Hi
My dad's heating suddenly packed up on Thursday, of course just as the temperature really dropped. It's intermittent and will work about 20% of the time but mostly it won't.
The ecotec 415 is about 10-15 years old and has been serviced regularly, almost every year like clockwork. The...
thank you both for the advice. It was indeed the washer stuck to the drain cock seat. I fished it out, fitted a new one and greased the threaded mechanism. It now works a treat.

Hi all
I posted the following onto rated people a month or two ago. I didn't receive any replies so I wondered if the pros on here could cast their eyes over it and give me their opinion regarding the time and labour charge.
I started refitting my kitchen about four years ago and it's now...
My faithful Vokera 20/80 has started to groan. The pump is on its way out and although I'm sure I could replace the pump and get another few years from it, I really ought to get it replaced seeing as it really needed to be replaced five years ago. The fact that I've manage to squeeze this long...
