Thanks, I'll take a look and get one. I have an infrared thermometer for taking pipe/rad temps but not one for water temps.

ha!! ok fair enough! :lol:

Can anyone please recommend me a good thermometer for taking water temp readings, ie from a hot tap??

Thanks for helping. I've got it now, wanted to confirm and make sure :) In my booklet, page 2 is introduction and not anything to do with wiring?? My booklet is different to the link you've given me for some reason!! Just called a user manual and ha sinstall instructions inside it...

Hi D Hailsham, thanks for helping. the CH on wire (from the programmer to the old stat) is connected to the COM terminal at the new prog room stat At the programmer in the kitchen, i have removed the CH on wire from it's terminal and put it also in the Live terminal (giving it a perm...

can anyone help me here please: am installing a new prog room stat, it is a SUNVIC TLX6501. it is replacing a standard room stat that had packed up, and seemed good value at £35 :) So I have wired the CH on terminal at the programmer backplate to the perm live connection there. The...

either really, would be interesting to know how....? anyone experienced this before?

That's OK, glad to have helped. Does the other showerhead fit OK? No leak from it?? Washer ok in the hose??

what flow rate is the water from the shower? can you remove the showerhead from the hose and check it to see if any faster this way?? it may have a faulty control stabilizer valve or even a partially blocked filter....

once the system is full it won't take long for the gauge to rise to 1-1.5 bar.

really? how?......

Can a shower pump cause pumping over into a cold water cistern?? Anyone experienced this before.....

OP - yes a blocked vent pipe would cause an explosion if the stat failed. Also a blocked vent pipe and cold feed pipe (ie due to freezing in the loft and being uninsulated) - can lead to CYLINDER IMPLOSION (when a tap isopened the pressure in the cylinder falls to BELOW ATSMOHPERIC...

true but may support it a bit better if a fault occurs and give the occupier more time to deal with the problem and get it sorted.

Make sure your feed & expansion cistern is fully supported correctly across its whole base and more.

do you have a mixer tap on your kitchen sink?? shower pump will not cause pumping over...... why did you suggest that?? what height roughly does the vent pipe over the large cold water tank rise to above the water level in the tank, BEFORE it bends over and into the tank?? btw when...

You may do if the nut is very old and stiff when loosening. Should be OK though. Have an old cloth/towel ready when loosening.

is every hot water tap affected?

X200 FROM SENTINEL: is boiler noise reducer. It is if limescale has accumulated on the heat exchanger (which is the hottest part of the system and where it accumulates). This will happen if fresh water has been added to your system regularly, over the years, and especially if you live in a...

With a new low water content condensing boiler, the pump speed is usually always set to speed setting 3 (the highest setting), due to the fact that the boiler requires a fast flow rate through its heat exchanger, to prevent the water overheating/boiler going to lockout, and thus boiler noises.
