Sorry to hear you have been having such issues which should have been put right by the plumbers you employed. The pipe work network could be the issue which is something that cannot be really commented upon from here as it has to be viewed in place. If the previous plumbers have correctly...

It all depends on a lot of information you have not provided. Make and model of boiler as some have aluminium components Radiators like wise what are they made of ? Hot water cylinder for example a Primatic unit has to be treated differently to an indirect unit. Pete

Looking at the pics in more detail I would say it was a very good price. Do not forget it also covers any call backs over the next 12 months. Pete

Value is in the eye of the payer :D Pete

Without viewing the job in person very hard to guesstimate. But the price you state for the work listed is not expensive. Pete

Your elements could be acting like a sacrificial anode. Pete

Just be careful and do not overtighten as the compression coupling has a sharp edge to accomodate the olive which will cut into the rubber seal and then leak. Pete

If all else fails you could always butcher a 3/4 "bath ceramic valve as it is usually a bit of grit that has scored the face of the shut off plate. Pete

Has the faulty stop cock been replaced or is it still in place possibly shut. How did the water co test the meter, was it over the phone? Pete

Tape a plastic bag on your prv warning valve and see if any water leaks out. Yes they can let by at any pressure of the spring is weak. Pete

I think you are getting confused with the boiler sealed system pressure and the hot water pressure in your cylinder as they are 2 seperate things. What expansion vessell was changed, the boiler or the cylinder? If you mean the pressure guage on the boiler is dropping to zero then this has...

Paul a Saniflo is never a good option. Do as you say and extend the existing vent pipe to service the wc in the loft, generally the AAV,s are 4". Pete

Possibly your guides are wearing out. Check the bolt/nut holding the arms together are tight and not allowing any rocking movement. Hillmore are a good make so I doubt one of the arms has been bent which happens to cheap units. Pete

Make model and poss a pic of the unit. What is the pressure and temp of the circuit. Is there flow through the loops? Pete

Have you bought a Multi meter yet, they are only £10.00 a lot cheaper than changing motorised valves. Is the room stat sending a signal to your wiring centre? Pete

I wish I got cash payments, I even get cheques for £20.00 :roll: which is a right pain having to pay in. Pete

You are correct one is a drain cock and the other is a manual air vent which you simply open to release the air and tighten by hand to close. Pete

The Feed and expansion tank relates to the heating circuit not your hot water cylinder. I think you are getting confused. Pete ps what is a PHE?

They are really awkward to connect to a floor soil pipe. The only way we get around it is to use an elbow multikwick connector which has an extendable section. Attach it to the pan outlet first and then insert the other end with the pan away from the wall then push the pan back to the wall. Pete

What regulations as to thickness of pipe were they refering to as this is new to me? Pete
