Product Description

Product Description
This handy book gives expert guidance on plumbing and heating - from unblocking a WC and mending a dripping tap to repairing a burst pipe and changing a central heating pump. Packed with practical information on tools and techniques, the guide also gives sensible advice on measures you can take to prevent problems occurring in the first place. A section on Understanding the System explains how your plumbing and central heating systems work with clear computer-generated 3-D diagrams. At-a-glance Security Check panels highlight the tasks you should carry out to keep your plumbing and heating in top working order while Fault Diagnosis panels pinpoint the source of common problems. The Maintenance and Repairs section gives detailed step-by-step instructions for all home plumbing and central heating repair and maintenance jobs, accompanied by full-colour photographs and diagrams showing all the latest DIY techniques. This book will give you the confidence and knowledge to tackle all plumbing jobs around the home for a fraction of the cost of a plumber's call-out fee.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay, however...., 17 April 2009
By Mr. J. Young - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It's a nicely packaged item. Clearly meant for use when water is around and built to last. Unfortunately, there's little new information here. It's pulled pretty much verbatim from the more comprehensive manual. So, the pros are that it's a more portable version of the weighty Readers Digest DIY book...the cons are that it's essentially the same. Those looking for more detail will be disappointed.

2.0 out of 5 stars Plumbing basics, 20 May 2009
By Mr. C. A. Stafford - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I though the book was a bit basic for what I required but having said that this would be a good book for somebody who knows nothing about plumbing in their home.
It was also a good book for bringing awareness of plumbing maintenance in your home ie those valves in the cupboard or under the sink that do need a to be looked at occaisionaly.
