It only rises a bit when the heating is on I think, maybe 0.2 bar, but most of our heating is the underfloor heating. It seems to rise most when heating water, ie when the shower is on, then it rises about 0.6 -0.8. I've never seen it above 2 bar.

You live and learn Steve.

I have noticed some copper coloured discharge on the floor directly under the pressure release valve. Not very much, but looks like its released at some point over the last few weeks. Could this be related/ a symptom?

Thanks, where would you insert this? Is this something I could do myself, or need a plumber? Cheers

Hi, I moved into a new property 4 months ago, which is heated by way of normal radiators in the old part of the house and underfloor heating in the new extension. These are fed from a standard gas combi boiler. T the end of last year, i had to top up the combi boiler (up to 1.5 bar) as...

Thanks to those who posted. Bit embarassing really. There was another consumer unit at the back of the kitchen cupboard, I didn't know about (only moved in 4 months ago). This had a tripped circuit, due to a blown lamp in the bathroom. So its all sorted, storm in a teacup... Thanks anyway.

Please ignore this post, I phoned aqualisa and it always goes into this state after the powers been off. Theres no issue with the shower. The shower is the only thing that does work in the main bathroom, its on its own fused spur apparentely, so I guess its another place to look as everything...

Another issue this morning. The Electric shower, which is in the main bathroom where nothing else works, is behaving strangely. Its an Aqualisa Axis Digital, with a 3amp spurred fused switch controlling the digital control unit in the loft (this controls the flow and temp etc) The boost...

We have 2 recessed downlights on the landing, and a set of 3 lamps in a pendant. The pendant works and the recessed downlights don't. The main bathroom, where the condensation was, is totally out, the recessed landing lights are outside the main bathroom, and are out as mentioned. The...

Where should I test with the multimeter? The terminals where the GU10 lamps ususally plug into or somewhere else? Thanks,

The front of the house is about 100 years old but has been re-wired in last 5 years or so, the back has a new extension, just over 1 year old. The area affected spans both parts. This is what i've done recently:- I tried to replace a light bulb in the upstairs en-suite (PAR16 bulb...

I think my main problem will be the sheer number of fittings that don't work. Prob 20-25 including extractor fans etc. Trying to find where the fault is could take a long time.. I think I'm going to need an electrician, and I think it might get expensive. They are mostly ceiling recessed GU10...

Thanks for the reply, so all the lights on the circuit can potentially work up to the point there is a loose connection or a fault? Not sure of the terminology, but if this circuit covers multiple rooms, there may be one connector somewhere that causes everything after this point to stop...

I have a bit of an issue. I went to the bathroom this morning and noticed the lights were not working. We have 4 GU10 downlights in there. This was a couple of hours after we had showers, at which point everything was working fine (lights extractor fan etc). There was alot of condensation...

Why oh why did aqualisa support line not mention it either!! I phoned them twice, 1st bloke said the boiler was under powered for the shower, the 2nd said the controller in the loft could be faulty and for £250 they would replace it for me... I specifically asked if it was adjustable and...

[/url] Yes, this is the document I saw, got me thinking, so I checked in the unit and it was set incorrectly. basically its like a small shoe box size in the loft (or similar) theres 1 screw to open the lid and inside are some circuitry and 2 small dials that can be adjusted with a flat...

Thanks to everyone who replied, I've managed to sort the issue :D It turns out I've been given false info from Aqualisa. They said it was just a black box in the loft which can't be adjusted. On closer inspection, I removed the cover and there are settings dependant on boiler type...

Thanks for the info, anyone know if an Ariston e-combi has one of these screws to reduce the flow, and if so where? Thanks again,

I don't think you can adjust the temp range. There is a "black box" in the loft which has the cold and hot feeds going into it, then the shower feed comes out the other end. I spoke to aqualisa support and they said the thermostat etc is all electronically controlled and cannot be altered. My...

Thanks, I'll have a look when I'm back home. Where would you fit a pressure balancing valve should one be needed? Thanks,
