Thanks oldbutnotdead. I think i will put a couple of 25mm galv steel in with some shallow bends at each end as you say. Cheers

No idea really. Its a new build and i’m not sure if there any regs for screed depth, or what is under that, concrete slab i assume. I only need conduit for cable. Thanks

Thanks flameport and sparkwright

Hello I bought a new redrow house 3 years ago and want to remodel the kitchen with an island. I want to have power sockets on the island, so will need to chase out the floor screed to lay a conduit for the cables. What are my considerations here. How deep should I cut the channel? What conduits...

thanks no, he actually came back to me this morning telling me the part was available. he is coming tomorrow to replace it. i just don't think he was familiar with the particular boiler. no mention of a new boiler at all ;-)

if anyone has the same problem.... i had a gas safe engineer come around to look at this........ The OH stat cannot be manually reset on this and requires replacement. He tells me the part may be difficult to find though as the boiler is circa 1996 thanks for anyone who offered advice

thanks for your help :D

yes, thats right. the honeywell is done for and being replaced by a cheaper model. i understand they are not as good does your yes at end answer the question that the white wire should be left disconnected? thanks

morning i am going to replace my honeywell 2 port motorized valve with the above. the honeywell is 5 wire, and the salus is 6 wire (has an extra white). should i just leave the salus white wire disconnected? on their wiring diagram it shows as the normally closed connection return from the...

thanks for your help tony. i bled everything (twice) before turning the boiler on. i'll fit a new pump this weekend and have a look at the state of the pipes by the pump and motorized valve.... then call an engineer to reset it. cheers

OK cheers Agile How much do you think I should be charged by a gas safe engineer to reset it? Thanks

Thanks Agile i'll bear the x800 in mind next time. I am going to fit a new pump at the weekend before i do anything else. maybe i should get a magnaclean as well.. If i do, could i put x800 in the system and leave it in there... emptying the crap out via the magnaclean? my final question...

thanks agile i considered x800, but not being a plumber was not sure about the effect on my boiler of the harsher chemical, so i opted for the 'safer' option. it took me about 4 hours to refill the ststem anyway, so having not to empty it 4 hours after that was probably for the best (for my...

thanks slapper. how would i reset the pilot interupter?
