    Leaky Boiler?

    I Have a Glow Worm Flexicom 18sx, which I have to up the pressure on every couple of weeks or so. I know there must be a leak. There was a wet patch under the boiler yesterday when I had to add water. I rang for someone to come out and have a look and they said that it may not necessarily be...

    Noisy Gas Meter

    I don't recollect ever getting a free diagnosis before. I was charged £45 for the call out from the engineer. Apart from checking things like condensate levels I have no intention of repairing anything as gas scares me. Another more local engineer has been booked for early next week. I will get...

    Noisy Gas Meter

    Veritas Alarm, first use

    I have just finished installing a Veritas R8 system with 3 PIR, 1 Magnetic, Oddysey 3E Bellbox. I have gone through the walk test and the sounder check OK. Is there a way to silence the external sounder while the system is checked for a week or two, just so I don't upset the neighbours if it...

    leaky cylinder joints

    firegazer, did you sort out your leaky problem? I have just had the same problem with the hot water in coupling. Loads of PTFE but still leaking. Did you try the gas grade PTFE, jet blue or the loctite 55 on the joints and what was the outcome? Thanks.
