Ok, it'll have to be the naff way for me, en suite is directly above with a tiled floor!

Cheers for the idea EFL but I dont really want to pull the ceiling down to get to the other end of the existing wiring...I just plastered and painted it!

Hi, Yep the run is within the 150mm band at the top of the room and also horizontal from the fused spur im fitting in the cupboard. On your other point, I thought as much hence my question. Could you help me out with an accepable, maintainence free method here that I can bury? Maybe crimping?

Picture below :) P.S - The existing cable it just wapped up in a terminal block temporarily while I work on the rest of the room. Tom

Hi all, I'm replacing our kitchen. Just a minor electrical question since I was about to crack on and do something before I stopped and had a rare, sensible, moment and thought I'd better ask about this one before I do something silly. Anyway - simple situation. The old cooker hood/fan was...

Hi all :) Just fitting a new kitchen for the wife. The location of the cooker hood is about 12" from the location of the old hood, meaning that the hole through the external (cavity) wall isn't in the right place any more. Not wishing to make a mess trying to drill it out with loads of tiny...

Cheers guys loads of useful help there:D I love this site!!

Hello all :) I'm DIY replacing our entire kitchen - This will be the 4th time I've done a kitchen on my own so I'm confident with most of it. However, this time is the first time that I'm actually moving the location of the oven. Until now I've just used the existing electrical infrastructure...

Hi guys, me again. Thanks for all of the above - I've now hit the thanks button (hadn't seen it before!), I did appreciate it before though...great site! Anyway the Wallstar - a little update; - I had the local oil pro around the other day to service it. He set up the pressure & air settings...

Thnx guys- I used to be in Bristol...now norfolk! Will look at the electrode position. I cant actually see a NRV....only a fire valve which is at ground level a few feet from the burner...

Hi again all, I've deliberately resurrected this thread as my boiler woes have returned. For the last few weeks the Wallstar has been locking out - usually overnight. I was naughty and fiddled a bit with the air & oil pressure settings, (yes, without an analyser). Anyway, even after tweaking...

Cheers guys Fitted the coil, boiler appears to be running fine now :) Thanks very much

Just picked up a new pump (with new solenoid) since they had one in stock at my local. Will fit this afternoon and report back. Cheers for the test procedure, wil run that just beforehand. Tom

Ok cheers ill try and get one in town today and a new nozzle while im at it. P.s- could this be caused by a central heating prob inside the house? ....i.e a blocked pipe, or inefective pump for example?

When its running, there is a single air bubble sitting at te high point in the line no stream of bubbles, I think the feed from the tank is good.

Yep - certain now - Runs for 10 mins or so, then stops. Pressing the button (unlabelled) on the control box starts it up again for another 10 mins.

Arrgh! The boiler just ran for about 15 mins then gave up again. I just whipped out the photosensor and gave it a wipe, put it backand and pressed the button on the Satronic Control box and it fired up again. This has happened twice now....how can I figure out what is causing it to shut...

P.S - I don't have a pump, but the air bubble purged by itself through the pump (I guess this cant be good for the pump though!)

Cheers very much, I just took the burner off, gave the photo cell a wipe, and while I was there I followed the manual and did the service procedure cleaning the combustion head and nozzle etc. She then fired up straight away and is running fine now. Hopefully this won't come back! Thanks...

Further to that - I've just taken off the external boiler cover and noticed that there is a big air bubble in the supple pipe.......should I try to purge it out? (Note this is a wallstar - tank is below the level of the boiler....I thought that meant this boiler would 'suck' the oil...
