Onoff Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 @pocster what size Sigma frame did you go for? Flush plates for the 12cm can be had new for £35: https://www.tradingdepot.co.uk/geberit-sigma01-dual-flush-plate-gloss-chrome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterW Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 The only caveat on mixing whiteware is that white isn’t always white ..! Worth choosing a brand and sticking to it for WC and basin if they are going to be side by side. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pocster Posted September 30, 2019 Author Share Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) Ok - more questions . Once ASHP is in assume I effectively have a hot and cold supply . Do I just connect these ‘mains in’ to Hep2o manifolds ? Then run 1 hot or cold pipe to every source ? If so should I run 15 or 22mm from manifolds ? How do the manifolds join together ? As I’m going to need a lot ! I see some manifolds are copper hep2o others just plastic and cheaper - does it matter ??

Pocster Posted October 3, 2019 Author Share Posted October 3, 2019 Was looking at https://www.wetrooms-online.com/ for the walk in shower - any other recommendations or suggestions; any particular brands ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocster Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 Schlüter stuff seems recommended with a nice price tag of course . So ! walk in shower form tray water proof kit ( presumably de coupling tile sheet goes ontop this ) Aquapanel or similar board for the walls ( should I use this on the ceiling also ) ?? Sounds easy (ish) enough - not sure why @Onoffmade such a meal of it ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pocster Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 I obviously did a secret under the table deal with admin to provide content for the site . They requested threads on my attempts at bathrooms , kitchens etc. - even just screwing 2 bits of wood together relatively straight . As @PeterW said in his private message to me ” What’s Netflix without content ? ; it’s nothing . Membership to the site has increased because of your and @Onoff‘s benign efforts at workmanship. As you know once we reach our target membership our intentions are to sell the site whilst paying you our agreed percentage for your efforts . It would be of great benefit if you could f’up some more glazing , leaky toilets or just do something really stupid like extend your underground utopia .

Presumably one blows it out with an air hose once every 5 years. At which point you notice how greyer your downstairs hair is than it was 5 years ago, and Mrs Pocster has a good giggle.
