Hi Tony, Thank you for your input. I am at the stage now that I do not wish to get involved with any more discussion on this point. If you have read my initial post, I only posted it to give other readers an example of the experience I have had recently with my Potterton Boiler. I did not wish...

Search me ? ? But ask Dan if you dare ! ! Also, unaccustomed as I am to this forum, or any other for the matter, I was hoping that everyone concerned realised to which post I was referring. I thought, wrongly, that the bars at the bottom of the page, were the ones to click when answering a...

Oh Yes, me too. At 71 years of age, arguments upset my blood pressure, and make me feel unwell. Thanks again for your response. If ever my gas fitter emigrates, I'll move your name up the list. 8)

If we ever met, we'd probably be friends. Best regards. Cooder.

True, but closer. :) I'm happy with the reply and the explanation.

Thanks again, but still NOT 55%.

It's not a case of ' We know more than you.' That is such a childish remark. I posted a note about what happened to my boiler, and how it was repaired, and now works efficiently. The figures I gave about it's original stated ' efficiency ' came from the Potterton Manual. I didn't make them up or...

Thank you for your pleasant response. Well your figure of ' somewhere in the region of 70%,' is a lot better than the 55% that was given out on this forum, by one of the ' experts.' It is also closer to the 78% given in the manufacturer's manual. ( Which is where I extracted my figure from). It...

You sound well informed, and as an engineer, for a great part of my life, I understand what you are saying. My figures of 78% efficient come from the original manufacturers handbook. Now, it appears that ' efficiency ' means different things to different people. In general, if my car is more...

I guess you are just here for an argument. I would have been happy with a genuine intelligent response, but to say that ' Your man is talking out of his proverbial, ' is uncouth and uncalled for. I don't accept any remark like that has value, when I am trying to point out the technical issues...

If a guy who hasn't seen my installation can quote 55% efficiency for ALL these boilers, really appears to have plucked this number from fresh air. And I would be wary of a guy, doing a job for me, who doesn't trust his equipment. Maybe I can put some perspective on this, which makes...

Considering that this thread appears to have been running since 2004, and the post I answered was posted on 18th Jan 2011, I can't see how you can make remarks about me resurrecting an old thread. I never knew that there was a time limit on posting, or that my post would appear to get your back...

I have a Potterton Netaheat 10/16E which was installed in 1985. It has been serviced regularly by a Corgi Registered, - now RGI plumber. A few weeks ago, the printed circuit board failed, and I bought one from a gas parts supplier for £99.00 plus S & H. When the part arrived, the plumber...
