Last year we had a problem with this boiler - It was "clicking" to try to ignite the gas but never got there. We had it fixed and patched up and 9/10 has worked fine....until this morning! Made a racket as it tried to ignite and then finally did and all was fine. Tonight, however when...

Wow - how did you know? Yes it is big and white and shiny too. You guys are ace. Sorry about sounding like a numpty - missed off that info. Its a Halstead Hero 50 Moved in a year ago but it looks pretty new - not sure of warranty of it either. I know thats pretty useless info. I've...

With everyones years of experience on this forum and fixing, breaking down and replacing - what advice can you give me on a new Washing Machine (up to £300), Dishwasher (up to £225) & Tumble Dryer (£200 ish)? Is the fastest spin necessarily the best? Best make - Hotpoint? Hoover...

Washing Machine: Tricity Bendix - Eco shower about 4 years old. Noticed a funny clicking noise last night in machine - thought it must be a missed pen or coin... Wash finished. Then noticed it hadn't taken in the conditioner. Went to put in new load tonight and no response from machine -...

I haven't actually taken it apart - just going on advice from a previous post... Planned to look at weekend tho. just to clarify the system works but CH comes on when the HW comes on. and the CH swich is OFF.
