    Potterton Suprima

    On BBC Watchdog tonight they discussed problems with the PCB's in the Potterton Suprima Boilers. Does anyone know if this is still a fault with the new boilers? If so, what would be a good alternative to have installed?

    Balancing a central heating system

    I recently had a new condensing boiler fitted. The pump is now in the boiler rather than being up stairs in the airing cupboard. The problem that I now have is that the radiators up stairs are getting hot but the downstairs radiators are very slow to heat up and never seem to get to the...
