Completely agree, but when they get the invoice and it goes quiet, then only suggest it's not working when he rings them? Anyone normal would be back on to the installer and say so in the first instance.

Frost stat kicking in? Seriously? I know it's colder further oop norf than I am, but it's far from frost stat weather, or it's set up wrong. If you think they are taking the ****, send a reminder, then a final demand. Then issue court papers. Don't mess about. Easy to do with MCOL. Shouldn't...

Ring your landlord and tell him to get it sorted.

Some Muppet (moi)got a couple of wires wrong in the bell box. I've started needing reading glasses. Climbed up the scaffolding without them. Thought I could see what I was doing. Obviously not! All good and working fine. Thanks for the replies. Much appreciated.

Just got round to having a go. Wired exactly as shown but I've got a bell tamper fault. Found one of the bell box tamper wires clamped on insulation. Thought it was that, but no. Still got a tamper fault. Any suggestions please? Tia

going up tomorrow after work, will let you know how i get on.(y)

hi chaps, hope someone can help. i have an old gardtec370, working fine. wifey has insisted that the aging bell box is replaced due to our shiny new rendering. i bought a texecom premier odyssey 1e from city electrical factors, they told me it would be the same......the orignal bell box is a...

The great British public....... Options given. Choice made . First job was a gash. So only pump to worry about. Out of warranty as they've never had it serviced. Second job is an alpha...... should have put 20 tins in!:whistle:

you need to dose according to water volume, 1 tin in a 200l system probably wont work.

I'd weigh up the cost if the specialists against 10 tins of miracle seal. I've used this twice in desperation. Both big houses, owners refused to have flooring and boards up. 10 tins in each system. No further problems. Proper fix is to find it and cure it.

Yup, along with the brown stains around the speedfit fittings. Looks like multiple tiny leaks, Evaporating away when the heating is on. Could be why the sub floor looks dry.

Drain dye i have used is luminous green. Powder is red, changes when wet. I once lit up a whole hospital basement that was flooded when I dropped a tub full. It turned a local lido green, police and fire engines turned up. They thought it was a chemical leak.

Theres a few spots of verdigris on some copper pipe , possible pinholing.

De pressurize the boiler. Whip the bleed vent out of the top. Pour a big scoop of drain tracing dye in. Bleed vent back in and top it up and bleed. Run boiler look for coloured water inside and outside the boiler and under the floor. Doesn't matter what colour drain dye used.

Youve got to wonder if some clown has left a trv under the floor when that radiator was blanked off.....

i advise my customers to cancel their DD, pay the amount into a savings account. pay me £75 for a service +parts each year, and leave the DD running. as the amount builds they have a reserve for repairs etc. a new boiler usually has a manuf. guarantee so the amount builds up quickly. they are...

there should be a way to isolate the boiler in the garage tbh. if an engineer was working on it someone in the house could turn it on again and give him a shock. does sound like both blokes have messed up though. part slingers by the sounds of it.

i would have charged you for diagnosing the fault, the cost of the part +20% plus a charge for fitting it. £227all in. he's cheap. maybe the magic parts fairy was on strike and he couldnt get the part to your place without picking it up himself and getting it back to you? you must think his...

Check the bellows, button and tubes are ok before you start faffing about with that.

Not happening at mine for a while. Fook that.
