 Will get you out of a Jam, 2004-03-22
As a Carpenter, I've founds this book really useful. Any other chippy will know what I mean when I say I've been sick of waiting around on site for plumbers, who never turn up.Especially if i'm fitting a kitchen. If your a willing to have a go, this is the book for you.
It isn't full of boring crap that you already know or don't need to know. It just gives you the basic " this goes here and that goes there ". If you've got a few plumbing tools and half a brain your laughing. It's the best 7 quid I've spent in ages.
 Already featured elsewhere, 2005-09-09
I bought this hoping that it would expand on the General Collins DIY manual that I already own. It doesn't and it features much of the text / diagrams of said book.
 Not sure about 'Complete Plumbing and Central Heating' .., 2005-01-13
but for the basics in Plumbing/Central Heating it's a must!
I always stayed well clear of water in the home but since buying the book i've drained my Central Heating system, removed and replaced radiators, used capillary & compression fittings etc.
The book offers clear pictures / diagrams and explains each procedure well.
Handy but doesn't quite do everything it says on the tin, 2004-06-03
This is very handy guide to plumbing but it's not a 'complete guide' to central heating. If you're tackling a central heating installation you'll need other reference sources as well (good luck on finding the latest information on installing a full combi system!). The contents are well laid out and illustrated, they are also repeated page for page as a chapter in the hard backed "Collins Complete Guide to DIY". If you're only interested in plumbing (and basic heating) buy this book. If you're a general DIY-er spend the extra tenner on the Complete Guide to DIY - you won't regret it.
Collins Complete Plumbing & Central Heating, 2004-09-15
This book doesn't quite give the information I bought it for - my own fault maybe! Certainly, it is NOT the complete plumbing & central heating guide. It doesn't tell you how to install central heating, and should only be seen as a basic guide to the world of plumbing. If you are looking to save yourself a few quid on the odd-jobs around the house, maybe this is your book. However, if you want to tackle a bigger project, look at other sources of information.
