I bought some in PTS the other day and there is an offer on for full bundles - Under £3 a meter

If you get the job, make sure that your tools and the pipe (If your responsibility) are well insured if working in Hackney :x

Glad to be of help Steve :D

Just had a thought, do you mean the circular in built timer? If so do not unwire it, simply move the slider switch on the timer to 1 i.e permanently on, this will alow the RF2 to take over. Steve

Martin You need to remove the mechanical timer and all wires from it to the pcb. The RF2 is a programmable room stat and will enable you to control the times on/off of your heating and also the room temperature. Make sure that you follow the instructions to the letter when comissioning the...

PS - It doesn't matter which way round the wires go. Steve

Hi Remove the brown link as shown in the photo and connect the wires from 1 & 3 in the reciever. Steve

No need for suplimentry earth bonding since the 17th edition has been in place. You [b]must install a RCD to either the boiler or at the board (With exceptions) Steve

I had the same problem some time ago. I installed a Suprima which developed a leak on the compression fitting on the flow. The boiler was under a contract with BG and they failed to notice the leak and rust over the next 3 years of servicing. They then condemed the boiler and the stated that...

I second that. Steve

This is a example of poor wiring. The central heating system should only be served by one 3 Amp fused connection unit which ideally would be sited in close proximity to the boiler. It's not to current standards but like many thousands of others. Just be wary if working on the system that it is...

The megaflow should have a pressure reducing valve which will regulate the pressure to 3.5 bars. The flow is the problem in your case. You need in excess of 20 lpm for the system to work properly. An incoming mains of 15mm is insufficient and the installer should have explained this to you...

Sorry BF, i hope you have got the answers that you needed. The BG thing is a hot topic on any thread. Steve

because they are competion. No they are not Because we can. I take it you've never been stumped by a boiler and tried a part just in case? You can because you are ripping people off on price Admit have tried a part on very rare occasion ???? that makes no sense :lol: i.e If you...

Quote - bg only use contractors wen their own installation teams are booked up and whats to say the random local private engineer is going to be any better than the contractor which bg do use? If you are self employed and good at your job, why would you want to sub contract from BG? Why...

Steer well clear. BG use contractors to do their installs and they will need paying along with a vast profit for BG. You have no choice with installer and it is a lottery as to how good they are. My advice is to use a local installer and get three separate quotes. Your BG insurance cover will...

The answer is to find out why the pipe is dripping and not to alter it. The pipe is connected to the pressure relief valve in the boiler which should operate if the sysytem becomes over pressured at 3 bars. Under normal running conditions the pressure guage on the boiler should be around 2 bars...

George, they do have their uses, such as in basements where the soil pipe is above ground. I assume that the pipe is 21.5mm plastic and not 22mm copper. Either way because it is at the top of the stack you could use a 22mm push fit stop end (eg speedfit etc) The pipe used is generally for...

Is the shower a new installation? It will have a temperature adjustment and should tell you how to adjust in the installation manual. If not, contact Gainborough and they will tell you how to make the adjustment. Steve

It's ok to do that but the access to the pump must require the use of tools. i.e the bath panel must be screwed on requiring the use of a screwdriver.
