Thanks for the support as always mate

Thanks for the Amazing support as always Steve, have a great weekend mate

Thanks mate, I really appreciate the support

Hi Peter, Thanks for the support, I am doing well, hope you are too, stay safe mate

Philmac are the best fittings for underground pipework in my opinion, Working live can save a lot of time and not having to disturb the water supply to the factory was my main concern on this job, keeps you on your toes though and with water you only get wet, thanks for the support mate, I really appreciate it

It's just my luck that is, thanks for watching Paul

Thanks for watching as always mate, have a great weekend

Thanks mate, I really appreciate the support

Thanks mate, I appreciate the Fantastic support as always

Thanks for the support as always mate

Thanks mate, I really appreciate the support

Thanks mate, would have been nicer with a little more pressure behind to make it look more dramatic. I appreciate the support, have a great weekend

Thanks mate, I have a squeeze off tool but for the life of me couldn't find it, it will no doubt turn up when I'm not looking for it. Thanks for watching, have a great weekend

Hi mate, for benders PB did a video on the bender he uses, there is a company called bend it now who have the moulds for the original hilmor (I think) benders, these should last your whole career. Pipe slices are hit and miss, I use today tools ones and they are decent for the price and last a good while. On an outside tap the service valve should be first, then the double check valve, positioned inside the building, then a drain off tap, then through the wall to the tap. If you can drain through the tap a drain off is not essential

@@PlumbLikeTom ok mate thanks , keep up the vids , it’s helping me a lot , for when I become a plumbers mate , I’m already dreading getting the Sani flow jobs hahah

Thanks mate, I've got a few interesting jobs coming up in the next couple of weeks, I have a job with some 6inch fusion welding to do which will be good if I'm allowed to film it, I really appreciate the support, thanks for watching

@@PlumbLikeTom You’re clearly a well rounded man. Learning a lot even though I’m a Gas Engineer/Plumber myself. Great to see the day to day grind. Looking forward to the next one. Also, you getting shot straight in the face with the snatch was priceless.

Thanks Tommy, have a great weekend mate

Sometimes, is really does depend on the job and the situation, like you say if there is a risk of disturbing a crispy cylinder it might be safer to change the head or the guts. Also when valves are placed in impossible positions with no movement on the pipe this can be the sensible and only option. This job is was as quick to change the entire valve though, thanks for watching mate 👍

Hi mate, Honeywell have been my go to valves over the years, the valve that I replaced in this video was probably 15 plus years old, you can identify the newer heads because they have the earth strap to the lid. I think Mark was just unlucky because Honeywell valves are normally extremely reliable and asking at my local suppliers they have yet to have any come back under warranty. We will have to wait and see what happens but Honeywell do sell a lot of valves and if there is an issue they will rectify extremely quickly

@@PlumbLikeTom Honeywell always been my first choose too but have heard of lots of problems over recent times....... I have switched over to Drayton for the time being and they seem sound enough. How do you rate the ESI head? I have no experience of them but like the fact they will go straight onto a H/well body with the adapter and no need to drain.

@@julianhawker7672 Honeywell definitely seem to have change their valves. When you buy the unvented cylinders they come with the white lids, I wonder if they were experimenting with different components on these valves before changing them all, just a theory, might be completely wrong. The ESI valves seem OK, when I get my underfloor manifolds these are supplied, thats why I had this in the van, not had any problems with them so far but time will tell

@@julianhawker7672 I think all zone valves are not built like they used to be as the more that fail the more work there is for everyone!! The most reliable we use seem to be EPH at the moment.

Great shout mate, its not the thing I carry in the van but it would have been perfect for this job. Thanks for watching mate, have a great weekend

Don't say that, I hope this one will be OK. I normally fit honeywell's but I only had an ESI in the van, they come with the underfloor manifolds I buy and so far not had any problems with them. Thanks for watching mate

.... there's one new build site where Persimmons have fitted loads. Most of them have leaked. I think they come with a 5yr warranty. Thanks for your content Tom always interesting ☺

@@benregler9872 I went to one last week 5 year old house leaking through the spindle. new to me

I would have liked a bit more behind it for more drama but you can only work with what you've got, thanks for watching mate 👍

@@PlumbLikeTom would of been funny for us, but at time, i would of been like FML what am i doing. Ive done it once and il never do it again. Defo crimp it from now on haha

Thanks for watching as always John, I've had to replace a few buzzing honeywell valves, you never used to seem to have to change any for that reason, the quality has gone down a bit

Hi mate, the Huk1 bib taps should only be used to replace existing and should not really be fitted from new, the check valve should be located within the thermal envelope of the building. I only did my best on this job as I realise the pipe on the outside is not ideal but the check valve is less likely to freeze inside because the cabin is heated, the container company were happy to have a tap fitted and we will leave it there for the next contractor, thanks for watching mate

The pressure is really poor on that site in the day, was hoping for a bit more to make it more dramatic but you can only work with what you've got, next one ill make sure its 3bar plus, thanks for watching

@@PlumbLikeTom nice I’m sick of seeing bunged systems getting snatched lol

Hi mate, hope you are doing well, have a great day

Hi Sam, I've got one some where but for the life of me I couldn't find it, no doubt it will turn up when I'm looking for something else. Like you say they can get you out the muck because with plumbing you never know what your walking into on a job, thanks for watching mate 👍

The pressure on that site is really poor in the day, was hoping for a bit more water to make it more dramatic but you can only work with what you've got, next one I do I'll make sure its 3bar plus, thanks for watching mate

@@PlumbLikeTom yeah with the vid title and pressures I've seen. I expected you to get a real good soaking. Love your videos

@@bovnet Thanks mate, sorry I didn't get wetter👍
