    UFH wiring

    cheers Shaun, so the micro switch of the 2 port for the UFH is used to start the manifold pump in this instance and also on the system I'm working on instead of just one zone like in your pic linking the actuators to the nest I'll have multiple room stats connecting to each individual actuator...

    Exactly, it's nonsense imo, it's got that feel good factor though as you're doing it I guess.

    Central heating cleaner

    2 weeks for x800 I think, honestly not that convinced on those cleaners, the info says its like 6.8ph iirc and that's not exactly strong. Maybe there's something else in it but I don't know. if you can leave it in for 2 weeks then I'm gonna assume whatever would start happening that's bad would...

    Any gotcha's to drain and refill a hotwater tank to replace 2 x immersion heaters?

    Unvented immersion Sod easy to undo compared to the older ones usually cos rely on rubber seal. Make sure you buy the correct type of immersions, the standard ones from screwfix are not the same thread size.

    New build house smell

    Stand by the kitchem sink and get somebody to let a full bath water run out or flush the toilet and run the basin, use the upstairs appliances, you should be able to hear if you listen to the plug hole of the kitchen sink gurgling or bubbling. New builds shouldn't have the need for anti vac...

    Pump Sizing

    Cheers, I spoke with them again today and laid it all out for them on the table, the potential bills from gas being 4 to 5x cheaper and whilst they were like yeah okay that's cool.. they still want electric. Honestly what more can I do? They don't want a gas boiler, period. There is no...

    Pump Sizing

    I have told them numerous times that it will be very expensive. I think I'm absolved to any blame at this point. 12kw should handle the rads no problem but yes the bill is going to be eye watering.

    Pump Sizing

    thanks for clearing that up, i wonder when i see insta photos of 2 magna 1's and a llh on a 5 bed house whether its overkill, now im starting to think yes, yes it is... that poor customers wallet.

    Pump Sizing

    it is madness, I turned the job down initially saying to get some quotes locally for a combi install, its cheaper etc but they came back and said "no, we want electric" I said okay, and here I am. Thanks for the recommendation you think ill need the 8m head? I tried dab pumps once, I don't...
