Simple eh? OK, i cant do plumbing, i thought it would be a nice simple job to replace the 2 knackered elements in my Immersion Heater, i mean even googling for it makes it sound simple :- ""Turn off the boiler and immersion heater and close the cold feed as described earlier. Switch off the power supply to the immersion. Open the hot taps to release water. At the base of the cylinder there will be a drain cock. Attach a length of hose to this with the aid of a jubilee clip if necessary. Run the hosepipe to an outside drain or sink/bath/WC at a lower level. Open the drain cock and the water will be released from the cylinder. "" I mean, how difficult does that sound, so once me and my brother had thought it was drained we started to remove the elements then out pi**ed the water all over the loft which dripped down into the bathroom. I was not happy. Did it all back up before too much drained out and have left it, its still weeping a little bit of water so ill need to get a plumber in, shall look in the yellow pages tommorrow morning. Still it was a fine end to a crap day, hope tommorrow is better, thats if i make it, theres a lovely bottle of whisky and a pack of paracetamol with my name on it....
