Second job was a toilet fill valve in the gents toilet for a restaurant and they said that their water bills are fairly high and then I noticed the urinals constantly filling and flushing and when I looked it had a cistermiser fitted but no petcock it was running fullbore into the cistern and this had not that long been fitted, so I popped a petcock on and a check valve which was also missing.  PB and his shuttle to the rescue. greensmilies-010 Surprised the feed pipe condensation hadn't had them on the phone earlier, thinking they had a leak. I've come across a few jobs we're they've failed to fit a petcock and just used a throttled down iso valve until it's just a dribble, don't know why cause it's not an expensive valve or difficult to fit. PB do you not find that strange the arm dropped off as I find the split pins are normally brass? Pleased you enjoyed your yoga and plumbing lesson in that tiny loft. The arm seems to of worn right through the pin battle, not seen that before.  |

They must do different versions then. The type I've fitted has the flow off most of the time, then opens for an adjustable short time when it senses someone in there either by movement sensor or water pressure imbalance. That makes sense to me dcox, you have a piss, then go wash your hands, the sensor senses the imbalance and switches on. |

To be the best you have to work with the best.
Plumberboy thinks he is good but in reality his skills are very low level, poor guidance when he was an apprentice obviously.
