    WINTER HOLIDAYS & FROZEN PIPES ANY TIPS PLEASE

    BLOCKED DRAIN WASHER DRAINING INTO TOILET *PLEASE HELP*

    WORCESTER CONDENSING BOILER IS THIS 'IGITION LOCKOUT' ??????

    First you seem quite confident 'ITS YOUR FAN' Then you say it could about 3 million other causes. Can anyone therefore explain how it sometimes work and how sometimes we have to 'reset'. Surely if something is broke, 'its broke'.
