Just don't let the wife at it after you've used it otherwise she may set it to blow and blast ya with ****y water :ROFLMAO:

I'd suggest finding a local, trusted, gas safe engineer or firm and having them also put a quote in for the move or at the very least a full service on that boiler which would uncover any issues. You can then use this information to make your decision... you may find the past 7 years the...

Mine makes noises like pipes expanding as they heat up, but it happens as soon as the system calls for heat and its quite loud so I'm also interested to know if it's the head or the valve? Is greasing them up inside a thing? Sorry for the partial thread hijack :D

Somebody may say otherwise but I suspect it's scaled to hell and needs replacing, it may also have reduced the flow enough it's triggering the overheat

Is your water pressure normal everywhere else?

Are you in a hard water area and if so how old is it

Lifespan of a Ferroli?! :LOL:

You'll need to modify your wiring center as well to remove the requirement for the thermostat - do you know where it is and what it looks like? It's funny you should post, I will be installing a Nest this evening in place of the same programmer. A note... judging on the lack of quality with...

You can modify the controls for the system relatively easily, with two core cable and additional controllers. But this would involve planning what you would want to control (eg, groups of units) and from where, and then removing the existing control cabling and then putting the new controls in...

Thanks mate. What kind of resistance should be on the suppressor? Wondering if there could be any other faults blowing the fuse like that... something must have shorted somewhere

evening all My fridge appears to be stuffed. It's blowing fuses the second I put them in, can't hear the compressor attempt to run. Anybody have experience with this model and what I can try to do, to troubleshoot it with a multi meter? I suspect compressor but I'm hoping not Cheers in advance

Thanks both - opted for the best solution in the end, put a tee in and then a new valve off of that Cheers!

Morning all I have a counter top dishwasher on order, it'll be sitting on worktop above the washing machine so it's close to existing cws/waste I'm going to put a mcalpine twin spigot onto the existing stand pipe to allow both to discharge into the existing waste but my issue is with the...

Morning all I need some advice, our washing machine is bouncing around a bit on the floor in our kitchen. We're in a rented flat, the previous washing machine leaked and damaged the floor behind the machine. We've put ours in (it's been in for nearly 2 years now) but the floor isn't good and...

Hi Tony Just as I thought. She's not long moved in and everything but the archaic boiler had been renewed/serviced. Either way RGI is on his way over tonight to have a look at it for her, hopefully it's fixable.
