That's a good point jajodu and worth a try given the amount of motors that have been replaced.

So, start by cleaning out the small tank, empty as much as poss and then wipe clean. Leave empty and as said either cut out the tee if the magnet sticks or follow ChrisR set of instructions ( FAQ 12 ) I've used ChrisR instructions as my Tee is in a very bad place and it worked. By the way, did...

THIS IS A 2014 post

I take it that you have fitted the correct Hive. Just to be clear, yours should be Heating and Hot water and not the Hive for a combi boiler.

Ok, well it's fixed now. It was the Interference capacitor. Very easy to remove and replace and at about £20 + delivery not bad at all. Thanks again JohnD for taking an interest and offering advice. Pete

Looks like a job for tomorrow!

No signs of any water leak with the top off. Have pulled the machine out and alls dry on the floor. Didn't think about the door lock. I can see me slowly striping the machine down and checking for any cable damage due to rubbing.

Hi John, it trips right away.

Our machine trips the house breaker not the mcb. Have checked the plug and cable, both good. I read that most of this type of trip is the Interference capacitor or the heating element having an earth fault that trips the breaker. I will check the heating element but does anyone know if it's at...

We have one fitted now for over 14yrs, was the only option. As a rule of thumb, double flush/minimum paper has kept it sweet.

Thanks gasguru, I've experienced the poor other makes.

Best place to buy one as a replacement ?

Frost stat?

Hi Smart, this is an old post. You would be better if you started your own and include the boiler make and model, pictures of old stat, programmer etc.

Haha, this is very true Ianmcd. I asked about fitting Hive and was very pleased to get great feedback from the lads on here willing to give freely of their time and experience.

Expect it also depends on what you had before you have nest or hive fitted and what you need in the why of improvement to your heating and hot water control. Ours, old programmer and old room stat, both 30+ yrs Improvements needed, better control of the hot water Better schedule of both heating...

I would like to second what Alan said. Was offered it by BG for £149 fitted, this was during the yearly service.

Morning, a couple of things that might help. Add the make and model of your boiler and second, if you look, top right of the page, there is a "Search" box for questions. I expect that someone will also add more info to help you.

Thanks notsonewboy, that looks like it could do the job. Pete

Morning all. I'm looking for a replacement pan, white, fluted, low level, close coupled pan made by Doulton, to replace a damaged one. I've had a look on the internet but without any luck so far. Pete
