    Beware the misread label!

    We are currently having issues with ionisation probes (supposedly) on a pair of large commercial boilers at a site. While discussing possible causes (not that we are too concerned as this issue has been dropped back in the lap of the manufacturers who commissioned them) I got to thinking of...

    The importance of polarity

    Talking with one of the guys in the office about a mysterious boiler fault (runs, ignites, locks out) reminded me of an issue in a new boiler room some years ago. Three new gas boilers all installed at the same time, due to handover to client but one boiler kept locking out. It would go through...

    Unvented cylinder parts needed?

    I'm looking at specifying a 300 ltr unvented cylinder for a house extension. Due to incoming water pressure problems they are putting a storage tank in the roof with a variable speed boost pumpset to feed the cylinder and cold water to the bathrooms. The cylinder schematics show the usual 3Bar...
