You can buy prefabricated garages for very little money (<£1K). Quotes seem to be a little high but of course we don't know your spec (pitched roof etc)

Hi Dave Just been on ebay and someone is selling an unused 60RS. According to gasbits.com, it has the same heat exchanger. parts? replacement boiler? spares..? Just an idea and not too unreasonable distance for pick up - 60 miles. Its sitting at a £100 bid at the mo. Probably too...

Hi Been round there tonight to pick up the vax machine - carpets seem ok. The boiler is a 60CF. The exchanger is a big old lump on a floor mounted boiler = expensive. I don't recall the system being flushed when it was installed - I'm sorry but I can't confirm this with my brother. Too...

Hi Just thought I should mention that I didn't get chance to look at my boiler last night (to check the voltage re pcb or solenoid dilemma) - Re Potterton Prima intermittent fault problem posted yesterday. I'm pretty sure that it's the PCB though - was working fine yesterday.. I had an...

Tony Sorry for the misinterpretation, the only valves fitted I thought were the Honeywell and SIT Tandem (is this the same as the White Rogers one?) - it sounds as it may be, if so excuse my ignorance please. I will test the voltage tonight when I get home. PCB failure again after only...

Tony Just thought I should mention that I have ordered a red solenoid coil for the Honeywell gas valve from 'Supaspares' - £8.75 plus vat - plus £6.50 plus VAT (boo) for delivery. This did take a while to track down! No reference numbers or anything for starters - just google, Honeywell...
