I do mean a standard normal combi boiler. Instead how about perhaps a conventional boiler - does that make it easier and possible? With regards to costs - think about 12kw per hour for heating water and/or radiators. I've worked out we have the potential of using 13,000 kw p.a . Obviously that...

Currently have twin 6K potterton electric boilers and a water cylinder in airing cupboard and tank in loft. This powers the heating and hot water in the house. My question is it possible to additionally install a gas combi boiler in a different location. So I was thinking to install it where the...

maybe I have to remove the entire top section of the machine to get to the control panel ??

The on-off button on our washine machine is jammed in and I cannot depress it. - so it's powered on permanetely. I've tried levering a very small flat screwdriver around the button hoping to free it, but nothing. Tried tapping all around there , also nothing. I am not sure how to remove the...

you so right..and I have asked.., but no one I know wants to recommend anyone. Most have contracts with brit gas/homeserve or the people they have called have given them a bad service !

true - well not in my case. Your probably right though with most people...this being a DIY site document headed potterton fireside 35/51.... http://www.partsarena.com/baxi/System/DATA/Dx/DS1/installation/2050/I01-2050/I01-2050.htm on page 13 (fig. 23) shows the gas valve document headed...

I know gas valves are not DIY.- in fact I think it's illegal for me to do it. I am getting a 'gas safe' man to do the job - anyone else is also illegal. I am simply just buying the parts, so i am not stitched up on the part prices. I see no gc part number anywhere on the original document...

Just received what I thought I was ordering the gas control valve - according to a document I downloaded headed "Potterton Fireside 35/51" quoted the part number as 402906. So I ordered one off ebay, but even though the part looks the same as the one in the document it looks physically...

even more surprised - I've found it on another web site for £31+del - includes vat - blimey what's going on with these huge variations on price ? namsag - sorry you've lost me, but I haven't the foggiest whether it is half or 3/4. Either way am I right in saying when the existing one is taken...

well surprise surprise I have found the same part on another web site for about £67 !

Well I can only see the red and white ones for sale. Is that the expensive or cheap ones ? Either way I cannot see anyone selling the grey ones. If they both do the same job I obviously want the better quality ones - ones that should last.
