The customer mentioned the problems he’s had because of the poor pipework. So sorry guys...IT WASNT ME I connected my rad from...

    Boiler help. Baxi advanta exclusiv 35c

    Needle at 0.1bar?? Unsure how this happened . Your gauge is broke. But if your expansion isn’t charged or it has a defect, when you typically run the heating through the night, you will wake up to a gauge showing 0bar. This is due to the Pressure relief valve blowing out the. C/h water due to...

    Optima panels & replacing bell box

    I really appreciate this, because I really hate knocking back a job. It's not the money ,as there is none But he's a friend & I guess I don't like defeat. So the link wore & diodes, will they be obsolete, due to new bell box circuitry?

    Optima panels & replacing bell box

    Yes that's right. In both photos is a twisted pair of Red & Black wires, from connector block. They run out of view to the LED. Then power (Red Black ) to sounder. And Power (Red Black ) to strobe. All the important stuff is at connection block. Btw... each bell box has 2 flats connected to...

    That panel we removed stopped working as soon as we removed it. Even isolating the fuse spur, removing the 12v battery terminals, & also disconnecting the panels sounder.....The Rear House Bell Box kept on sounding. Granted....We hadn't been into the 3 remaining flats, to isolate their power...

    Optima panels & replacing bell box

    I'm replacing 2.bell boxes. The existing boxes have connector blocks with no markings. Although I realise it's not hard for you guys to identify the wires. The complications for me is there are 4 panels , 2 bell boxes out the front & 1 out the back of house. I'm just not sure about the links &...

    New vanity unit - big holes around pipes

    I agree with everything mentioned. I just made a educated guess, that the plumbing was done by a Diy guy. The way things were installed. If looked like alot of effort was made, when most of the plumbing wasn't required, sorry to say. But it will all work just the same. 5 outa 10
