    Service manual required for Ravenheat RSF 820/20

    To future posters asking to be forwarded a copy. Nobody forwarded anything to me. I have however found a User Manual for a RSF 82 and the user controls appear to be the same - This should suffice for landlords needing to leave a copy of a user manual for the tenant – but of course will not...

    Service manual required for Ravenheat RSF 820/20

    If anyone has a user manual, I too would very much appreciate one. For information (added due to some of the comments in this thread) I too am a landlord. I do not do any maintenance on any part of the CH systems in any of the houses we let out (save bleeding rads) Landlords have to...

    Chasing in soil pipe to internal wall

    Saniflo are ok and reliable untill something solid is flushed - which will block them. Even the model they advertize as being able to handle sanitary towels block on occasion.

    Chasing in soil pipe to internal wall

    Bad idea but possible. Definately need blg regs Def need to comply with Party Wall Act. The chance of anybody doing this without causing at least minor plasterwork damage to next door is virtually nill.

    Which Condensing Combi (8 bed house)

    Thanks for the response. Perhaps I should have given a bit more info – but had pretty much decided to put combis in anyway (though I am now wavering) • These houses have student tenants – 8 in each house (without including any ‘guests’ they may have ‘stopped over' :wink: ) so will have plenty...

    Which Condensing Combi (8 bed house)

    gas 4 you I see you do not like glow worm or Potterton - but which are your prefference? As far as fitting- always difficult to know. The plumber i have used (happily)for many years has retired. Getting a plumber in Sheffield to price fairly for a job is difficult - and even then, how...

    Which Condensing Combi (8 bed house)

    We are about to have 2 new condensing combis fitted and I would like to know which you guys think are the best manufacturer at the moment and likely to last the longest. I am told W.Bosch and Baxi are good - any comments. I am not sure if it is a fair question - is one manufacturer generally...

    How do I install a wall mounted basin mixer?

    Pilot Peter I too am about to fit similar fittings (Sanitan) that also have no fixing brackets. Mine are to be chased into a brick wall, so the pipweork can be secured easily. You have no choice also - you must fix suitable noggins to secure the pipework or your spout and taps will soon...

    Balancing difficulty - perhaps need a second/extra pump??

    I am sorry you lost me here! Thank you for your responce. From what I can understand here I need to ensure the Bypass is set correctly - and that sounds as if it is going to need to be fully shut?

    Balancing difficulty - perhaps need a second/extra pump??

    Hi – thanks for the quick response! The boiler is a Glowworm Xtrafast. I know little about central heating systems and boilers. The flow/return are fully open and hot water works OK (checked as you suggested) I can not see a bypass valve between flow and return – perhaps it is within...
