I will sort!!! Please, please persevere with contacting the school by phone. Ensure you get names and then ask for teachers by name. They will most likely not be able to get back to you during day as teaching!! However, you should be given some indicator of when contacted back. As said...

Boiler still stable!! :lol:

Hi. Your daughter should have been given her maths and science SATs results before summer holidays. The English results are a bit different because there were real issues this year so only some students got these before holidays. At our school students will get their English results first day...

Hello. Just to give an update. Pressure still stable after two days. Isolated the boiler the last two nights for 10 hours each and when turned on again no pressure drop at all which looks like no leak. The pressure not dropping with CH on, running DHW or when not being used. I am obviously...

Ok. CH still stable after 5 hours now. Have turned off now so will monitor and the isolate boiler tonight. All seems ok so far - fingers crossed!! Very, very odd. How can it be fixed!? By the way, believe it or not got B for GCSE physics but did not carry on with it as all we did was blooming...

If pressure drops will do expansion vessel first before assume leak in kitchen then. All still ok though. Don't know Barnet school at all or the senior management at JK Boys. I lived in London for 12 years and taught for 7 down there in average comps and loved it (moved up to Lancs because...

Sorry crossed post. Thanks for advice will just put on lights then. Will get some fuse wire at 15amp as says on fuse. The CH is definitely the only thing running off that fuse. Will have a look at the fused spur switch as think know what this is in cellar. Let me know what results of the test I...

Have done the above test and nothing hardly moved on the pressure guage. What does that mean? Leak or no leak? There does not seem to be any pressure drop at all today. I am going to run the CH for a couple more hours monitor, then let it cool down and monitor. I will then leave system isolated...

Thanks both again. Another question I have is that I have an old Wylex consumer unit in the cellar. I will eventually get it replaced but have to do up the house slowly and steadily due to cashflow and have focused on one thing at a time. Anyway, I read on a site that I could put in some...

I think you are being rather unfair though of course I do appreciate your advice. I have no background in DIY or plumbing AT ALL and am trying to learn. I have had to learn loads since Wed morning from nothing and you are clearly a professional in the field so seems all too simple to you. I did...

Its not your fault as I obviously have a problem with CH system that needs sorting. I should have left the PRV to sort the pressure surge but was worried as gauge was heading to 4. I had visions of the side of my house exploding!!!Plumber came out to sort radiator gush and the valve. He...

Having to get emergency plumber out. No water came out of hot tap when tried it but would not pressure with CH flow off and made really odd noise. Turned CH flow on and DCW and pressure rose to nearly 4. I got really scared and so I started to bleed a radiator to release pressure. It blew out...

Will do it now but need a few details first as remember I am complete novice. Please answer yes or no or expand more. I need to turn the CH in and out valves back on when I repressure to 1.5 don't I? When I turn the cold off and run the hot, I know the boiler should be off but what should...

Have isolated boiler for more than an hour (CH out and in) the pressure has dropped from 1.4 to just above 1. Will post results just before go to bed. Does this mean that there is no leak and the issue is expansion vessel? Could it be that the system was not totally cool and so could still be...
