In that case, I'll get someone in!

Is it easy enough to do a straight swop with the old one?

We have a THD 95de shower pump, must be at least 12 years old, suddenly made a double thump noise and it died. Tried changing the fuse but still nothing. Is there anything I can try or does it sound like we need a new one?

We have a copper cylinder. The noise seems to only be when the heating has been on for some time. I'm going to see if I can identify where its coming from today, problem is the banging lasts only for a few seconds so will have to get into the loft pretty quick!

it's an Apollo 15/30 boiler. I'll see if I can get in the loft and pin point the noise. Thanks

I switched the hot water on at the timer but the boiler didn't turn off. The hot water thermostat was set at low and switched the hot water on again didn't switch the boiler off. The only way I could get the boiler to go off was with switching the thermostat off or switching off the mains...

I managed to check this last night, as it's actually happening at 12.30am The boiler switches on, I turned the High/Low temperature switch to off and the boiler turned off. It went back on again when I set it high/low. Then after a while the boiler switched off and the pump upstairs just...

Thanks, will give it a go, if I can stay awake!
