thanks for the quick response.
I did not realise that the TRV's were a must? We have basic TRV's at the moment and I wondered if these would be suitable? They may not take the higher pressure?
I'm about to have a look at the Alpha combi.... I take they are a good unit?
Cheers
Hi all, I'm looking for some advice from the huge knowledge base on here and hope someone can help me out.
Our old Baxi boiler has finally had it and it's time to replace it. When I say it's had what I mean is it has another gas leak and I've decided that it's becoming too frequent so...
Good plan! I was having a look at some of the models available. I'm not sure if I have this right or not? but it looks like I need a fairly small combi. Currently I have an output of 11.14kw and some of the smaller ones are about 18kW
Am I correct in thinking this is suitable for me? I'm...
Sorry, forgot to add that on the boiler it states "heat input - 15.15kW Heat output - 11.14kW"
I'm not sure if this information is useful or not?
Thanks
Good evening all, I'm hoping I can get some help from the wealth of knowledge here.
We had a gas leak today and called out Transco who confirmed the leak and condemned the boiler. In the past 2 years there has been at least 4 separate leaks from 2 areas and so it's finally time to call it a...
Aha, yes I can now see that this would happen. Thanks for the info.
I was hoping I wouldn't need to take any radiators off to wash them out? Should the chemical start to move the stuff and I'll feel the radiators getting hotter?
Sorry for being a nuisance.
Thanks for the fast replies.
My thinking was I could just open the drain valve and just let it run out and continuously refill - i.e. this should help to wash out a little of the sludge? Is this a bad idea? Very good point about the header tank needing cleaned - I'll do that first.
I...
Radiators in my house are not warming up correctly, they get hot at the top but cold at the bottom. Anyhow, I have some Fernox desludger to add the the system which is an older boiler with hot water storage tank and radiator circuit with a small header tank in the loft.
What I was wondering...
Thanks for the info.
I had no idea it wasn't very good. I can get hold of the Fernox stuff quite easily. I'll give that a go.
We did notice that on the replaced rad the inflow pipe gave little more than a pathetic dribble, more like a few drops - pointing to blocked pipework. Laminate...
