its a bit weird in LAV and RPH situations and usually the company who build/modify them get away with not being gas safe as they are not connecting them to a gas supply. I connect up Park Homes which come pre-installed with full central heating and a boiler on the wall. In the past I have found...

looking at where it is its probably the low voltage switching cable, so whilst its messy and a bit slapdash, its not (potentially)dangerous in anyway.

more importantly you've picked a 28kw boiler and 2 24kw boilers, so they're not evenly matched.

its probably doing it when the pump speed drops. its a 2 speed fan. for hot water and for much of the heating cycle it will prob be on max speed, for overrun it slows down hence the difference

no its not ok, its classed as immediately dangerous. You must get someone in to disconnect it. im sure if you find someone local they will give you a good price to disconnect and reconnect and probably won't be much different to just the reconnecting.

pumps gone into self destruct timer mode. I give it 3 months.

i agree if your selling just go for something cheap that will still be fairly reliable. potterton apollo, ideal mini, glowworm easicom or betacom, heatline capriz.

well normal action would be a) check the body is moving freely, b) check the head is moving correctly c) get the multimeter out and check you have power where you should and not where you shouldn't. You've kinda gone straight for the kill in fault finding land.

on a vertical dan? should look interesting :P

yes you have the wrong head. also make sure the valve body is free(it should turn by hand) and doesnt pass when closed

Regards the BG boilers, the BG330 is a Glowworm 30Hxi and the BG330+ is a flexicom with an Ultracom display panel specially made for BG. I would not buy a well used HXI or 330, the heat exchanger will probably already be dirty.

ive got an ultracom 24hxi in my lockup, had 3months use, but been sat still for a few years. need to shift it at some point. Although generally would be quite wary of fitting 2nd hand gear.

where's the leak coming from? and whats wrong with an angled screwdriver ffs. even a bit and a small adjustable would do the trick

Agile you talk some proper rubbish sometimes. We are talking about a shower block. 10l/min for 12mins? 12mins? This is not a bathroom where someone wants to relax. 6l/min would be adequate for maximum usage as the time usage of all showers at once would be 5% at best, especially with push...

not these days. customers can get boilers just as cheap as we can, sometimes cheaper as they are prepared to shop around with online suppliers

haha yeh and I've downgraded a few ARs in my time as well :wink: You will always get one or two guys on a patch who think they're covering their ar5e when actually what they are doing is just creating work for everyone else :evil:

you should turn it around on them. if they have been servicing it every year ask them why they have been letting your parents use an unsafe boiler all this time putting their lives "at risk". They might change their mind all of a sudden :P

no it would not cause it to leak or cause any damage. Just wouldn't work
