you're not making me feel any better about this. maybe i'm naive, but i assumed that if i've got the gas safe cert., it must have all been fitted correctly

1. Because I wont get hold of him til next week, and I want to use my boiler over the weekend without puddles on my worktop. 2. I dont really know if it IS the condensate. There are 2 pipes on the right, as per the diagram above, and the one on the far right does have a plastic pipe running...

in the meantime, can you advise what sort of pipe i can buy from a big national (screwfix, wickes etc) to fix on and collect the water in a bucket?

er... prob too big a company for me... anyway that wasnt really my query- i was looking more for guidance on how it should be done

When my Vaillant ecotec system boiler is in operation, every so often I get a little gush of water from an opening underneath. highlighted on this picture Unlike the picture, the opening is not attached to any pipe! Is it the condensate drain? Surely it should be attached to something...

I've just had an extension done with a 2.5 x 3.5 'Succah' (conservatory) roof fitted ontop. See here http://www.succahrooflights.co.uk/single_roof_gut.html We moved in about a week ago and have noticed leaks in several places around the border of the succah roof. Builder has since sent in...

1. If I referred to builders earlier I meant my contractor. I believe he brought in a heating engineer/plumber to install it. 2. I did receive a Gas Safe certificate after installation (if that means anything?). Ominously, although it appears legitimate, I cannot find his number on the Gas...

you could try switching it on :idea: Would that be the electric switch next to the cylinder up in my loft? First time I've had to deal with a heating system myself

How do I do that? (yes - a total ignoramus here)

So if I understand correctly - all I need to do is turn those 2 valves so they are facing downwards, attach a filling loop from one to the other, and hope for the best?

Er.. is that a fill loop? I thought only combi boilers needed a filling loop... Am I correct that it would be connected to the CH flow and CH return valves respectively? I do vaguely recall seeing one there in the past, but it doesn't seem to be there anymore. The plumbers seem to have...

Just had new plumbing/CH system installed (condensing Vaillant boiler and unvented Telford Tempest cylinder) but when I turn it on, pressure is 0 (and I get the error message 'F22'). I recall my builder saying something about draining the system so that they could change/install the...
