Not sure if it is the cost as my house is in a very nice and sort after area plus walking out into the garden with £220 Uggs on which he made a comment about being expensive boots then i think it is something more like not doing a proper job!

Thanks for the reply r896neo! The patio is one side of my garden against a fence so the dpc is not a issue! Yes the levels wont be right as it wont be flush with the grass but i dont really think that will be a issue, but it could be?? Just seems very strange to me on the laying of it and i...

Hi, i have just had a company around today to quote me for a patio to be layed where the existing one is, not sure if this is a cowboy way of laying my new patio but he said he would lay it over the existing patio slabs which is pretty level and solid, to me i thought he would take the old slabs...

Dont apologies Rob, it's been good to get your advice and cant wait to get a un-vented tank fitted now!! ☺

Yes Madrab that is what i am doing now, trying to hunt down someone who can take a look and advise on the best option for me!

My tank size is approx 800mm height and 500mm width. Yes certainly wont be using the plumber again who installed my shower but did need a new tank so a blessing in disguise really! Believe it or not i have phoned a couple of very good heating engineers i know but they are not qualified to fit...

Not sure the litre capacity of my tank as it has no info on it! Yes my place is all electric but recently had a new thermostatic shower fitted but the hot water pressure is very poor and it would be useless i think if it had a pump fitted as i guess it would rapidly empty the tank so that is why...

Hi Madrab, yes i am now certainly going to go ahead with a un-vented, been interested in what you say about them and certainly a good investment to make! Also been looking at them on the web and seen the 25 year warranty ones! What size tank would suit a 2 person household with mainly the shower...

Ah ok not sure what that is, will do a search on that, will the system be all ok on a first floor flat though?

Ok Mandrab looks alot better than a combination cylinder and i guess i will get better pressure on my hotwater! Would have needed a pump fitted too if i went for a old style tank! Feel alot better now that it has numerous fail safes built in!! Got plenty of room for this type of cylinder so will...

Now that is scary that video, i remember a good few years ago a house nearby me had a new cylinder put in and it exploded and the house caught fire so i guess that is the type of cylinder that was put in by a unqualified plumber!! Always remember that and have always had a fear at the back of...

Ok Madrab will ask him to show me that card before he starts to install it. Thanks for the info would not have asked him as did not know he needed that card to install a cylinder tank!!

Thank you for the info guys, i have very high ceilings so height is no problem. I did wonder why my hot water pressure was rubbish and that is why, great another problem sorted!! Also thanks for the warning on the safety issue regarding the installation of these types of tanks as i am not too...

If i can lose the header tank on top of of the tank then that will be great for me! I guess i needed like for like as in i needed a tank with the ball cock system at the top of the tank but if i can get a different tank that will be ok for my flat then i will start looking about for one then...
