Superb content as always Jimmy! Started following your channel in the last few weeks and it's already been inspirational for me as a plumbing DIYer! It's like chicken soup for the soul!!! Keep this great content going dude and stay 'Holding tight!'
Hi there… I’ve been using PTFE tape for over 40 years without issue. Until now. I’ve got grief fitting rad valves & 30mm extensions on a ladder towel rail. The male extension thread is only about 18-20mm. I’ve tried putting a normal amount PTFE, and also tried it with loads. Still weeps. I was thinking about trying jointing compound and PTFE together. Could you, or other subscribers suggest what brand of compound is recommend with the PTFE? Plan B is to bin the extensions, and lower the rail fractionally, but will give me unwanted holes in the wall panels. Thanks👍
Like the vids James. Here’s a question for you. I’ve been watching your videos about heating not working correctly. On your last video you cleaned out a Grundfos ups3 pump. Now, could you do a video explaining all the settings on the pump. Ie. Constant pressure verses proportional pressure? All the different speeds of the pump etc? There doesn’t seem to be anything anywhere about the different settings. If there is, they seem vague.
James over the decades it seems that most commercial plumbing has been formed in Black Malleable Iron or galvanised pipe. Was this used because it is more robust to external damage?
I have fitted several radiators in my house over the years, never had any form of training but there is one thing I have struggled with, and that is getting the pipe work to align properly. I know this sounds stupid but for me it's always been a pain especially when doing a straight rad. replacement to existing pipework. Any tips?
When’s the swimming pool playlist coming? I’ve been patiently waiting like a good little soldier since you stood next to the pool and announced a playlist was coming. Didn’t realise it was gonna be a 12 month wait. My legs are hurting from waiting man!

How is that rad gonna make any difference in a room of that size?😂
just a content for the channel
Dave Skellingthorpe has spoken everybody!
Everybody stop what you're doing, Dave has got an opinion!
It’s not about the size. Ask your mum.

It is a bum warmer

is this radiator to supplement the big ones ? or to be used when the big ones are off ?
Do you have a link or company who did your van racking?

3:40 "Lin-E-OSITY" is better. Ancient Genesis fan as well. What a legend!
Where can you get that awesome light you take up to the loft area?
What paste do you use on the threaded joints.
Next video please let's have your rendition of the FULL 23ish minutes of Supper's Ready😁😁
I think you need a longer ladder.
I love the 10ft high radiator in the kitchen with the TRV on top 🤣🤣
The best!
Great content 🎉 like as usual
Would you not fit some form of lagging on the pipework not just to retain heat but to prevent children burning themselves on it?
Rad is hot as as well?.
Na they need an odd burn .. won't do it again will ya 😂
The pipe work is only as hot as the radiator 😂 why dont you cover that up too...
Defeats the object sir 😂
Nice genesis reference
Was that a stat you removed above the rad?
When’s the swimming pool playlist coming?

😂 just waiting for the liner!
That room is massive for just one small rad… 😂
118 runs not out and the team sledger. SURELY?!
Doubled panel double convector rad! Sorry mate I’m S.A.D I know 😂
You didn’t put the notice board back on the wall. 🤣
Can store a pencil in there .. Or a reefaa 😂😂😂
Do customers ever request CHROME pipes for exposed sections?
You are completely mental. But in a good way!
I only watched for the singing. Knee pads James, knee pads.
Good point! I’ll get three to muffle the singing!
Some of the comments on here are fuckin biblical 😂
James i don’t know how you cope with the bellend brigade 😂
That self setting spanner is a gamechanger.
Not really it’s just a spanner
Ratcheting spanners have been around a while. I remember buying one from Lidl. It's hiding in one of my toolboxes I hope.
You stole the idea to get the same type of wrench from mmplumber channel 😅
Cowboy! No finesse!
Ye haw son,👦
Dad, can you stop trolling my TH-cam! 😂
