Thank you Dilalio (and everyone else). I have been thinking I'll probably do the right thing and consult a professional where available. I was never aware of the possible dangers of incorrectly installed unvented cylinders. Therefore, I feel it would be wise not to attempt any work on the...

Yes I believe so as I recall from the manual provided. You can only buy what's available though. However, it's Bosch, so it should be pretty decent. Oh well, pity I didn't really get anywhere, but thanks for sharing your thoughts gasguru. I appreciate your time. Thank you :)

Gasguru, I appreciate your input and I hope you don't feel as though I'm trying to undermine what you're telling me; I'm simply just trying to share my views. Besides, it could be invaluable to other readers also which is a plus. The water heaters in BG are very basic. It's literally a cold feed...

So I can't lose then. Although irrelevant to the topic, the cylinder could explode whether with an expansion tank or without so I can't see how a vessel could cause further problems. I know my cylinder is fitted with a relief and is working fine as I test often. I don't know how the topic has...

Hi Gasguru, many thanks for your reply. The water byelaws are very likely to not be as stringent as UK standards. Whilst there may be 'plumbers' (I'll use that term loosely) in the city, there certainly aren't any available where I am and chances of them commuting to a village are extremely...

Plumbing Schematics by BGRenovations posted 19 Nov 2018 at 1:21 AM Hi, I intend to install an EV (expansion vessel) to my cold water line as I'm having problems with pressure affecting my water heater and taps. When the water gets really hot, the safety relief valve is triggered and drips. I...

No I didn't have the volume on at all because nothing was playing in them at the time. EDIT: Finally figured out the cause, at the time, one of the earphones was right next to the fan vent and was blowing hot air on it which caused the earphone to get very hot and for the flex to melt. I can...

Nope Just a bit :( Yes it's a grounded power adapter presumably hence the metal pin on the English plug (connected to a European travel adapter). Just curious why you are asking :) Sorry I only know a little about electrics. Earphones still working by the way although the outer flex has...

Hi, I was just on my laptop, about to watch a video on youtube, when I reached for my earphones and noticed that the left earphone was unusually hot. I suppose i only noticed because it was hotter in comparison to the right earphone and when I took it out of my ear, the wire that meets the...
