Thanks for the info Dan. Thought it might be. Anyway, that's much better than needing a new heat ex.
Are these o rings a custom size, or am i likely to be able to pick them up from a diy shed? Guess I'll find out soon enough :)
I didnt choose the boiler, it was here when i moved in :)
Evening all.
Was doing a bit of plumbing on the hot water this morning. Due to location, i ended up removing the hot water outlet pipe from the boiler (worcester 28CDi combi approx 2002). After finishing and turning water back on, I had water ****ing out everywhere, not from the new plumbing...
OK, point taken about the condensing boilers.
As for the "gimmick" lets just agree to disagree. I have been using a "gimmick" for 3 years and for me its fantastic and wont be going in the bin any time soon. I dont "worry" about my heating as you put it, but i certainly don't waste money...
Hi Tony.
Assuming you can currently switch your heating on independently of your hot water, then yes its very easy.
For our system.
Replace your current roomstat with our programmable one. Set the central heating on your current programmer to ON and you're done.
Just a note
Your current...
99% sure that you can, but a model number for your current thermostat will confirm it for sure.
The internet system that I was involved in designing www.inspirehomeautomation.co.uk
works with virtually everything and will have an iphone app in about 2 weeks time.
There are other systems...

Will do exactly what you want, and is compatable with your current wiring system.
If this was me I would be absolutely fuming.
Afraid i dont know the laws regarding this, but i'm sure you are being fobbed off. You might want to check out www.gardenlaw.co.uk. They have a lot of members who really seem to know their stuff.
I would probably write to them and give them 14...
For that sort of money you have a huge choice in thermostats.
Another option that you may want to consider is an internet enabled thermostat. OK it's a little more than your budget, but it will do everything you want + a whole lot more.
Here is one from Inspire Home Automation...
Your PV system is fine. No it can't switch off the main supply (Well not unless it has a major fault anyway) Dont worry about the PV system, it will come back to life once you restore power.
You say your friend was changing a light fitting. So either.

Stevie. When mine reduced to less than a trickle, it was caused by the fill valve being clogged up with bits of dirt etc. I stripped the valve down and cleaned it all up. Worked fine after that. Didnt take too long either.

Your pump wont come on until the water is flowing above a certain rate.
Also i believe a lot of these thermostatic valves need both hot and cold water present to work.
How did you isolate the water when doing the change? Did you have isolater valves or did you have to drain down the tank...
