Thanks for the replies would probably feel fairly confident in replacing a like for like receiver ( photographing the wiring first is a good idea) But other good news is that the daughter has now found the missing thermostat ( will not say where it was ) I have photographed and taken details of...

Hi thanks for the replies, There is a receiver next to the boiler screwed to the wall. A local engineer has suggested a new thermostat and receiver will need to be bought and engineer to wire in receiver to the boiler . He has quoted £140-£150 to supply and fit .Does this seem a reasonable price ?

My daughter has lost the program wireless thermostat for her Worcester boiler . Can anyone tell me if we can buy a replacement and will it work straight way with the receiver that is still connected ?

The boiler is running now but have failed a number start ups. The room is well below its control point . Then the boiler starts randomly . Dare not touch the hot water again . E20 has cleared itself

Hi System pressure is 1.5Barg in the green zone . How difficult is it to replace the “thermistor “

Good evening, Have a problem with my Baxi Platinum boiler. The boiler will not run after hot water has been turned on keeps indicating E20 fault code . Has anyone any thoughts on what the problem may be and how the issue can be resolved. Thanks Cheshireblue

Thanks for your reply Johnny 2007 I am a little surprised that the quote didn't mention replacing lead flashing. If this is the case I feel this quote is on the high side from your quote.

Hi the quote says to take down the stack to flashing level and rebuild therefore I would not replacing flashing. This certainly wasn't detailed in the quote . Thanks

I have noticed some penetrating damp from inside parents bedroom. After investigation we have found this damp to be probably coming from a corroded chimney stack. We have had an estimate to rebuild the stack with the existing bricks. The estimate from this work (builder says it will take 2 men...

Thanks for comments on this gone round the houses a few times and spoken to as many "experts" as I could find . The general consensus from gas central fitters is fitting a boiler flu under a canopy is a no no. Spoke to Baxi technical team who were more concerned about possible damage done to...

Thanks for the picture Ian on the plume management kit installed, did you discharge the flu through the roof of the car port (IE need to remove a section of the roof)

Thanks for the comment. So to make it clear to me the plume kit moves this slightly acidic vapour to a point higher up in the port. Would the car still be able to go into the port and would it affect neighbours adjoining port which would be approx 3m from the discharge of the plume management kt.

Ok so basically the pluming is not stopped but moved somewhere it is less of an issue ? Thanks

I would definitely use a gas safe engineer to fit plume deflector kit. This could well be the answer to my problem. Does anyone know how good these kits are and do they stop all pluming ?

Hi Chris, just read page 20 of manufactures instructions where flu can discharge into a car port but a flu displacement kit is recommended, any idea of the cost of one of these kits ?
