If Skids advice is followed, should any chemicals be used to either help clearly the rads or to help prevent the sludge build up?

[quote="plumbbob"]Combi boilers are high pressure and a mixer shower should work great providing you have good mains water connection. These type of showers can be connected directly to the feeds under the bath.[/quote]

Also, when I flush the toilet, sometimes a bit of toilet roll will still be there floating about... What course of action should I...

Toilet not flushing properly

Morning gents, When I flush my toilet it feels like there is no resistance through the handle and only a bit of water comes out. To get it to flush I have to flush the chain repeatedly as fast as I can about 20 times. And even then the water doesnt flush as strong as it used to. I disconnected the h...
