    Potterton puma 80 H/W keeps going hot and cold

    Hi all, Have you had the appliance serviced regularly? If not, there could be a number of faults associated with your boiler. DHW flow regulator, DHW diaphram, DHW flow sensor, water pressure and gas valve. You need a competent Gas Engineer to look at it, is there a washing machine below...

    Gas appliances that actually need servicing.

    Hi all, You are correct nicknox! Most of householders don't bother unless there is a fault. The educated people do get their gas appliances serviced on a yearly basis for peace of mind and safety of their family :D As for not true, try looking through your Manufacturer's Instructions...

    10 or 15mm?

    Hi all, Cider are you an installer or Diyer? If the former, get back on your corse or refresher training :wink: If the later, you can do that if you want to reduce the effectiveness of the heating system, but, you will get problems :roll: If you haven't heard of manifolds, I guess...

    10 or 15mm?

    Hi all, You can't turn 15mm pipe into 10mm, bad idea, as statedby audisport 10mm has to be run off a manifold, which mean you have to reconfigure the whole pipework. If you aren't proficient in this, and the cost implication you should use minimum of 15mm pipework to the new radiators...

    New Boiler Quote.

    Hi all, Firstly, I am not one to criticise most folk, but, your installer is recommending a 29Kw boiler to feed 4 radiators! Do people not do a FULL survey on the correct sizing of boilers in houses :shock: If you get a 29Kw boiler installed in a four radiator house/flat you will be...

    HOW DO I FIT A WIRELESS THERMOSTAT TO A WORCESTER 24I BOILER

    OK, Firstly, if you aren't sure about the wires, go to page seven on the honeywell website for the cm927, that shows where the wires need to go. But, if you aren't use to wiring these up you need a sparky or a gas engineer at the very least. The main L + N + E needs to be wired with the...

    Vaillant boiler - pressure problem

    Hi, under the boiler there may be a silver braided hose with either one or two taps on it. You need to turn the tap to replenish the boiler/system presure to 1.0 bar cold pressure. Just turn it till u hear a rush of water and look at the pressure dial.....

    ideal boilers isar m30100

    Hi, I agree with nickso, the problems u have lead to explosive ignition and whole heap of problems. I can assume that the boiler hasn't been serviced recently or indeed correctly :? Get a local suitably qualified engineer to do it, before u have to spend alot of money my friend :lol:

    British Gas, rads and overflow issue (one for the experts!)

    I think ur problem is the 4bar pump, the overflow pipe obviously dumping excess water due to the extreme pressure that the 4bar pump is shovong through your house. Can't understand why it is connected via your cold feed coming into house (assuming what you have said) so all cold feed draw-offs...

    Gas hob and oven need two bayonet sockets

    Hmm, Just a figure of speech doitall on clf-gas part, industry standard is preferred if using fixed pipework, although we do bow down to MI's. But, lately, most insist on rigid pipework. Unless a mickey-mouse hob from Ubekistan or somewhere :lol:

    No Hot Water, overflowing overflow!!!

    Firstly, I bet the plumber used the p/r valve 2 dump some excess water out of the system while u weren't looking! Bad move as sometime grit or oxidised sludge might of seat on the washer that seals the valve, therefore the continuous dripping or flow means the valve hasn't shut properly....U...
