Client asks for advise on what to replace a Keston 170 with. Along comes Polly to advise of fitting a hooky fan.... Personally..... I'd have a brace of 24kw boilers fitted. Property of that size is likely to have many times with large number of guests.... A brace of boilers = you'll never...

No. If you want it guaranteed working... Employ a decent heating technician who can explain what's needed. No point fitting anything until you know what's what. You don't build a house without foundations

Modulate implies that it adjusts its output during operation. A gas boiler historically did this simply by changing gas o/p. Now thwt adjust all.... Gas pressure... Fan speed.... Pump speed. An oil boiler is not modulating. It is range rateable I.e.. as said... You change nozzle and setup to...

Modern regs regarding water use.... Means new homes have flow limitors on hw. For example... House has a 20L per min incoming mains volume. 2 showers running 10 L per min outlet limitors.... Will need circa 4 L per min of hot water at circa 45 degree. Going into the boiler.... Circa 12L per...

Worcester 40cdi.... Sledge hammer to crack a walnut. Over sized.... Under flow volume..... It'll be split on the heat exchanger within 24 months. Sounds like you need to get a install guru in who can explain heat loss. Energy efficiency. 21st century control.

Sorry.... But you're wrong. You're paying the guy 1000£ to install a boiler that has AT BEST a 8 year life span. Now.... Take a intergas..... Doesn't have a plate heat exchanger... So the 'dont need a flush' attitude only a rinse out.... Is much more applicable. But... Ref your filter...

2.5k to have a decent job done by a decent experienced guy.... It is possible.... But you'd need to be lucky. Spending 5k on a fitter who fits Worcester boilers.... Its like buying a DFS sofa at the time it's not on offer...... Over priced and will last about 10years tops. Get an intergas...

Quite new. But it ain't the battery. It's a common issue with the vehicles. Just not seen anyone discuss a cure

My 57plate ex BG combo van is suffering from the dancing dials. They drop off and then jump back. Sometimes totally stop and if motor shut off it wont start I know it's not the dials. I've got the binnicle hanging out so when it happens I can wiggle the cable to get van going again Does...

So. For reasons not understood by me. 1 of my lads had his apprentice core out a flue hole. Upon getting thru 1st bit of stone... He checked. Needless to say..... He balls'd up. Listed bath stone. Customer is being totally nice about it. But I must sort it. Plz advise on what would be...

Probably been done too death.....b My new offices want 2 t.v screens at either end of office too allow them to see/alter the technicians job lists without needed to use the current white board/marker pen system. And they want 1 screen to display the GPS tracker app they currently use off of a...

Please allow me to elaborate on why worcester are "apparently" good. No actual reason other than the marketing and business team within that company is one of the best out there. Akin to 'why make the best.....Surely it's cheaper to make people "think" we are good' I have...in many years of...

Not quite ACDCs Down Payment Blues but ..... In ma kitchen got a load of halogen down lighters. They're operating off of a number of transformers. Looks too me like 5 transformers with 10 down lighters. Obviously 240V into transform. 2 wire out of transformer too 1 of the lighters and then...

so.... to confirm..... is the cat6 cable i got going too do the job or not?

i've got a 100m length of cat6 external cable. its 4 pair wire. My requirement is to run a cable to a new office. The use of the cable is too provide 2 separate internet broadband connections too the office. at one end will be the 2 separate sockets to plug in the 2 separate routers ETC and at...
