Thanks. I hadn't considered condensation, but as the conservatory has a plastic roof, I do find it is very cold (at this time of year) in the evenings and night, and very warm / hot when the sun is shining, so I'm not sure how much affect the double glazing will have. Does anyone know if...

Thanks all, especially for the advice regarding onsite repairs. We did ask the companies that came round if they knew anyone that could repair the glass, but both said no. Maybe I need to contact a few more. A follow on question is why do conservatory windows need to be double glazed...

OK, I've switched on the CH & HW, and within a second or two the right hand pipe was warm to the touch, and the left hand pipe (as you look at the boiler) was cool and getting cooler. After a while, the left hand pipe started to get warm. I've found the on line installation instructions...
