Softus and Nickso are the main culprits for wasting peoples time during this thread, like I said before offer sensible advice or dont post at all, causing slanging matches is pointless

Nickso are you an incompetent cook aswell then ? Raise your standards and learn to look after yourself !

Bigburner well said, they are very effective boilers. Softus be quiet you are posting with aimless text once again, you seem to come to life when it involves trying to demean others, why not be constructive with advice and stop wasting peoples time. Cheers,

Hi, The best torch on membranes are Bauder K5K capping sheet (mineral) and Bauder G4E underlayer, lifespan of over 45 years I believe witha 20 year guarantee. Expensive but first class. Bauder Ltd Regards,

Ok Agile and Softus no need for a slanging match ! BigBurner the thermal store IMI Range Powermaxes, although dated, are good units when maintainted properly. The issue has been a lack of qualified decent engineers to maintain them !!! Softus why do you continue to get to uptight ? You...

Softus I started to read your post, and then realised again it was aimless rambling, with no structure or purpose, or actual 'aim'. Stop re-igniting this thread all the time, like I mentioned before the creator has lost interest or already solved his problem with/without our help now.

Softus, the only thing you have successfully 'highlighted' is how annoyed you get over a post that even the question creator is not bothered about anymore !!! Why not help out in some other threads instead of writing aimless text in this thread aimed at me all the time. Simond has managed...

Good advice CLF-Gas

Softus stop getting upset, why keep pursuing this, the poster clearly isn't waiting on advice anymore, so stop cluttering the thread up with aimless text. Simond, same goes for you. Well done everyone on keeping the thread so active !

Well done on all the good advice everyone, hopefully sufficient help has been provided.

Nickso, yes thats fine, you provided advice based on the initial information provided. Its a shame the poster hasn't given anmore feedback, anyway I'm sure he's decided what action to take now.

Softus why are you getting so carried away ? You seem more bothered than the boiler owner !!! Just move on to a new topic, and then you won't see the need to keep hijacking this thread will you. Cheers,

Softus keep up, I wasn't recommending DEFINITELY repairing the boiler, I was trying to point out that the assumption to replace whole units is made too often without justification, from this thread you cannot guarantee that the item is not repairable. Plus, who says the owner will be in the...

Simond must be another person who likes to replace boilers regardless then. Easy money....

Not repairing a boiler because it is 17 years old is not grounds for a replacement, and recommending boiler replacements without a full diagnosis is jumping the gun slightly. FACT

'Hasty' even, Anyway the owner doesn't seem too worried now, so perhaps the issue is resolved, let's forget it. Cheers,

Nickso, I don't deny you may be knowledgeable on the boiler, recommending a replacement without seeing it and assuming it cannot be replaced by a text description means you are being hasting. All I am saying is it is possible it could be mended, how would you know for sure it must be replaced ???

Nickso are you an expert ? You appear to be talking nonsense, the poster hasn't made it totally clear what the defect actually is, but apparantly its a cast iron case for replacing the whole boiler for £2-3 grand.

Simond is there a reason why you are recommending replacing a boiler that can probably be mended for a minimal cost, or is it standard practise to replace everything regardless just because it may be 15 years old plus ? 99% of engineers want to replace these boilers because they are not...

Don't replace this boiler !!!!! They are good boilers, which engineers shy away from, don't let them rip you off !!!!!!!!!!!
