🚨 Make sure you scrape all the food off your plate 🍛 before washing it in the sink! 🧽 Rice 🍚 & noodles 🍜 are the worst for blocking sinks 😩 🗑️ Bin it first, then wash 🧽 🇨🇳 🇵🇰 🇧🇩 🇮🇳 🇱🇰 — you know what I’m talking about #KitchenTips #BlockedSink #LifeHack #StudentLife


“Should I be a gas engineer or an electrician?” ⚡️🔧 I get this question all the time in my DMs 💬 Help the youngers out 👇 Drop a comment and share your experience 🙌 #GasEngineer #Electrician #TradeTalk #UKTrades #Apprenticeship


Combi boiler in a 3-bed HMO? 🤔 Not ideal ❌ You’ll want a system boiler with a cylinder instead ✅ Combis struggle when multiple tenants use hot water at the same time 💧🏠 #HMOHeating #SystemBoiler #HeatingTips #PlumbingLife #SmartHeating


Who else loves getting paid Cash 💸 (especially when VAT registered) 🫣 😅 #VAT #Plumber #Tradesman #Memes #Haha


Fitting a Baxi 800 or 600? 🔧 Always fit the filling loop first before piping up the boiler — saves you loads of hassle later 👌🔥 Do it in the right order and you’ll thank yourself! 😎 #Baxi #BoilerTips #GasEngineer #PlumbingLife #Combiboiler


Sometimes you just got to nod and go with the flow so they call you back next year 😅 #tradesmemes #boilerrepair #funny #plumbertok #relatable


Job done ✅ immersion element replaced 🔧💧⚡ Could’ve been tricky, but smooth sailing this time 🙌 #FixIt #Plumbing #DIY #HotWater #Handy


Smart thermostats improve efficiency ⚡ Control heating & hot water from any device 📱🔥💧 Brands I’ve fitted: Hive, Tado, Honeywell, Danfoss, EPH 🔧 #SmartThermostat #HeatingEngineer #EnergyEfficiency #HeatingControl #PlumbingTips


Ticking or banging pipes when heating’s on? 🔥🔊 Support & secure pipework 🔧 Where pipes pass through or touch wood, sleeve them or wrap with felt/cloth 🪵➡️🧵 This stops expansion noise when heating runs ✅ #HeatingNoise #Pipework #RadiatorRepair #HeatingEngineer #Plumbing


You can flush microbore systems 🚿 but treat with caution ⚠️ Most don’t leak, but there’s always a chance 💧 If the system isn’t sealed (no gauge, no filling loop), it’s more problematic. Worst case—upgrade to 15mm pipe 🔧 #Microbore #HeatingEngineer #PlumbingTips #BlockedPipe


Radiator not heating due to blockage? 🔥 We lift floorboards 🔨, use a magnet 🧲 to find the blockage, cut before it ✂️, then re-pipe. Sometimes it’s best to run new pipework back to the 22mm feeds 🔧 #RadiatorRepair #HeatingEngineer #BlockedPipes #PlumbingSolutions #Pipework


Front panel of radiator not working? ❓ Likely full of air 💨 Open the bleed vent that’s not working, release air, top up boiler ➡️ radiator back on! 🔑 #RadiatorHack #HomeTips #DIYFix #HeatingHack #BoilerCare


New radiator not heating? 🤔 Might be on 15mm pipework instead of 22mm main feed 🔧 Or boiler too small for more rads! 🔥 #RadiatorHack #DIYFix #HeatingTips #BoilerCare #HomeHacks


System not balanced? ⚖️ Balancing = adjusting lockshield valves on return pipe 🔧 Restrict water on rads nearest boiler, open more on rads furthest away ➡️ even heat across the system! 🔥💧 #HeatingHack #RadiatorBalance #BoilerTips #PlumbingLife #HomeHacks


Radiator cold at the bottom? ❄️ Sludge & debris build-up! 🛑 Get it flushed & cleaned so heat flows properly again 🔥 #RadiatorFix #HeatingHack #DIYTips #BoilerCare #HomeHacks


How often to bleed radiators? ❓ No set rule — maybe 1–2x a year ✅ Best habit: touch your rads when heating’s on 👋 Top floor ones usually need bleeding 💨 #RadiatorBleed #HeatingHack #HomeTips #DIYFix #BoilerCare


If your radiator won’t heat up 🔥 the TRV pin might be stuck ⬇️. Gently tap it with a hammer 🛠️ until it pops up ⬆️ (don’t go as wild as I did 😂). #RadiatorFix #DIYHacks #HeatingTips #HomeDIY #BoilerCare


💡 Easiest way to stop your heating from turning on: 👉 Set boiler selector to hot water only 👉 Switch off timer ⏱️ 👉 Remove batteries from room thermostat 🔋 Simple tricks so no one can switch it back on! 😉🔥 #HeatingTips #EnergySaving #HomeHacks #WinterReady #GasEngineer
