New Combi boiler and upstairs shower

Is that a euphemism for what I think you actually mean?

Filth !

I've given it a tap with a hammer

Nice way of staying (almost) on topic

Im concerned the seals may go soft if tapped too hard.

Unusual approach. I suppose if it solves the knocking and vibrations then fair enough.

No idea what's going through your mind Sid, but I think you're making up your own jokes as per.

My mind? How dare you make such a rash insinuation!!

OK having the old trusty boiler replaced this coming wednesday.

The old boiler heated water to an upstairs tank, so this will be being removed too.

Now heres the question for anyone in the know.

The upstairs shower basically worked with pressure from the water tank in the loft. Will this continue to work with a combi, which i believe is mains fed, or am I going to have to get a totally new shower system fitted? Its an overbath shower with a mixer tatap.

As long as the shower has a hot and cold inlet or supply it'll be fine.

Ps, if they find anything untoward in the tank in the loft, its nowt to do with me ☺👍

** and always said with a smile...

I put 'like' on that picture of the plumbers arse, then realised I'd better change 'like' to 'ha ha'.

As an update,

shower works really well, better than ever before, very powerful

Is the supply still coming off the block tap on the bath still, or has he fitted a bar (shower) on the wall ?

still from the block tap. Next project is to fit a thermostatically controlled one on the wall.

Right, to stop anyone accidentally scalding themselves ?
