Hi all, I have a combination boiler that uses two manual pots for controlling HW and CH temps. Was looking to replace these with digital pots that I control externally along with the timing function. I have no issue whatsoever replacing these with the correct functional and safety spec...

Hi, I have a sealed pressurised tribune system and it is losing pressure. I’m pretty sure the expansion tank needs replacing as the Schrader valve won’t do anything when pressed. I’m also after a general service
At the same time.
Chesterfield area, can anyone help?

hi I’m thinking of changing my thermostat ( Heatmisertouch screen programmable) to a Nest. I currently have an old WB 28cdi RSI and will be replacing it with a Vokera 38kw Combi. Am I right to assume that all the wiring from the new or old boiler goes starlight to the heat link thing ( including...
Anyone know how I get to the diverter valve in this? Cant see any obvious way to get the handle off that diverts between bath and shower. When on shower mode the tap is pouring out water at the same time. We've got a full bathroom refurb booked in for in 3 weeks so just need a temporary fix to...
Looked everywhere and I cant find a 1650 x 700 steel, not acrylic bath.
1650 x 750 is too big. I don't fancy chasing in a 1700 bath. Can anyone help?
Cheers to anyone who can im going in circles searching online.
Need to replace this shower. House is being sold in a few months so Cust wants minimum disruption to tiles.
There is a towel cupboard behind the shower with a shelf that I'm going to have to cut out to access the shower.
There is a panel covering the pipework for the head that I can remove...
Evening,
Been to look at a Potterton Kingfisher tonight.
Customer has stripped all the casing off looking for a leak. They said after running, radiators will start to heat up then the boiler cuts out and water appears on the floor. They have lived there for 35 years and the boiler was in...
Been sent this and asked to replace the pump
Can't see exactly what's going on but obviously the D2 is all wrong
Would you just replace the pump and quote to sort the rest or bin the job off?
Customer wants this rad replaced and the pipes chased in to the wall.
Pipe is very close to the switches but can be moved over slightly to get away from the cables.
What do you reckon? Worth doing?
Will have to cover the pipes I know to protect them.
I have said to the customer that I will...
I need to replace a faulty Bristan valve as neither the valve nor cartridges are available. I will be getting a professional to replace it but have been given conflicting info about what manufacturer to use. I was looking at Crosswater but have been told that both these and Hudson Reed valves...
Hi all
I will soon be having a loft conversion, turning my small(ish) three bed one bath house into a four bedroom, two bathroom house. I am also doing a small extension and putting underfloor heating in that.
I am really confused about what I should be doing with my hot water / heating...
Hi,
I've just moved into a small studio and I've got an old direct combination tank with an immerse heater (RMCylinders) installed. I wondered if there's anything else I can replace it with to get some normal water pressure as there is literally none. Moreover I can't call the water hot, but...
Hi I am a homeowner/DIYer albeit reasonably confident, so I may not be using right terminology etc, but here goes:
I wonder if you can help! I want to replace my rad valves to the TRV type and locksheild, but I have a problem. The tails currently on my rads are the larger type (3/4")! the...

Hi
I need to replace a thermostatic mixer shower, but the surface water pipes are only 3.5 cm apart - I believe they are mainly 150 mm apart nowadays?
I would like to do this with minimal disruption - does anyone know if anyone manufactures a shower with such a clearance? If not, what would...
Hi I have an existing radiator of length 2.4 metres. Some nice wood flooring was put down around 1 year ago and I do not want to pull it up. As i'm after some nicer looking radiators, I can't find one at 2.4 in length, so it makes sense for me to buy two. I heard you can join two rads together...
