Slide to the right or left (can't remember) but definitely sideways

**** tap is 80 plus vat and any form of reasonable double that ! A tap for the price of <10 Costa Coffee?

I've searched high and low, so what actually qualifies as "building over" Is a patio that happens to have a shed land on it a "build over". All the things I can find suggest only below ground counts, that said the property I'm viewing is easily with 3mtrs and searches suggest no build over...

99% plus of my customers would be ****ed off if I left boilers, pumps, rads etc at their property. If things are relatively new I ask if they want them put ti one side. Occasionally they save a shower pump or towel rail for a relative. Customers who want to ebay old taps, pumps, boilers etc...

I think once in 25 years someone has asked to retain anything from one of my jobs. If you wanted it you should have asked to it and made it clear from the start - you are certainly an exception to the norm. My quotes allow to remove ALL waste from site and everything you describe is waste.

To use top entry you flip the rad and effectively fir upside down, the internal flow pipe injects the water to the bottom as it would to the top in a normal install. If I was installing with top entry I would use remote sensing TRV's or left and right tapings with the head turned out from the...

STELRAD Vita Deco and a fair few others allow top entry. Care needs to be taken to ensure both pipes can be vented

Balance of probability is it won't leak. If it does then you had a leak anyhow and the work has just highlighted the fact. If it was a massive issue, trust me you would know. And if If was a massive issue Watchdog or the customer crusaders Martin Lewis or Allbright would let you know. Yep a...

With the greatest of respect- if you pressure test and it leaks how are you any better off. In 25 years I've only had 2 maybe 3 significant issues. How many customers are going to pay you you to prove they have a leak prior - zero

Plate was full of install gunk then ! Poor show from you installer tbh

I'll be honest @johnny2007 in 30 years I have never known a boiler manufacturer swap a boiler. The contract the OP has is with the installer, which would be covered under consumer rights - this makes everything the installers problem. As an installer I have swapped two boilers as it was...

Did the installer complete the Benchmark commissioning in the boiler book? Just get Ideal out and they will repair if its a fault and advise if its an installation fault. Whatever the outcome this is the installers problem !

Ah, so this only happens on the bath? This is a common issue with some makes of combi (those without a flow restrictor). What size boiler is it 26, 32 or 40kw?

If they are coming 5 days from last Friday, I really can't see what the installers problem is. His cashflow issues aren't your problem, he probably paid on a trade account.....or is this a cash off the books job?

The OP hasn't confirmed if the water temperature increases with lower flow rates.

Undersized gas could cause this issue. As an installer they should be registering the boiler and arranging the warranty call. The boiler is working, just not quite how it should. If you factor in Xmas etc then the response time is reasonable. If it was dead out of the box I think replacement...

Tell him to F off, its part of running a business - **** happens and it costs you ££££. This is part of the reason our charges seem high, any decent business factors in the grief! If you reduce the flow through the tap does the temperature increase ?

I'm assuming you mean hot water temp not heating water temp?

No it is the standard one not universal

I do have a brand new Stuart Turner 3 bar twin I'm looking to offload cheap..
