Question for a plumber

Recommended Posts

I have a question for a plumber:

When my shower is turned on, the radiator downstairs heats up. I presume therefore that water is passing through my radiators to get to my shower. Is this normal?


I had a new kitchen installed a few years ago. Pressure has been bad last few years and I wonder if something was fiddled with then?


Thanks!

in a word no . get them back as they have supplied hot water from flow from boiler. boiler has cold feed in and hot water out and a flow and return . .if electric shower then as boiler cold in and the shower unit would heat the water out .

    • Rather than have a go at Southwark,  contact them, they will employ at least one arborist who will know far more than most people on this site. Here's one: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shaun-murphy-morris-03b7b665/?originalSubdomain=uk
    • I would look in the surrounding area as once they realise it has nothing they could sell or of obvious monatary value in it they'll dump the bag and contents.
    • Not in mine either if I knew they were there 🤣
    • Trees, eh? I feel your pain, EDP, but I like the light provided by the pollarding. I'm interested in the gingko, tho.  I love a tree, me - Hillsboro Rd has lost about five over the last 20 years (2x lime, cherry, strawberry, and, er...). The council did take down about 5 ill original lime trees behind our house but then gave us Golden Rain trees. God, if only we had known what a PITA they are. The main problems are massive invasive surface roots which have buggered up my back fence and paving, plus thousands of vigorously self-seeding offspring every year, which I go around pulling up before they turn into trees. And the leaves are tough things, like horse chestnuts, so don't rot easily. I hate them.  Wish they could have been something native and attractive, like birch or something... council isn't interested in helping.  Ah, well.
