Hi Banditbarron I have now confirmed with Baxi that I do NOT have the instant combi, sorry for the confusion. Am sending you a PM in regard to the parts you have. Thanks

Hi Banditbarron I stated that my baxi was the instant but after speaking to baxi tech I am not so sure. They have told me to call them with the GC number which I wrote down last night and they will confirm which model it actually is. After what you guys have said I hope it isn't the instant...

Hi Guys The boiler is the 105e which is the instant. I tried as Holty suggested and indeed the hot water was much much hotter and stayed that way with the tap open full bore. So I guess it's a case of either changing the diaphragm first and see or go for a replacement diverter valve. Is...

Hi Holty Thank you for that, I will try turning off the flow and return as you suggest in the morning before the heating comes on and then run the hot water and see. If it is the diverter valve/diaphragm could or would this have any impact of the efficiency of the central heating performance...

Hello Holty and gas4you Thanks for your replies. i have just tried the hot water before the heating kicks in and yes the heating flow pipe did get hot after a few seconds of the hot water tap running! The plumber did check the burner pressure and adjusted it as required, both of them also...

Thanks for the reply, yes I would have assumed they would check all possibilities but the last one kept saying that it was because we have had a cold spell and the mains in is colder than normal. This maybe so but I have never had this problem before in cold weather. Suppose I had better get...

Hi Was just wondering if any guys on here might be able to offer a suggestion or two on what might be wrong with my combi, as the last two plumbers couldn't. Over the last few months the temperature of the hot water is a lot lower when running the hot water tap at full flow. If I slow the...

Hi Rob884 Thanks for the quick answer. Makes sense :oops: Cheers

The answer to this may seem obvious to those in the know but I was wondering how TRV's cut down running costs of a combi boiler central heating system? I appreciate that they keep the temperature of the rad constant in a given room but how does this help the boiler? does it allow it to pump...

Hi Namsag Thanks for the advice, it will save me some grief from her in doors remaining with hot water. Cheers

I have to move a couple of radiators on our system and was wondering if after draining down the system, can you just use the hot water side of the boiler if you turn off the flow/return tap/s where the pipe connects to the Baxi and switch to hot water only? Many Thanks

Hi Chri5 Not sure if this will help but Sanyo do a 32" LCD flat panel monitor we sometimes use for CCTV installs. It has an IP rating for use outside and a buffet of input options. No audio or tuner but waterproof speakers are a plenty and he will probably connect to sky anyway. Sanyo...

If you plan to do this on a budget you are best using conventional annalogue cameras, good quality IP cameras will cost around 40% more than its annalogue brother. If its a house system then buy decent day/night cameras, fit at high level and run the cables in the loft and connect to a DVR with...

The alarm control panel must be connected to mains 240V via a 3amp fused spur, connecting directly to a 32amp ring main is just asking for trouble. Ideally the alarm should be on its own circuit but its not critical, its also best to stay away from lighting circuits, especially if fluro's are...

Many thanks bahco The penny finally dropped
