    Incompetent Plumber and SNIPEF

    We have no intention of paying another penny if we can help it. No, the stove we ended up having installed is only a log burner which only heats the room but at least we can have heating in the event of another power cut, which is useful especially in blizzard conditions.

    The first £8,000 covered the cost of fitting a new combi-boiler and oil tank as well as supply but not fit 4 radiators. The second bill (£18,000) consisted of fitting the said radiators and replacing the plastic piping with copper (only because he insisted that the plastic was corroded and...

    The shower engineer suggested a 45 amp fuse. However this does not explain why power cuts out when shower not in use

    Hi, the shower is 9.8 kw. The wiring to the shower is only one year old and fitted at the same time as the shower was installed. The fusebox component for the shower was also newly installed in a separate enclosure.
