    worcester bosch boiler disconnected today by engineer

    Best bet is to ask an installer for advice. I'd be looking for the easiest upgrade possible. I had one recently that took me half a day for a 25m run by using the right materials. You could talk to the original installer but I doubt you'll get a lot of joy if he wasn't conscientious enough to...

    Hot Air System

    The thermostat for the hot water will be in the circulator attached to the warm air unit. I would say that the type of heating is probably already reflected in the asking price.

    worcester bosch boiler disconnected today by engineer

    The original installer was in the wrong. It's a common problem unfortunately. You need to contact a gas safe registered engineer and get them to come out and give you a price to fit the correct sized pipe.

    A gas safe registered engineer with the relevant LPG qualification for the sort of dwelling you are fitting it in would be a good start. Then you can ask for their recommendation.

    Mortar used to seal Urastone asbestos flue pipe sections?

    Which goes against the advice generally given for asbestos. If it's in good condition it is generally better to leave in situ as removal can lead to fibres being released.

    Glow worm micron 50FF switches on when it shouldn't

    Plugging the Oven In.

    For your own safety I would get another gas installer in to connect the gas properly as well. Not only should the wall plate elbow be fixed to the wall it is in completely the wrong place. The bayonet fitting should be sited so that the hose hangs down in a u shape with no stress or strain on...
