Thanks, but this example is too big for the narrow space on the side wall of a cabinet between two shelves. But, there are other good ideas out there. I am going to try this one...
Can any UK electricity boffin enlighten me as to why the orientation of the power cable from a UK plug or adapter is not consistent? Trying to mount an extension lead in a tight spot to accommodate leads from a printer and a battery charger and am stuck between a rock and a hard place: mounting...
Hi bob1960. I've a similar Harton Cosybug with pressure vessel problems. Took up your recommendation and rang EWH. Fantastic service. Many thanks for that recommendation.

Hello ianmcd, Sorry I should have said the boiler is Potterton Suprima 40L. The tank is Harton Cosybug.
Hello ChrisR, my level of understanding of my system is low, but getting a higher day by day, as it's been a lot of trouble lately! When you say 'topping it up' I have visions of pouring...
Sorry, but I haven't been able to find a post that answers any of these questions.
My flat is 9 years old, on 4th floor. When built, unexpectedly the mains pressure was deemed insufficient for the needs of the C/H system. Booster pumps were hastily installed at the last minute for all flats...
Hello. Me again. The problem with my water pump intermittently cutting out for 5 or 10 minutes continues, and is now getting more frequent. I've been able to observe it in operation / non-operation a couple of times now. It's not a problem with the sensors or solenoid, as when it cuts out, the...
Thanks bernardgreen. So you don't think the solenoid needs replacing? This problem has only just materialised (in the past 6 months). When I go downstairs to check the pump, lift the lid and trick the sensors into thinking that the water level has dropped, the water gushes in. The shower is not...
Dear Vent Axia,
Terribly sorry for not replying to your kind offer of help! I had changed my email address and had forgotten I'd not changed my DIY Not settings, so your reply to me was notified to a non-functional email address.
The unit is labelled: 'Vent Axia Centrif 250HP 256420A'...
My flat is too high (4 floors) for Thames Water mains pressure. The builder fitted the above pump about 8 years ago. It now periodically 'dries up' and then eventually recovers, but for 10 or 15 minutes (usually mid-shower) no water is available. Arrow Valves tells me the solenoid valve needs...
Hello, forum.
I see this type of unit has been discussed on the forum before, but not for a long time, and not this particular issue. The unit in question was fitted in flats that were new in 2004. I think this was at the end of Harton's production of this range. Me and my neighbours have...
When new (2004) my flat was fitted with a Vent Axia fan over the hob. The fan sounds like a jet engine about to take off and it comes on whenever steam is detected. It seems if anything to be getting more sensitive. The fan has a wall switch, but it comes on whether the wall switch is off or on...
I've done extensive reading into the Potterton PCB faults because my Suprima has been locking out at least twice a day. Recently however since turning the CH off so the boiler is only heating water for domestic use, it hasn't locked out now for several days. Does that suggest it is the pump for...
Thanks boilerman 2. Now, how does one distinguish between a proper engineer and a company out for a fast buck? It's not that easy for novice homeowners accustomed to a smaller economy and honest tradespeople (I'm Canadian)! The trouble with repairs such as this (if one doesn't already have a...
