To be honest i would leave it to the chap that is fitting the boiler. Because 9 times out of 10 diyers put safety pipes in the wrong position which can make it difficult for making final connections. In addition there is no requirement for bending distances etc. You may notice that british gas...

Does anyone know the ratio for CO to CO2 at which a boiler is deemed to be clean? is it 0.0008 and below?

I would guarantee that by removing the ball valve, drying everything off and applying a generous application of silicone to the washer and between the washer and the bottom of the ball valve will sort the leak.

You could always put some insulation tape around the nut and then try removing it with grips or spanner etc. This will prevent pulling metal off or rounding the nut off.

Best way is multiply all room dimensions Heightx Widthx Lenght divided by 20 gives you it in kilowatts X 3412 = btus. That is approx.

The actuall head that the water terminates from is it scaled up?

Is the headset bocked?

Why do you want to study electronics? Are you wanting to work primarily on combis?

If you still have the manufacturers instructions for the shower i suggest you go though the fault diagnosis at the back of the book. If you do not you can retrieve a copy for free on mirashowers.com. Is there a poor flow of water?

You will probably need a 88mm adaptor. But there are a range of cast sizes around three i think. But 88mm is most common. it may only come as an extension piece which you will then need to put a standard pan connector into. Some branches of plumb center sell multikwik but any good plumbers...

The microbore appeared to have been shoved up the 10mm plastic. quote] That means it isn't into a fitting me old fruit bat and If it were you wouldn't be able to pull a plastic coat over it would you? As they are so bulbous. But the test of time will tell us everything! :lol:

Mira excell. cant beat them. macerators are good for the purpose intended and you can pick some up quite reasonable now. I would either buy a macerator or a pot belly pig, or post dinner scraps through student halls letter box on a friday night they eat most things. .

Glowworm are usually cheap i would say between 35 and 45 pounds but don't quote me on it. Truthfully to work on boilers you should be corgi registered but to be honest to change the air pressure switch means removing a couple of screws and a couple of hoses. Ask no questions tell no lies if you...

Sounds like a condensing combi to me. If there is low water pressure a combi should have never been fitted. And the idea of putting a bathroom in addition to what you already have is preposterous. The hot water tap would have such a low output you may as well spit on your hands to rinse them.

This could be the air pressure switch on the blink. The switch has to detect the fan running to initiate the ignition sequence.

Is the fan running in the morning and the boiler not trying to ignite? or is it trying to ignite but struggling?

Hi tracy. how old is the boiler?

Sounds a bit ropey to me! It certainly isn't a practice that a proffesional adopts and to be honest if what you are saying is true i wonder how it ever sealed? If in doubt rip it out.

Found out a fantastic tip last week some of you may all ready know it but for those of you that don't, you will think it is amazing (as did I!) Circulation problems as you all know can be caused by blockages, in particular blocked cold feeds. However, how can you tell where a blockage is or...

Removing the toilet. Isolate water supply and drain and remove cistern. Remove any screws from the pan and try to wiggle the pan out of the pan connector. I strongly doubt this will be glued. If the pan was cemented in i suggest breaking the pan with a hammer and removing it in small sections.
