Hello,
Can anybody tell me what the engineer is required to check in the process of doing an annual gas/boiler safety check?
Is there a specific mandatory checklist or process to follow?
The boiler is a Worcester Greenstar HE installed on the kitchen wall.
Thanks,
Mark
I'm fitting a Strom electric combi boiler. Just wondered where would be the best location? It's an old place and has a nackered oil boiler in the kitchen. Once I've removed the oil boiler should i site the combi roughly in the same place??
Thanks

The pressure in my combi boiler (oil fired) seems to vary hugely.
When the heating is on it is at about 1 bar.
When the heating is off it can be as low a zero but then rises to 1 bar a few minutes after the heating comes on.
Other than this everything seems to be fine; both the heating and...

Looking for some detail on the possibility of replacing a Heat Only Boiler for a Combi boiler in a Conservatory. I can't find too much information on regs etc. Only thing i keep seeing is about a separate Stat/Zone for any Rads in the Conservatory. Thanks
Hi,
I want to install electric combi boiler in my holiday home. It's a 2-bed cottage that will have 1 bath and underfloor heating.
Ideally, I would like direct system and compact boiler. The space is an issue, so I would prefer something without a water cylinder, unless it's a bad idea.

Hello, recently my central heating stopped working and an engineer diagnosed the problem as being that the electrical connection point on the heating pump has partially melted, presumably due to the connection being poor. The pump is inside the boiler body. He recommended replacing the pump and...

My boiler is an Ideal Icos HE30 boiler. This supplies the central heating and a separate heat store - in other words a big cylinder - for domestic hot water.
It is not a combi boiler.
The boiler is 10 years old and it has been serviced by the original installer each year since installation. It...
Hi all
I just had a conversation with a heating engineer and he did not want to install my requested boiler (Worcester 50kw combi boiler) saying he would only install a 25kw or 30kw boiler
The reason I would like a 50kw boiler is the flow rate 20 l/min. He recommend a pressure relief value but...
Hi guys, so I have an ‘Exclusive’ combi boiler and for a month or two we’ve noticed it’ll sometimes make a rumbling/growling sound when in use. I’ve put a link below to a short video that shows the sound m
