Seems Famililar  |

After already using Collins Complete DIY manual for the past few years I had high hopes for this revamped book in the planning of my central heating system. Instead I found the plumbing section from the DIY manual stuck in a new cover with a few extra bits on underfloor and solar heating:(
As a reviewer of the previous version said Wickes leaflets are far more use to help you install central heating and you can download them now as well.

slightly misleading |

This is a very good book for tackling the everyday problems you can encounter with home plumbing. Unfortunately, if your after information on installing your own central heating system, theres not enough info on on the pipe layout and planning etc. but overall this is a handy book to have around the house.

Plumbing - Heating and Gas Installations  |
I bought this book to learn a lot more about plumbing and I was not disappointed with what I had bought. It is more about the how of plumbing rather than just techniques and tips. In other words it tells one all about how plumbing works in detail. There is a lot of theory including the calculations to decide on the correct radiator heat output to suit a particular room.As another reviewer has already stated, there are drawings rather than photos but for me it does not reduce the value of the book, instead it just reduces the price of the book - and thats not a bad thing. It would have been physically a more attractive book with good photos but dont let that put you off. The book is crammed with information which is well presented and straightforward to follow. If you are an aspiring plumber dont hesitate to get this book.
