Hello DIY'ers. Hope you're well! I had to disassemble this fireplace to fit in my car I had to disassemble the fireplace but in doing so have sheered off the bolt when removing the rusty nut. Any ideas on how to replace this as its buried into the cast iron ? Any advice would be greatly...

Would a fault in the processor box prevent the lights on the thermostatic control to come on?

Any recommendations for decent brands? I assume due to the age my showers parts would be obsolete. Still is over 10 years for a power shower quite good going?

Tony, you seem pretty clued upon your boilers, can you recommend a combi boiler around 27kw , not too expensive. I'm giving up trying to find someone to repair my current one.

Couldn't agree more on the "Cheap and not very good' bit. Thanks for your response.
