Also a few more questions I need to ask. Do all of your radiators get at least warm when the stove is on? How hot are the nearer radiators? Do they have thermostatic valves fitted? Sam

Hi pioner, What speed is the pump set on? Assuming the heating pipes are connected to the boiler correctly, does the hot water get very hot? Have you any way of measuring the temperature of the hot water or pipes? It is possible to add a motorised valve to the hot water cylinder to...

Thought I may jump in on this one. Can you just clarify: Does the water boil in the stove when trying to heat the radiators or only at the time you installer was present? (first post) Does the wood burner heat the cylinder without the immersion on to a good temp? Heat leak radiator has...

looks like 2" waste, nothing spectacular, can be had from most merchants.

Where abouts are you? A straight combi for combi can be had for less than that around here, that sort of money could see you a nice vaillant 831 and new controls if the gas is adequate and existing flue terminal complies Sam

Varies week by week depending on whats being taken out. Was it combi's in particular you were after? Would have to see whats in the pile at the time. Maybe worth having a word with the lad's down your local tip. Ask them to put aside any boiler that come in and throw them a tenner when they...

How many do you want? :lol: Could get you half a dozen or more if your willing to travel 2 hours :D

What is your reasoning for the above suggestion? Sam

I'd be checking the pump before anything else.

As far as I was aware, fire proofing is not a requirement unless the building exceed's 2 storeys. Is this the case? Boiler will require high and low vent's for cooling purposes but depending on which boiler you have fitted, will depend on vent sizes and wether or not they go direct to cutside...

At a complete guess, possibly due to the gas valve used, outside of its adjustable range? 40kw on LPG sounds expensive to me anyway :lol:

Cheap pond pump? 500 ltr/s per hr? only has to last an hour and a half before it breaks and your done and saves breaking a drill in the process? Sam

Not familiar with this boiler. Is there no way of being able to reduce the output of the boiler in any of the menu's?

Yep as above you need to be turning those round taps Sam

There are at least 2 varieties of built in filling loop on this boiler from memory. Are there 2 black round taps with a very short piece of pipe inbetween? If so turn one on fully, then slowly use the other one to control the water entering the heating system. Once the pressure is between...

With all due respect, you should be allowing enough room for the meter to be easily removed and replaced. It will need to be removed when working on the gas pipework/appliances in your house. Plan your kitchen around the meter so that this is possible and you have no problem later on down the...

The boiler has an unvented cylinder intergrated. Re-positioning it is possible, but the flue postion and routing, along with D2 pipework for the unvented cylinder need to be considered carefully. I have no idea on the reliability or performance of these appliances so couldn't recommend a...

Probably just needs a new diaphram and water section service. Sam

How high is the tank from the highest point on the heating system (excluding vent/feed pipe)? Sounds like a push fit cap end, wouldn't worry about it :D Sam

Hi, You could use a combi in conjunction with a vented or unvented cylinder. The combi could provide instant hot water too one or more low flow rate hot water outlets (e.g kitchen tap, wash hand basin, washing machine etc) and the vented cylinder could provide HW for showers, baths etc...
