...quick update. I thought I would look at the water inlet I removed. It appeared to have some form of pressure regulator in the hose connector. I cut this off and drifted it out and drifted it in to the new one and surprise surprise it worked! Would appreciate (for my own sanity) that both of...

Hi there, Long time no post! I recently replaced the (3-way) water inlet on my LG Washer/Dryer (WD14030RD) as one of the solenoids had failed. All OK. I noticed at the time the dryer cover was corroded so I obtained a replacement and fitted this. All OK. Upon replacement I though I would run...

Thanks!

Hi there, When we moved in to our home about 5 years ago (new build) there was no manual left for the Kensal Gas Fire - Model K8187. I have tried to search online but this no luck. Any hints or tips as to where to try? I require it as we are looking to rent out our house and I...

Thanks - let's hope that they have not been at the brandy too! :D

...nope nor has it been at the brandy...

Hi there, We have been overseas for about three months and are now back in the UK. Whilst we were away our heating was left on etc. and all is OK. We have hot water and central heating but our boiler sounds like it is "snoring". You hear the boilder light, run for a while (all nice and...

I saw this video: http://www.youtube.com/user/TheTomplum#p/u/6/7egZeipktDw linked from this topic in the Plumbing Forum: //www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=237987 Just in case you missed it!

Hi there, We have a little used toilet in the the en-suite of the spare bedroom. We flush it every so often to "keep it fresh" but otherwise it is rarely used. I have noticed lately whilst it flushes OK etc. the handle (lever?) does not come all the way back up. You can lift it back up and...

...it turns out our £15/month contract with BG that covers a service of the heating system (inc. boiler) once a year that I signed up to when our little one was born includes repairs for a fixed fee of £50 per problem. So this year with the service and PCB I'm up..... I have learnt you can...

Thanks. Just incase anybody returns this via the search function in the future British Gas came out today (for £50 fixed fee) as part of our service contract with them and changed the PCB. Maybe too soon to tell but all is OK. To give BG credit where it is due, I called at 10 and the...

Hi there, I have I search the forum on this error and think it appears to be the PCB so I need to get somebody in, or might be it be something else? The red light flashes on the boiler (the green light is out), it I hit the reset button all is OK, maybe for a day or so, maybe for weeks. We...

Thanks - on the "plate" on the front of the fire it states: S/N GB8187100919 Pin No. 046BN0673 AP Cat BAS Gas Type/Cat G20/I2H Gas Pressure 20mB Heat Input Gross 6.8kW CE 0086 02 PR 0495 The latter two are not on the "plate" but near to the ignition switch. Is that any use...

Hi there, We live in a "new-build" house, that was constructed about four years ago. In the lounge there is a Kendal Flame (Model k8187) gas fire that has a flue (or so I believe). We would like to replace the fire for something more in line with our tastes but do not have a manual or...
