Deffo a duff flow sensor unit - will order new in the morning.

Hi Ho, Hi Ho, its off to work I go............

Hi Dave - Yep, the water is flowing well. I have in the past hour done the following: Drained all the water and blown through the pipes to clear water that will not drain under gravity.

It worked perfectly OK when the engineer instal...

Extend the aircone closer to the job and get about 30 psi of wind Carl, will mean getting a modded aircone made up but worth it the key to cutting HIPS is to be able to blast away all the melt before it creeps back. YIKES!!! Now you've got me!!! Aircone? I assume that is the black plastic bit that ...
