Firstly it was stupid not taking note in the first place! Secondly, the baffles are a doddle as far as taking out & putting in go (compared to what you guys work with) did realise they had to be staggered but didn't know what way round the first row went. Know now :lol: Big Thanks

Must hunt up the manual!

???

I'm sure it's been asked before? What way round do I put the baffle plates back in after cleaning my warmflow boiler. Holes to the flue side, other side, staggered or does it matter? Thanks :D

Anybody else want to give a bit of input? :lol:

Hi guys, Bought a second hand fireplace. Currently there is no fire back in the chimney opening. The fireplace inset is cast iron with a cast iron back. I've been told I can put it in without filling it up behind but someone else reckons I still have to fill it up at the back? The...

Hi folks, Extractor fans circuit board has burnt out. Is it possible to just bypass the circuit board & forget about the timer function, or does the circuit board do more than that?

Have a floor laminated right up to a wall I want a new fireplace against. Any ideas on how to do a cutout for a hearth without lifting the whole floor? Thanks

Hehehe, very witty :lol: Was looking in the garage & found a tin of Thompsons roof seal, does concrete the lot. It's black but who'll see it up there :shock: Probably similar to what you're talking a bout and it's uv resistant & breathable.

Definitely not condensation! Never had it until now & wall patchy with efflorescenses & bubbling paint. Other than the likes of Thompsons water seal which I've found useless, what else is there? I've seen actual crown seal but it seems to be American, so not available here. Apparently...

Hi guys Putting a tumble dryer vent hole through a cavity wall . Are most tumble dryers vented on the left ( looking at wall) my last two were. Should I put the hole left or central? Thanks

I've seen a friend with a similar boiler with flue gases going up a chimmney flue and his air intake coming in seperately straight through a wall from the outside. Would that be possible to do, keep existing straight through the wall flue for ex-gases and another new vent for fresh air?

Hi guys my warmflow oil boiler has a reillo g3 burner with a balanced flue, year 95. the problem I have is it won't run with the air intake pipe connected as it seems to choak the burner but it runs fine with the pipe disconnected. I have replaced the blast pipe o ring but made no...

Well I was thinking more along the lines of a portable pump that I could use now and again when needed & for friends. Only needed when run out of oil & don't say it (don't run out of oil)

Hi, I'm having problems getting heating oil from ground floor to first floor were the boiler is. Ran out of oil and recked oil pump trying to get it up to the boiler again ( lack of oil to lubricate). Is there an alternative way of getting oil up to the boiler without using the actual boilers...
