Yes or you could try fitting a washing machine trap to the 1.5'' pipe and then place the condensate pipe inside the up spout. Leaving a minimum air gap of 150mm. So the condensate is not touching the water seal of the trap Or you could also get 1.5'' adapter to 21.5mm condensate pipe and...

i would say you have now broken the pressure vessel with the tinkering! Even if replaced im not sure this would cure the existing fault? Get your 'gas engineer' to check the charge in the existing pressure vessel.

if you are un-sure speak to a good local engineer who MAY come and inspect the boiler and give you a second opinion. He MAY or MAY NOT reinstate the appliance? i dont know how this wwould sit with british gas though on thier insurance cover? If the engineer does not class it as AR or ID but not...

just two thoughts 1) wetwipe type towel's that get thrown down the toilet. can cause blocks and a real PITA 2) when you replaced the bath next door did you replace the waste? does this waste connect into stack down stream of the toilet? it is a possibility (seen it done by a first...

just as guess he may have cleaned the condensate trap and not refilled it? or when you flush the toilet it is pulling the water seal out the condensate trap. assuming the condensate pipe is plumbed into the stack and is air sealed via a bung or boss connection? if this isn't sealed you...

i always thought EPC was more for HIPS. which has died a death. never herd of EPC for landlords? never even been mentioned when i do cp12 nor have i seen the training pushed as a 'hand in hand' for cp12's.

This is illegal although he maybe qualified i.e passed ACS and such. He needs to be registered under his current company. did you check if the card he showed you was in date? they need to be renewed every year (usually around march/april time) also he may have been struck off or have a current...

1 st step is to isolate the supplies and open the taps to relive pressure. I don't know the exact size of the tap connector but i think the back nut is 32mm. I use a wide jaw adjustable spanner on the tap connector and on the tap back nut. you could also use adjustable wrench, or you...

zone valve wired up wrong or faulty zone valve. Is the system a s plan or y plan? It could also be a incorrectly wired boiler. Post up make and model with system lay out

got beat to it but yea what joe said :)

as a rule of thumb i use 1.5kw per rad them 3kw for water. If its a combi that will depend on flow rate for the hot water. Just remember that most if not all boilers now can be range rated ie you got a 28kw combi for the flow rate but only need 18kw for the heating the rgi can range rate the...

did you do the correct filling sequence as per the pump instructions? if so you could put Auto air vents as mentioned on the out let pipes at the highest point just before they drop back down to shower mixer? Also does the instructions say any thing about the Non return valves ie they should not...

well it is the valve which the manu think its not. Or have you thought of non return valve on the outlets as close to shower mixer as possible?

when you run the shower are you moving the temp valve all the way to hot past the safety stop. Same for the cold. See if this gives any improvement.

ok this may sound daft but if you have the shower head connected and low in the shower tray does the problem occour? if so check the shower head setting(usualy by turning the face of the head will give diferent spray patterns)

does it work if you attach the hose but not head? Try holding the hose at diff levels start with it as low a pos in the cubical or bath. Work your way higher see if this changes the flow? Also did you swap pump like for like? Could be sucking in air via the vent on the hot water dependent on how...

nope? got called out because the flame was becoming starved of air so was lifting all over the place it had melted the gas valve if you look at one pic you can see the spark switch has melted off :shock:. this was friends boiler in a council house capped it ID and told him to get the council...
