We have a downstairs shower room/toilet and the hot water tap yesterday started running VERY slowly on the sink - virtually down to a trickle.
Turned the tap on this morning and hot water was coming through fine again - went back a 10-15 minutes later and the water was back to a trickle...
Any...
Hi All,
I wonder if anyone could advise a possible cause of a consistent knocking/tapping noise from when the dishwasher seems to empty? The noise seems to continue for about 10 minutes after the dishwasher has finished its cycle. From my understanding It's seems to be coming from the soil...
Hi all, please excuse my first post being a request for help, but I have just moved into a place as a Property Guardian and the cold tap in the kitchen doesn't run when turned.
The previous tenant says it worked fine for her, so I'm assuming it's just been switched off somewhere, but I've...
My mum's house has poor water pressure, so she has a water pump fitted to boost the pressure when having showers. As far as I'm aware, it just comes on when there is a demand (i.e. Taps on, shower on etc.)
Earlier today, I popped round to water her plants while she was out. I filled the...
Hi There,
I have an Ideal Evo HE combi boiler and the central heating is working fine but the hot water is having some issues. It is running hot and cold and after it has been on for about 20 seconds the error code 'HA' comes up on the boiler. It used to run very hot but no longer. The...
Hi,
I have running water into the toilet pan after flushing. It is not the overflow as the water level stops below the overflow. The water in the cistern does not start rising after flushing.
That is until I lift the cistern lid off. Doing this immediately allows the water level to rise. Not...
Hello
I've laid wet UFH in the new extension (suspended floor) as follows:
1) 3 loops (about 80m each) in the zone.
2) 2 port valves for 3 zones on the flows (UFH, upstairs rads, downstairs rads).
The pressure test indicates no leaks in any of the loops.
When the valve to the UFH is closed...
Hello everyone, It's my first post on here and I wondered if anyone has any pearls of wisdom concerning the following. Thanks in advance, Karl
I'm trying to figure this one out, any help would be much appreciated.
I was called to a house, their complaint was inconsistent temperature at all...
Been adding UnderFloor Heating to my own house and it's running provisionally. Controls yet to be wired. Can't think of ideal system but this is the best I can think of myself:
Since the UFH is auxiliary to a radiator (theoretically not enough output from UFH to hold its own in cold weather)...
just replaced the motor because it was getting hot , new one does the same is this normal, as far as I can work out the motor has to keep running to keep the valve open because of the return spring, is this right, valve works okay with the motor or with the manual lever.
Tried everything g I can. Rad balancing (new 2 years ago). Baxi 105 is not running continuously long enough to bring rads up to temp. House still cold after several hours of heating being on. Boiler switches on max temp, quickly reaches 90 degs according to indicator lights, but switches off...
I posted a question earlier today but the thread was closed by the moderator after being told "You require a gas safe engineer. This forum doesn't give advice on boiler repairs on the open forum."
I'm NOT looking for advice on repairs, I just want to know the theory / technical / theoretical...
Hi,
Can anyone help. I have a Baxi Genesis 80 combi that is misbehaving. On HW everything is fine. On HW/CH everything works as it should but the danfoss pump is running continuously. There is no room thermostat. with the CH control knob turned to minimum and no demand for HW the pump...
I have a 5 year old Logic Combi 30 serviced around 4-5 months ago. The rad heating supply is fine but I've noticed recently that if I run the mixer tap in the wash hand basin for a while when shaving, it runs hot for about 30 seconds and then goes cold. I then have to run the tap on full hot for...
Hi - last couple of days noticed loud noise starts when turn hot water and shower on. Not the pipes banging as heard this before. Any ideas what could be causing it
thanks
Good evening,
I would be very grateful if anyone can advise me on a problem that I am having in a property I rent out.
Tenants have reported to me that water in the shower is running stone cold when showering. For example, yesterday a tenant found that after 15 minutes of hot water the shower...
Hi, I'm hoping for some advice to point our landlord in the right direction for getting us a heating fix.
In the past month, our rads have started to go stone cold two hours after they come in.
The cylinder stays really hot, and the boiler is still on, but it's like the rads are switching...
Good afternoon, we have just had an Aztec Easyfit 12kw installed and I'm a bit worried about running costs. I have calculated costs using an online calculator but this doesn't take into consideration the boiler will switch on and off when at full heat.
The tariff I am on is economy 7 at 7p per...
I turned the heating off at about 10. But the pump in the airing cupboard was still making a noise like it was on.
There's a wall switch which allows it to be switched off in there. So it's off and quiet.
But the manual switch had always been left on before and it was totally quiet unless...
