Is this something I can do myself or best left to a pro? What manufactures would you recomend?

Ha ha, I know what you mean, so what your saying is that I have a fairly good system and I really don't want to go away from it...so fitting another unvented system ie a new boiler mate would be a much better idea? I would be really dissapointed with the flow rate from the hot...is that the only...

because the hot water pressure keeps going due to the crappie boilermate being limed up, this is the one wityhout the removeable heat exchanger, would cost in the region of 1500 for just the boiler mate let alone replacing the 14 year old ideal gas burner and labour charges to boot :roll:

Hi, hope you cann help me on this subject. Have had enough with problems and running costs from our ideal boiler and boilermate 2000. At the moment the boiler is in the kitchen and the gledhill 'thing' is in our airing cupboard. I am planning to fit a combi boiler in the loft leaving the gas...

Hi mate, I have the same problem with my boilermate 2, I have replaced the blender valve even though the piston was cracked it made no apparent change to the hot water pressure. The blender valve was less than 6 mnths old so I returned it to oventrop who sent out a replacement before I even...

Thanks very much for your help that sounds like a plan! :D Is this descaling equipment I can use myself / hire / purchase or is it definatly something for a pro? Thanks again.

even though the mixer valve is literally 1 month old? The hot water is at mains pressure but randomly it will drop. say 9/10 baths are filled at mains pressure 8) bloody thing. You can guarantee when you want a shower/bath/wash up the most the pressure will disappear

Its always the hot water from any tap in the house , there is a cistern at the top covered with some plastic with a ball valve yes. It's always only the hot tap never the cold :?

After fitting a new sink we seem to get a nasty smell in the kitchen, is it because i have put the outlet for the washin machine the wrong side of the trap? Excuse the maze it seemed the only way of doing it at the time!

I used it in my kitchen and was very unempressed :oops: Would have been much less hassle to put new tiles over the original ones in the end! :oops:

Hi, bit of a long story i'll cut it short! After moving into house and having massive lack of hot water i replaced the three way mixer valve (oventrop) and have now great hot water well ish :? We keep loosing our hot water pressure and from people i have spoken to they suggest an air lock...
