    Electric Cooker wiring

    right, It just seemed strange that the cable to the oven is oven cabling (not sure on exact thickness) and 2.5 mm was also going into the fuse. The 2.5 mm comes in from outside in conduit, and it looks ugly, so I was trying to get rid of it. The wire goes into the soffits of the roof, which...

    Central heating problems

    Vented system, condensing boiler, Baxi SP50 I think. The boiler has kicked into life, but it keeps shutting down and turning on, I think it might be due to air in the system. How do I get it out? There isn't a bleed plug on the boiler.

    Central heating problems

    I drained my system earlier, and refilled it. My boiler will fire up and heat the water, but it will not fire up and heat the central heating water. Why is this? It was working until i bled the pump and then it cut out, and has not come on since!! What should I do?
