    It starts to leak clear water when both hot water and central heating are running. I opened the sump cover, there was a puddle in there. I thought the condensation s-trap might be clogged. So I clear that out. It was fine for one night and the next morning, it started to leak again. Any...

    Would you replace an old Ideal FF360?

    I have an old FF360 I was thinking about replacing, but in the end it just does not seem economical. It is rated at 78% efficient, so I suppose a new boiler might be able to shave 10-15% off the gas bill, but would that realistically pay for itself? It looks like parts for the Ideal are still...

    Ideal Logic Combi 24. Water is perfect for bathing a baby but not for shaving.

    Good Evening from sunny Clevedon. Heat Exchange was changed 1 year and 13 days ago. I fitted a new no flow thermister, which I was told would be the main suspect but has made no difference. Any advice ? I have a big pan on the boil all the time for shaving and doing the washing up but I rather...

    Ideal Evomax 80

    Hi, I hope someone can help with my boiler. I have an Ideal Evomax 80 fitted in my house (which does seem like overkill). I've been told that this actually a commercial boiler and therefore is always on so that heat is always available on demand. Is there any way to turn this always on...

    Ideal Standard Dualux Bathroom Monobloc Taps

    Back in the 1980's we bought a few of the above which have ceramic disc cartridges.

    water pressure and flow..what's the ideal combination

    Water pressure static is 8bar. Working pressure (if that's the term) is 6bar. Flow rate from cold water is 28-29L/min. Now this seems good (to me) but reading some suggested figures for ratings at different outlets, my readings seem almost dangerous by comparison. What should I be aiming for to...
