Monarch Water Softener

Went out to service this machine. In good condition unfortunately the customer had never had a manual or any instructions so the unit had never been set correctly. We set it up gave it a service a now its working a treat. And using less salt

Water Filters on coffee machines

We use the wonderful everpure water filters to protect coffee machines. This unit uses two filters to protect  a cappacinno machine, a filter machine and a hot water machine. We also have a great new device that measures the water so that you only change the water when necessary. Give us a call.

Softi in the Basement

Took out another leaking MC250 and replaced it with our block salt soft seen here with a nice pile of salt. Even the hoses supplying the old MC250 leaked. Nice

Permutit Water Softener

We have seen alot of these recently. They are starting to over fill with water. We took this one a part as the customer had had enough of ' an unreliable softener'. We found broken valve springs, a cracked plate and worn out seals. No worth repairing. What a shame

Mr Foxy

I met this little fox by my van on a job. He was sunning himself.

Guess what pumps do not like hard water

Here is a 18 month pump that has seized up, a combination of a poor installation and dorsets hard water has let to its death. The new pump should last longer now it is plumbed in correctly with soft water.

A tight squeeze

This job required us to knock a hole in a wall

and then crawl through the dark and cobwebs under a bathroom

we then diverted the in coming water main and while we were there we discovered why the lady's shower didn't drain. 

as you can see the drain runs up hill which is never good.

So we cut the pipe cleaned it out and put on a new fitting, a quick test showed that the problem had gone.
