to the OP, it may be cheaper and quicker to nip to Primark and buy yourself a jumper? Repeated firing/cooling ('cycling') of the system is detrimental to boiler component life and your fuel bill. DH

Deffo the Aquarian, by Aqualisa. So, out of sheer nosiness, is there an issue with this shower valve? DH

Normal for Danfoss it has seemed over the years..... Dh

New actuator head required, around £60 to buy, 5 wires inc Earth to connect. Have to do loads of these. (If it helps, I have Danfoss at home , and change the head every four years or so) DH

Whichever GasSafe registered installer is used to put it in and commission it will have taken all relevant standards/Building Regulations/Manufacturers Installation instructions into consideration before starting, and should record the completed installation with the Local Authority (through...

Suggest that you STOP STOP STOP right there, the big red thing is an expansion vessel for the water in your heating/boiler circuit only, NOT the hot-water that comes out of your taps. Can you post a picture of the cylinder itself and the pipework that emanates form it?, and we'll take it from...

[/url] Now, with a 100m aerial tower, that would make a most excellent 'radio ship', i.e. VERY difficult for the SBS to sabotage (think MV Communicator c1985....) Patrick

With that amount of travel (plus latex gloves to counter the, ahem, BioHazards present) a dudley duo flush syphon, pull down kit, donut washer, hacksaw/fein blades/scuffed knuckles etc) As said, £120 plus VAT, or, the punters can continue to bucket'n'chucket DH

Flushing a 'one piper' ?, best of british.... They rely on differential temps on the rads to work, but what would I know, I only come across one every five years or so... DH

An hour?, to do it properly?, it is two separate appliances after all... smoke pellets/matches. moving the sideboard to check the wall/window vent is not clingfilmed, warming of flue etc etc. 90 mins minimum. £65 plus VAT minimum... (not fancy Lunnon prices round here). DH

A flow switch on a Suprima? Really ? Not listed on the MI's that I just looked at to check to reassure myself (never seen one on a suprima yet...) As per Forum Rules, (which I agree with) no Gas Safety Critcial advice will be given here by any Registered Gas Installer. As said get a...

as 2008 has said, your RGI will be able to supply the correct hose, and the correct jointing compounds/methods, check for correct ventilation in the room, ensure an adequate supply of Gas is able to be burnt correctly by the cooker and any other appliances, fix the cooker to the wall, level it...

my money is on Caterham to storm through qualifying, get 1st&2nd on the day (assuming they can find a driver for POS car #2), and we'll see British Racing Green on the podium. Don't know which national anthem will then be played, as it how has around 50,000 owners... DH (if it p!55es...

The allegations I heard today are truly sickening... I reckon it takes some serious courage to go public after years of trauma caused by this. FWIW I am not interested in 'names', as perpetrators are just that. DH

I'll fetch my Crystal Ball and fathom out just which sort of heating system/boiler/controls you have and get right back to you.

+2 DO NOT GET A SALUS.

Hand tight?, really? Not my experience, esp with the cheap imported pottery (more common than you might think/wish - even high street salesrooms -storebath? etc) where the condition of the moulding can be very questionable. The kit I use is called 'basin-mate', very effective, but requires...

Just to throw my tuppence worth in, an alternative 'Heat-only' with a five year warranty would be a Viessmann Compact (26kw). These have a Stainless Steel heat exchanger, completley different style of Radial type burner. No pump-overrrun required. This would be my first choice, but have...

to the OP, the easiest place to find them is 'goggle'. But in case you have not heard of this, try here. http://www.unitetheunion.org/uploaded/documents/JIB%20PMES%20Rates%20&%20Allowances%202014-201511-13200.pdf It gives the plumbing JIB rates. Hope this helps.

Does your kitchen have a door or window that opens direct to outside air?, what size is it (volume wise)? any other older (open flue) gas burning appliances in the room? Funny, when asked over the phone for a quote and I ask these basic Gas Installer questions, the usual reply is "no one else...
