I am doing a refurb and heating engineer is fitting a new boiler in new location. We are thinking where condense pipe should go and route it should take. There is a soil pipe we have fitted under the stairs which is next to the Boiler room. Is it possible to attach onto this? What’s the best way

Hi I’m doing a bathroom fit. On floorboards and brick skimmed walls. Shower bath basin and toilet. the floors I’ll use hardie backer. for the walls I have used tanking kits in the past. I presume this is overkill? Should I just buy the tape which goes between the bath edge and under tile...

Hi. what’s the best value backer board for floors on a bathroom 1) needs to be water proof. 2) we don’t have under floor heating. 3) would be on floors boards. Hence if it can offer extra stability the better I would typically go for hardie backer 6mm. I wanted to see if there’s any good...

While your here. You advised me on a boiler for rental. We went for the intergas 24 xclusive. I’m just into the warranty and stuff. 12 years with a filter. Thanks for the help. I know you said rapid. But I save a bit of money on the thermostat rf reciever and the extra waranty just made it worth...

A friend fitted a intergas combi through a gas safe engineer. I noticed it does have 10mm clearance as per instructions. However there is some pipe work in this clearance. does this mean it’s not been fitted properly and hence any waranty claim would invalidate?

Sorry forgot to add pic

I am doing a rennovation and plan on putting flue with flume management kit as follows. Is this possible? Not sure if it makes a diff but I own alleyway(even though it’s shared a access)

Hi. I am doing a rennovation. Planning to keep original floorboards. The Electrition and plumber has opened a few floorboards. Is it worth where they are lifted that I put rock wool under them? I wouldn’t want to lift boards which aren’t open already. Would it make a jot off difference if I put...

I am doing a renovation . We are having a new electrics box and boiler in a store room at the front of the house. The electrician is coming back for a second fix. As you can see from the picture the flue will come out the side of the boiler. now the question is . The electrician has got wires...

Hi I am doing a rennovation for rads. for windows with a full 110cm, in thinking 60cm or 70cm high rads. What do you think?

What controls? Simple ones are fine

While we are here. For a renter property I am doing a refurb. What combi. 7 Rad’s, 1 bath/shower . Controls need to be easy(the controller location is next to boiler) eco less of a issue and not bother about open therm . Just a controller which functions with or without internet as per tenants...

I’m probably not phrasing my self properly. A previous 2 installer said would need to condensate with a pump to a drain pipe as we didn’t have a drain nearby. While the recent installer said we didn’t (and we can just use existing drain off point- changing it to plastic) - not sure why he said...

I am am edging towards the ncb 40kw. (The scheme we have access to don’t cover intergas) however only think is it’s only 7 years. WB life style has 12 years, but I presume you never mentioned this due to its lack of/poor open therm support?

Why was it suggested by some other Instalers that under new regulation. Given I didn’t have a drain nearby. I need a pump to take it up wall into the garage void and down behind the washing machine into the waste?

Ok the guy has been. My mum has a old boiler. Which has a copper pipe outside draining into drive. However we was told by other fitters this needs to be changed so it goes into a drain. However the person who came today said it’s fine...

Perfect. I read some threads a few years ago about a duel flue. This won’t have 2 flues?

Ok this is for mum. Who will get a subsidised install cause of a gov scheme. The guy doing survey said glow worm navien vaillant or WB. So we gonna select navien. I understand navien ncp come in 34w.. does this come in 1:10 modulation?

Ok great. So he only needs to fit the filter with the boiler - and doesn’t need to be intergas approved?

Xclusive 36 so 10 years. Or 12 years with intergas approved?
