Hi All, I posted someone earlier in the week and realised I've got a cowboy doing my boiler replacement. Since the minute it was installed, it hasn't worked. When turning on heating only, the boiler locks out with code f. 23 however, if you turn on heating and hot water, the system runs...

Looks like I got a cowboy. No wonder my new boiler isn't working

Last question please. When he first arrived, he emptied the radiators into my flower bed. Is that standard, or should he have of come with a container for the water?

Thanks both. I'll get back onto him.. I had a feeling he didn't do it, as I reminded him about it close to the end of the day. He obviously didn't want to stick around.

He used F3 for the cleaner. Can that be left in?

It's a gravity feed vaillant. Two tanks in the loft type system. He's going to cut more ventilation into the system. I suspect he didn't put the chemicles into the system, hence he didn't need to flush.

P.s I know he had two bottles with him. One was a cleaner, the other was an inhibitor? Does that still mean it could have of been a two in one.

If it happend to someone else, then maybe.

Thanks. I'll ask about the chemicals. No leaks that I can find. Heating work only if the hot water is turned on (water is also heated by the boiler). Without water on, the heating locks out. Code f. 23.

Hi All, Had a new boiler installed into a house that's been dormant for 2years. Since then the system keeps crashing due to low pressure/air. We paid the have the radiators chemically cleaned. However, the engineer didn't flush them. He said the chemical he uses stays in the system. Is that...

Woops. Something like this

Thanks Robin. Any suggestions on the type of screw? For clarity, I'm planning on building something like the picture below. P. S any suggestions on how to stop the posts from rotting in the concrete?

Hi All, I've got access to a bunch of 5x5 and 6x2 construction grade rafters. I've got a 45meter garden and was hopping to use some of this for fencing. My question is: do you think the 5x5 can take the weight of the 6x2 running length ways? It will be 12 6x2 per two posts making a 6ft x...
