    Gutter advice

    Jack, that's not gutter mate! Jack that's not a good looking job someone has done on your soil stack. Jack, do get some of the holes in your wall sorted before a squirrel turns up.

    Another HIve instalation....

    It could be possible, I say could, but not as easy. Don't just try moving the wires about, you could do damage to the boilers pcb.

    Another HIve instalation....

    Me again. So it's a duel channel hive and not a single. Yours is to control your hot water heating and your central heating independently . So what is your system, Y or S? Have a look near the hot water cylinder and see what type of controlling valves you can see. Might be good to take a couple...

    Another HIve instalation....

    There is quite a lot to read about fitting the Hive as a DIYer. Do have a Google. One thing that might help is if you are not going to remove the old room stat, then try turning it up to its Max and leave it at Max, now try controlling the boiler via your new Hive. This might be the answer to...

    Another HIve instalation....

    You need to have the correct Hive for your type of heating/hot water. The Reciver is dedicated to the home owner and comes with a scratch card number to allow set-up. This is because personnel information is routed via the Hive Receiver. If the Reciver you have has been used you will need a new...

    Radiator getting hot when Hot Water on

    Expect after the reading you have been doing about the valve, you will know that if the valve has a bump in its top lid, it makes it more serviceable.

    Poorly installed boiler

    I would not want it blowing over at my door, I expect others would not like either . Consideration for others I say. Treat people the way you would like to be treated. This plume must have a little bit of dangerous gas and that's why there are regs. It's more then reasonable to be asked.

    Poorly installed boiler

    I would imagine that if it was the other way round, you would not like your neighbors flue gases blowing onto your property, with these dangerous gases near your door. Your flue but also your neighbor health and wellbeing. Get it fix would be the right thing to do, regs or no regs.

    Swap Randall 4033 with Hive Active

    I also had a very old control/programmer on my Yplan heating system and updated it to Hive Active heating and hot water. Don't know much at all about Nest, think Nest and Hive are much the same after doing some reading before I went for Hive. I found Hive ( fitted now a few months ) easy to...

    This is why you should never stand a cylinder on concrete !
