Hi, I live near Slough so if you (or anyone else) can recommend someone local to me please let me know. Thanks Freshy

Agile, Thanks for the reply I was not aware it was costing me so much unneccessary gas. My mind set was "if it aint broke don't fix it!" However it seems to be almost broken now... So where do I start with a replacement? Which boiler would you recommend? I would assume I need something...

Thanks for the replies... So before I begin to panic :? Have a look at this picture (also taken from my mobile phone so not great, but with daylight hence brighter). Generally I would say the boiler is in good working order, just last week the water went cold and on inspection pilot...

Hi, I have a Potterton Kingfisher CF125 Boiler and the drain cock is leaking. :( See image below; I have tried to tighten & loosen it from the square value thing (shown by the arrow) but it seems to be stuck! I'm using a adjustable spanner, is there a special tool I...

I don't mind getting my hands dirty so I think the task of replacing the TRV's is something I could undertake myself. I've tried changing my room stat before but I never got the new one working something to do with needing three wires but I only had two. So will need someone in to do that...

So am I right in thinking that each CM67Z can only handle 2 Zones? Hence if you want 6 zones you will need 3 CM67z's? Also I'm not sure how I want/should decide on zoning... Zone1: Living Room, Dining Room, ... Zone2 Kitchen, Study, ... Zone3: Cloakroom, Hall, Utility, ... Zone3...

Anyone else willing to offer some advice here?

Gas bill is £130/mth... :( I started initially by looking into hometronic but wasn't sure if £3000 (guessitmate) was a worthwhile investment... Not sure how long I will be living in the this house either. hence the honeywell CM zone which cheaper and can apparently be upgraded to...

"40 pence of every pound" are you serious? I know the boiler system is old but thought it was bullet proof... Is there boiler system you would recommend? Thanks Freshy

Hi, My house is still either too hot or too cold... and I don't like heating the whole house especially when not all the rooms are occupied.... hence I am looking at something like the Honeywell CM zone system. I have 21 radiators and a floor standing Potterton boiler with gravity...

Thanks for the quick replies... It seems like the Kinetico 2020c is the model to go for. Can anyone recommend a supplier & fitter in east Berkshire? Cheers Freshy

Hi, How do I stop limescale forming? I have limescale build up everywhere in my house from shower heads, taps, sinks, toilets, kettles, irons and so on... It's such a pain cleaning it all the time and I am looking and a way to stop this from occurring or dramatically reduce it. Do...

Hi, Thanks for all your suggestions... I ended up calling Heatmiser on their support line and they were very helpful although they could not fix the problem. After buying a new multi-meter I discovered that the neutral was not giving me 240v. Even with the CH & HW both on 24hrs. I...

Hi, I'm trying to fit my new Heatmiser Thermostat and am a little confused as to why it's not working... I'm simply not getting any power on the digital thermostat!? Please can someone tell me if I have wired it up correctly. The wires that are availble from my old honeywell thermostat...

There are only 2 items in the boiler room which I believe the Sangamo can be connected to, the Honeywell Valve or the Grundfos Super Selectric Pump. It seems that these two are controlled independently, one with the Potterton Mini Minder and the other with Sanagmo? If both these need...

Will the Honeywell ST6400 replace both the Potterton mini minder & Sangamo Timer? What I really want is a single interface to control the CH & HW. Next question, can anyone tell me how much it will cost or come out and give me a quote or even recommend a reputable plumber to do this...

Having the HW on with the CH isn't a problem, guess i'm just used it now. There are 2 Sangamo timers... One in the airing cupboard connected to a SMC commodore mini (Not entirely sure what this is for) Another in the Boiler room (This needs to be in sync with the mini minder, which...

Hi, I'm not to sure how my Potterton Kingfisher CH & HW system works so I have posted pics instead. I want to replace the Potterton mini minder/Sangamo dial/roomstat with a single 7 day program/timer unit, is this possible? Can anyone recommend a system which will be a straight swap...

Thanks for the quick response. I don't have all three at the intermediate switch, therefore I think I will have to leave the switches as they are :( Cheers Freshy

Hi, I want to install a Remote Control Dimmer Switch on a 2-Way switch with intemediate. The remote dimmer switch is from tlc... http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Main_Index/Wiring_Accessories_Menu_Index/Wiring_Accessories~Dimmers_All/Wiring_Accessories~Dimmers_5/index.html One of the...
