I rarely come across a float valve that is a different length, has any thing been moved, like a thicker doughnut washer?

Usually, yes, sometimes older models may have a different thread, you,ll soon see when you dismantle it.

Yorkie fittings are twice the price of end feed, but you choice. You only need a clean, dry pipe to make a good joint, and a smear of flux. Always best to wipe off any excess flux before you solder, and always wipe the joint with a damp cloth after soldering to remove any flux residue. There...

Panels everytiome for me, did mine 4 yrs ago, and they look just as good today. As Madrab says, worth paying more for hard backed ones, they're very robust.

Turn off the cold water supply to boiler underneath overnight, if the pressure remains constant, then you will almost certainly have a pin holed plate heat exchanger allowing mains cold water to enter heating system.

As you have a Worcester boiler, it's most likely that the pump is wired directly to the boiler, rather than from the wiring centre. The idea is that the boiler keeps the pump running for some time after firing to dissipate heat, others will correct me, but I think it runs until a certain temp is...

Not ideal, would prefer soldered joint, but there are millions like that

It forms part of the non return valve inside.

As long as the fire passes a flue flow, and spillage test, no additional ventilation is required, as the heat input is less than 7kw.

If the display reads 00 then it hasn't got a call for heating from the themostat?programmer.

Part costs £48, 5 min job to change

Told ya:giggle:

My money would be on blocked condensate pipe/trap, or spark generator, you'll need a gas man in for those.

Those plastic things are pants, change it for a brass one.

Probably just one of those things, just bite the bullet and change the whole valve, they're not expensive.

You can buy "corner valves" for that, they look much neater

Does it continue if you isolate the cold feed to the boiler?

I've used quite a few ESi valves, have had no issues with them. Yet

How did you lose it?
