hi the boiler has overheated, it will reset itself but you need to try and understand why. unlikely to be the boiler imo, possibly blockage in the system pump stopped for some reason.

you will still have fault codes in the display, while the hot tap is running check the display if it begins to flash alternatley between F & 14 then again i would suspect early signs of the plate to plate blocking. If the plate to plate is beginning to block you will have noticed the HW...

exapnsion sounds fine, a simple way to check is. with all demands off and the boiler cold note the pressure (in your case 0.8) pop the boiler on heating for 15mins half an hour turn the heating off and look at the pressure again, as a very rough guide i would not expect it to have exceeded...

Hi, The pressure seems ver very high. Is the copper pipe (normally on the outside wall where the boiler is) dripping water? once the pressure reached 3bar it should release its pressure. When running a hot tap, do you have any fault codes flashing on the front of the boiler? cheers Andy

Its not just us that are quiet which makes me feel ever so slightly happier..... Was speaking with some friends in the local the other night there PAYE and even there quiet..... I will be optimistic and say things will get better! sooner rather than later I hope.......

I brought a 98 V70 AWD last summer, and with the winter we have just had thank god i did i wouldnt of been able to get to any of my jobs! Was my father-in-law who has had them all is life that recommended it, and being completely honest id never have anything else now!!!!!

Ult FF could be that young in all fairness however flues are obsolete, try cumbria heating, GD heating or APK (google them).

some stats from a well known brand during december 2010: average calls taken each day: 1300 no matter how you look at it a vast majority of those calls were 'hand holding' newly qualified engineers. im all for free advice, i dont use them alot but really? while we the vast majority do...

or just a picture of the house with the soundtrack on youtube :D

There are too many 'Short course' repair engineers out there these days. BTW me not being one of them! dont be fooled by by my forum name.........

Oh and I would have the inglenook as a plain open fire, theres nothing better than sitting and watching a roaring open fire in the middle of winter. I do like stoves, but would never re-place my open fire with one.

If your just looking for a gas boiler/solar panel set up look towards Vaillant or Glowworm, they provide all you need in one kit. You can mix and match various components but its far simpler to keep it all the same, it also means the warranty/service backup is far easier. You unfortunatley...

is it entire glass? could you not attach 4mm plywood somehow to the frame and wall paper that?

good when its windy down there and all the nice dresses :D

maybe its a 'death star' waiting in the darkness?? :P
