My Combi system does not have any isolator valves between the boiler and the rads (doh!). Fine until you have a boiler problem so - (once bitten as they say), whilst I have the system down I will take the opportunity to fit valves on both flow and return. Does anyone have any reccomendations...

Looking at the pump in my combi, it seems to be the same as a standard Grundfos 15/50 except for the bit with the impeller etc. A replacement 'boiler pump' is about 3 times the cost of the standard Grundfos pump so I was wondering - has anybody tried swapping the pump motor body onto an...

Not sure if anyone can advise but I have a 12 month old Ferroli Optimax HE31C which has failed over the xmas period - no heating or hot water :( Display was completely blank - not a sausage, checked plug fuse (all OK) checked inside the boiler and found that BOTH board fuses (250v 3.15A) had...

Hi Guys, have recently turned the gas on in a property that has been empty for over a year. Read the meter but when I went back to it some 30 odd minutes later, the meter had moved. It's a metric meter, the dial that moves looks like it counts 1000th's ?? Over the 30 minute period it...

Ferolli Optimax HE31C - Error code d1? Hmmmm Newly installed boiler working fine for heating but when hot tap is run, after tap is closed boiler goes to d1 and seems to 'reset'. Takes a couple minutes and then all is fine again. Strange - anyone have an idea ?? The mains water...

Just finishing off the installation of the Optimax HE31C and looking to supplement the system with a couple of goodies. 1. Spirovent Air/Dirt 22C - these look to be a good unit and could improve the longevity of the combi system especially as the installation is in a bungalow and the CH...
