    Baxi bermuda with no separate feed and expansion cistern

    We have a baxi bermuda that has been in the house for thirty years and has given up the ghost (needed a new valve that's no longer available). What seems very odd is that the system is gravity fed with a pumped radiator circuit but it has no separate feed and expansion cistern. I'm guessing...

    Pipe size

    Thanks so much everyone. Particularly chrishutt who is flying the flag for the correct use of the apostrophe in the English language. As it goes I rarely get things wrong, but I have this time. There should however be an apostrophe though: '70s. I think I was thinking the pipe belonged to...

    Old Baxi Boiler not firing!

    Old Baxi Boiler not firing!

    Thanks for that. Yes it's a long green resistor, I guess then if that's gone, or the valve has gone then I'm really in trouble. Can I simply wire out the resistor if it's not working (I've been told the reduction in voltage was to stop radio interferance). As for radents, are these the...

    Old Baxi Boiler not firing!

    One's for the fire and the other is for the boiler. I don't know which is which. It's a Baxi Bermuda 5 if that helps!?
