Thanks for the reply. I went for the Stuart Turner - it’s a good bit more expensive than the Salamander, but I really don’t want problems with it. I installed it yesterday- have to say I’m mighty impressed with it and it’s super quiet compared with the old salamander one.

Hi, we have a Salamander Force 20Tu. To be fair, it’s been pretty good up till now, when it’s suddenly started pulsing on and off very quickly while using the shower. From what I gather you can’t get spares for them so guess it’s got to be replaced. I was going to buy another salamander but have...

I did. After some more research on other forums the PCB got mentioned and the issue was that the relay contacts were getting sticky. I looked at mine and they were quite grubby - I did consider replacing just the relays but just did a board replacement - it’s not inside the combustion area so I...

Hi, sorry for late reply - I hadn’t seen your response until just now. In the meantime I had a bit of a think about what had happened during the night- when it wakes you up at 02.30 its all a bit of blur. In hindsight, I think the single tone it was making was the same as the exit tone and that...

Hi, I have been asked to cover a feature wall with the above paper and am a little concerned!.... it's a non-woven paper with glass beads in the surface and wondered if any one else has been asked to hang this stuff and if so was it problematic! The instructions say to paste the paper and...

Hi, I'd be really grateful of some advice with regards a problem with my boiler. I have an Ideal Classic FF260 and whilst it's a bit old, seems to work reasonably well. We've noticed in the past couple of weeks though that hot water heats up really quickly - it used to take a good hour or so but...
