Interesting thread. I was a cowboy plumber for a while (no insurance or qualifications and all that) and mixed and matched plastic and copper sometimes though on the whole I preferred the copper as I was led to believe I would have less leaks and as a cowboy leaks are the...

simond wrote I shall start with this one below from the other thread if thats OK. If the mains static pressure is 1.5 bar and the pre-charge inside the accumulator is 1.5 bar then how does the accumulator become charged with energy so that it may be released when a tap is...

GAH,s rep also explained to me that they always look at options when a mains flowrate is low and do give the advice that renewing the mains pipe may be a better option.

Well Ive just had the pleasure of chatting to one of GAH,s sales directors and he was very helpful I might add and a true gentleman. (not like some) The controlled action diaphragm is patented in America and nothing to do with GAH or Steve Elsey. Steve Elsey does have...

Blasphemous wrote I . What about that program on the other night about the amount of gas the UK has to import now from volitile foreign countries. It said the UK had decades of of natural gas supplies but was all exported off to other countries. Surely this was a lack...

I didnt know the answer to your original question and if I did I would have posted it, so I just popped what came to mind and brought your 2 day old post back to the top of the forum for all to see , you ungrateful pratt.

Chris R. I have given up with the prospect of simond throwing any light on this so I have taken the liberty of contacting the managing director GAH by e-mail. He passed the e-mail on to one of his sales directors and has contacted me today. He wants to talk to me...

Thanks for the offer Doitall but its OK. Plumbing to me is just a hobby. Have had lots of offers for work recently but turned them down as I am not qualified. Done some pipefitting though. :D I was winding you up earlier when I quoted your installtion as being "wrong". It looks...

at the Keaton link Should be Keston. and no heat would ever reach the system .

I have just been looking at the Keaton link you provided Doitall. On page 4 a hydraulic layout is shown which shows a pump fitted between the the header and the boiler which Keston calls a "shunt pump". Surely this is the "primary" pump. If that shunt pump (as Keston call...

Doitall wrote Awesome. :D I have took the liberty of pasting this earlier reply by your goodself. Are these pumps just stealing water from the big pump and returning some of the flow water back to the return ?. Would fitting shunt pumps not be the case with the...

Well I think the OP deserves some attention after all that malarky. So here goes. geez wrote Whats the current set up . (ie cylinders or combi boilers) In other words what supplies your two power showers at the moment. ? Have you measured your current flowrate and are you...

Doitall. Will those books show me the answers to the questions I popped at you earlier ?.

pannierstan wrote Your just showing off now. Why didnt you post this 2 days ago. Rob probably has his answer from another forum anyway. Look ROB28 Ive got the answer you were looking for. Hope you get your boiler operating successfully. :D

Agile wrote Hey,relax. This is the best entertainment Ive had in a long time. Its sad I know. :(

Simond wrote. Thats right, their is nothing stopping other installers from installing accumulators to boost pressure on unvented systems or otherwise. Just how would this forum stop installers from using accumulator technology.

Simond wrote. The point I was making is that accumulators are fitted to unvented systems without any permission from MrElsey ,GAH or certain patent rights. Are you saying I need copyright just to copy information from the patent website and paste it on here for...

Wht dont you answer the question for the original poster and shut up blabbing. The post was already 2 days old and dead in the water when I brought it to life.

This load of nonsense is written on the GAH website. How can you take this nonsense seriously simond. That lorry driver I mentioned has his accumulator connected up to his unvented cylinder. Whats GAH , Mr Elsey or the patent office going to do. Sue him.?

Simond wrote Sorry I dont have the figures for that but it looked quite big. Their aint nothing to defend m8. That I can believe . :wink: Any product can be modified and an individual can then manufacture that modified product. The patent then dont mean jack shi@t...
