Just pictures of stuff.

Hi all, Could you repair your car at home, buy parts etc then drive it to a dealership and get them to sign off in the warranty book? No, not many or any would do that for you. Fitting a full heating system as explained before is a complicated and inportant procedure. Given the cost of...

Hi all, With most old houses or with property's that have problems with baths, is that, the bath was piped up in 22mm. So, the volume of water is too much. I have to educate clients to throttle back the bath tap, or, they have to pay to reduce to 15mm as much as possible back to boiler...

Hi all, I suggest you get a heating engineer to do the job, if you can't find the drain-off point on the boiler, then, you don't know what else is involved in doing the plate Hex replacement. You could cause more damage and money for your relative, if you get water on the PCB :roll:

Hi all, If you conact a local GSR engineer and explain your position, there is a company that sell reconditioned PCB's for a much cheaper route. They don't have a year's warranty, only 3 months, and they require your old one as an exchange. Your engineer will also check the other boiler...

Hi all, "Without Prejudice" If said fitting has been installed incorrectly, you may have a claim against the installer. As stated above, speedfit cannot be directly put onto chrome pipework, without first removing that section of chrome coating, as the steel grip ring can't attach/dhere...

Hi all, Your PCB has obviously failed, you can't re-solder individual relays on these as you won't have the correct equipment. A new PCB will be pricey I'm afraid plus fitting and testing. Also, another part could of failed, which could of caused the PCB to fail. So, a suitably qualified...

Hi all, To the original question, alot of posts have gone off topic into the relms of legislation and competence. I hope you have had a GSR engineer out who took the transit plastic covering off the boiler which inhibits the seal to the compustion chamber in your boiler!!! This could cause...

Hi all, What pressure did you set the EV?

Hi all, You have "contaminated" hot water, debris from either the tank upstairs or severe corrosion in the pipes, may, have some ols steel pipes in there. Strongly suggest you don't wash your teeth, or drink any hot water, the bath water will be contaminated. So, if you have kids, could...

Hi all, You have way too much pressure in the system, it will expand and cause the prv to open and vent the water! I would check or change your rad valves, as you state that the pipes leading up to the rads are hot. And you have opened the lock-shield valves, but, the system needs to be...

Get a brochure from your local stockist and ask for class two flue applications and look for business cards on their wall for a suitable guy :wink:

Does the primary ntc make ok? Often the pump on these are at fault. Check the plate hex isn't chocked with crap as well... P.S. register with the "combustion chamber" as well. We GSR guys hide in there :wink:

Hi all, Just box it in, leaving clearances for service and access to the ECV. Moving meters is a costly affair. If you want it moved outside, depending which utility company you are with, you could see a bill from £700-1800 on your front mat :)

Hi all, If no error code on the LCD screen. Change both sensors if DHW failing GT153 part number, both have long white cables on. Or get a suitably qualified guy out to do this....

Hi all, Your radiators need "Balancing," this involves opening or closing the rad valves to allocate heat to that particular room, depending on it's use. Suggest you get a local heating engineer who would do this in an hour. One hour's labour will save you many a cold night for the winter :)

Hi all, Then your first tap is knackered then...

Hi all, If installed 5-6 months ago, you have a 1 or 2 year warranty with it. Just ring your installer or if he doesn't answer the phone, ring heat team :)

Hi all, The little elf is stuck in reverse, the gearbox would depend on how many gears it has, whether it is a manual or automatic! Can't get back into first gear. Failing that, the diverted valve may be stuck in DHW mode, when calling for CH. Do you get DHW ok? These have been known to...
