hi sorry if i confused you. it was flushed when the boiler was installed in march 2008. yes it did take ages with the plumber moving from room to room and he was here hours that day. The filter he fitted was a chrome in line on the cold water supply and a second coppper filter with a mesh...

No everything inside was nice and clean, no dirt or crap anywhere. Plumber even called manufacturer as could not understand why pump would give up so spectacularly in such a short place of time (system was fully flushed and fitted with filters on cold supply and heating return when installed...

well the plumber arrived last wednesday. After a listen agreed he could here a low rumble when the heating initialised Then a clicking / ticking noise (like a clockwork timer). Adjusting the pump speed changed the rate of the noise. He checked a couple of bits were clean before returning to...

no sorry, no service in 2010. it's the only one i've ever missed since i moved into the house many years ago. Unfortunately things got on top of us a bit last year, as we were having a conservatory put in at the time the service was due then just before it was finally finished i become unwell...

Hi I have a Glow Worm Ultracom 30cxi combi boiler. I had it installed in march 2008 and last serviced april 2009. over the last couple of weeks i have noticed it makinfg a clicking/ticking noise. It does not make the noise all the time and is sometimes louder than others. It only...

hi thanks for all the advise. the hot water supply to the bath is in 15mm all the way from the boiler. i understand that the flared outlet on the bath mixer will not create the back pressure of a tap, but i would have expected to be able to turn it on more than 1/2 a turn and still get hot...

thanks for the info i had suspected that the boiler was just not capable of producing enough hot water hence the post. i got 3 quotes when i first deceided on the job and explained to them my previous boiler (a worcester 240) did not give me enough hot water. i was told that heat...

hi i had a new Glow-worm cxi24 boiler fitted yesterday. The central heating is working fine and i can have hot water in the taps downstairs. I have a mixer tap with shower attachment on the bath. When I tried to run a bath this morning i could only get warm water through the bath tap. If...

hi, I have just purchased a new bathroom from B&Q. On Tuesday I checked the cistern was free of visual faults and fitted the pan and cistern. However a couple of hours later, after filling and testing the, toilet for leaks black lines began to appear and run vertically down the cistern from...

hi all i have recently moved house and the new home has an avacodo bathroom suite which just has to go. i am currently removing all the tiles etc and am a little stumped about the radiator. i have removed rads before, in my old house, but this ran on a gravity feed system. the new House...

i agree with wabbitpoo. i cant take of the shoots that have flowered until it flowers, so i have been taking the old shoots and leaving the new growth as this seemed most logical,

hi felix sorry mate, my mistake orange (propane). Thats what i get for too much cider last night. yes, the caravan does have a cooker running off the same bottle and that seems to run ok (not as good as the mains supply at home but i would not expect it to be), so does the boiler. i...

i stopped using AVG a long while ago and switched to NOD32 it uses far less resources and can complete a full scan in a fraction of the time. it was highly recommended when i did some research at cnet.com and must confess ive had no problems with it missing a trick or conflicting with...

can anyone please tell me why my mock orange never flowers. i planted it 3-4 years ago and it has now grown quiet tall approx 7 foot and is a good 12-18 inches in diameter. the first year i did not prune at all the second in the autumn and the third in the spring but still not...

i did get a note saying it was services when i got it (a sort of tick chart of checks they had made) but the summer of 03 was a rare a nd hot summer so i never really checked it was working until last year when the summer was more traditionally english. The fire does run on butane ( orange...

the fire is fitted in a static caravan and runs on lpg it was already fitted in the van when i bought it in june 03. i was told that when i bought it that both the boiler and the fire where serviced and checked by corgi registed engineers prior to sale. but it has never had any guts...

i have an old style gas fire with the 3 white china blocks in. it take ages to light and then when it does it gives if only minimal heat, unless you are standing right in front of it you would not know it was on. My freind has exactly the same fire and hers really warms the room and her...
