ve built an entire house on 15mm ( as advised on this forum ) so why change . THERE ! I’m right again .
  20. My most favourite shit shop ( after Primark )
  21. My pipes go where ever the (expletive deleted) they want . Does it effect the size of my penis ? No .
  22. Saniflo Compact is very quiet
  23. I know . I’m a qualified plumb (h) er and no one listens .
  24. 9mm and Climafkex . The heat loss even over 20m is low but I still think worth it .
