JJohntheo5 replied to the thread New pressure reducing valve.I wouldn't, under any circumstances, mix old with new. Are you sure that there is other mains supply to showers or a unvented cylinder...
-
JThanks I'll have a go. I know it says preset to 3 bar so thought it would stop at 3 when turn the mains back on. But it just carried on...
-
JJohntheo5 replied to the thread Bypass valve.Indeed, and what is very annoying is that even when the boiler output is well above its minimum output that the flow temperature can be...
-
JJohntheo5 replied to the thread New pressure reducing valve.Yes, understood, but try and get a handle on just how much its leaking past by doing the above test, just keep opening any tap very very...

JJohntheo5 replied to the thread New pressure reducing valve.Yes, I wouldn't expect them to just shoot up instantly, what I would suggest is to crack open a tap somewhere just enough to...
-
JJohntheo5 replied to the thread New pressure reducing valve.Well, must be faulty then, a bit surprising though, maybe worth looking to see if there's any crap under the valve seat.
-
JJohntheo5 replied to the thread New pressure reducing valve.Yes, it does show it as drop tight. Can you check the actual model number, the one I have in my file as being non drop tight is...

JJohntheo5 replied to the thread Fridge-freezer is dying.A plug in energy in my 17 year old fridge/freezer (see below) also shows very high inrush "power" of ~ 700/800 watts, sometimes I can...

JMay be worth trying it again. Especially if you don't keep it full

JJohntheo5 replied to the thread Bypass valve.A ABV won't work with a modulating circ pump, see if you can have a bypass through a towel rad or similar, ie somehere where the flow is...
-
JJohntheo5 replied to the thread New pressure reducing valve.Yes, that's correct, you must install the drop tight type to achieve no flow set point pressure.
-
JJohntheo5 replied to the thread New pressure reducing valve.Can you just get a very small flow from it and see what pressure does it then show. What pressure is set to. (looks like 3.0bar) Also...

JJohntheo5 replied to the thread Combi system pressure - why.It doesn't state what the actual low pressure setting is but does say to keep the pressure between 1.0 to 1.5bar so would think that the...

JJohntheo5 replied to the thread Combi system pressure - why.Its unusual not to have a low pressure boiler trip with a sealed system, what make/model is your boiler?.
