In detail

Why both at once

The lamp is due every 9 000 hours, which is a year. The sleeve comes out at the same service to be cleaned, and that is when it cracks or chips at the open end, usually on a Sunday. With both in the box the service happens once, the chamber is sealed with new O-rings, and the unit goes back to the dose it was sized for.

Fitting, fifteen minutes

  1. Switch off at the plug and let the lamp cool for ten minutes. Close the bypass or the stop tap and open a tap to drop the pressure.
  2. Unscrew the gland nut, unplug the connector and draw the old lamp out by its ceramic base.
  3. Draw the old sleeve out, fit the new O-rings on the new sleeve and slide it home.
  4. Plug the connector onto the new lamp, holding it by the base only, slide it into the sleeve and tighten the gland nut by hand.
  5. Open the water, check for drips, switch on. Never look at the lit lamp.
