I am having problems with my boiler pressure. It has been fine over the Summer but is now losing pressure slowly, takes about a week to go from 1.5 bar to 1 bar. Also when the central heating is on the pressure goes up into the red. You helped me out last time with my expansion vessel making...

Thanks for your answer. I think it would be easier to take the lot up hope they dont break then start all over again. Whats the best way to get the tiles up?

1. The adhesive was Unibond tiling on concrete and screed floors high strengh adhesive. 2.The notches are 6mm across and 6mm deep. 3. The floor was dirty and dusty so it was mopped, brushed then vacumed. What is the best way to clean a floor? 4. Already mixed. 5. Porcelain. Thanks...

I have a problem with the preheat function. When it is on there is a loud slurping noise and a sort of what can only be described as Water being poured on hot coals sound comming from the top part of the boiler, when I turn the hot water on and after the tap has been turned off. The radiators...
