Can depends on the size of the boiler Say it was a 10kw load this equates to roughly 45amps Base this on a rate of 6.26p per kwh you are looking at about 63p an hour to run over 24 hrs this would cost £15.12 per day if used at full power continuously Realistically its probably about...

Alright I am not a gas engineer so shouldnt comment But what is the harm in an apprentice or competent diyer running there own gas pipes as long as they don't do the final connections and the work is tested and signed off by a pro installer ? :?

Depends on the size and weight of the boiler and the type of wall. Could get away with no 10's and brown plugs might need chemical anchors or rawl bolts. I even seen a couple where the mounting bracket is stuck to the wall with gripfill with only a few screws put in as a token gesture :shock:

Lovely I will take a look tomorrow Thank you

Because I was given it brand new in the box but if it is fit for purpose then I have lost nothing :cry:

Yeah sorry about that it is a combi a very old one but a combi all the same. I am assuming the earth is being used a neutral as it is connected into the neutral terminal on the time clock. I already have the new clock and stat given to me by an old friend and was hoping to use it so I...

I afraid you have lost me there with "S" plan. The hot water is instantaneous so the clock which has a built in stat only controls the room temperature and the heating times. It is a rotary clock with pull out segments

Nope green and yellow are being used as neutral I am going to use 5 core flex to get over this issue :? Can't post a picture as I have just moved house and the camera is all boxed up somewhere sorry :( I think the clock came originally as part of a boiler pack with the vaillant when it...

I posted this in the plumbing forum without reply thought it was the best place but obviously not can you boy helps I am not overly clued up on boiler controls My old boiler timeclock with stat is playing up and I want to replace it it has no makers name but says VRT-QT under the cover...

Forgot to say boiler is a combi so no hot water control required just need a stat to regulate temp and a clock to override it when heating is being called for out of timed hours

Hi guys thanks to all those who have helped in the past and I am sorry to say I need advice again My old boiler timeclock with stat is playing up and I want to replace it it has no makers name but says VRT-QT under the cover It is wired in 3 core and earth as follows Green/yellow is...

If you are happy to do it just do it. certainly wouldn't hurt to replace the cable with 10mm especially as you have uprated the breaker. For peace of mind if you wish he could save up for a sparks to check it out in the new year. I think this is the lesser of two evils if someones...

The only really high load in the board is the cooker circuit which will stay put in the old board until I swap the tails. I am working in a tiny under the stairs cupboard and I am 6ft 4" so don't want to hang around under there too long

I think they are Turkish :shock: Howdens are tied up with them for all their electrical appliance. I think Lamona also manufacture Beko and Zanussi or they share parts at least. Here's my tap...

Parts Centre ? (part of Plumb Centre)

Saying that though just got a Lamona swan neck monobloc with my kitchen from Howdens and it is a really nice tap and is great quality for £75

Already replied :mrgreen:

Pipes are cold and the pump is hot :? Unscrew the cap on the pump and gently stick a screwdriver in it, if it makes a rattling contact you know the pump is spinning

She is a condenser :(
