    Do you have to be CORGI to change a pump?

    interesting debate. but in the end it must come down to........... unfortunately, no mater how unlikely, if the worse were to happen there would be no distinction between gas & water side when the HSE had to investigate.

    i've definitely been supplied with nasty thin wall stuff from Plumb City in the past. i was doing a lot of work in my own house at the time & i'm afraid my customers got lumbered with that stuff.

    Boiler kettling

    what you propose should be fine. pumping a different chemical through the heat exchanger alone would be better but would be an awful lot of work.

    problem with sime planet super 4wm

    BAXI Combi Boiler timer

    it is that simple. behind the knockout on the boiler there will be wires waiting for you in a connector block. the L & N power the clock motor & the other two are the live to the heating in & out. there will be a simple diagram with the clock. i would recommend the simpler electro mechanical...
