Is it the actual boiler thats whistling or he system it's self? Do you have TRV's fitted on your radiators? If so one could be faulty and causing the sound to resinate back thro the system. Next time the heating whistles try turning one of the trv heads an see if the noise stops. alternate on...

bloody hell, Do they do em in advocar? I've got an old dear pesterin me for a new toilet an i aint' got the heart to tell her she'll end up with a white bog and rank green suite :?

A system boiler by defination is sealed and should come with all the necessary safety devices fitted as standard. I never had any dealings with grant boiler so do not know the full workings of them. But i would of thought unless you've had the system upgrade, not the boiler to sealed ( by this i...

Fair Point shambolic, We do all have our own preferences on the best boiler and the ones that will hopefully give us the least problems in its lifetime, but you have to agree the last half decent boiler ideal knocked out was the classic, an i ain talking the HE either. An as regards the istor...

Depending on what type of boiler was fitted and what system, but primarly yes. modern boiler would of kicked out on numerous thing tho before over heat due to lack of water, you've got flow switches, dry fire thermistor, pressure sensors. Why?

stab in the dark here, but am reckoning you've currently got wot we used to call an s-trapped toilet pan an low level cistern? They don't make em no more and retro fit close coupled can be a nightmare. You either have to as you say stud the wall off to support the cistern or if your very...

Er, where do you start. The pumps fitted the wrong side of the feed an expansion so dragging air in, The feed and expansion are too close together, You've got mirco leaks on the system, (air gets in, water don't get out) Could be alsorts, best bet. Get a professional in :)

Nice one, he's just got back to me actually said somet about "oh we'll just amaizse? em over" is this ok?

ok, so you've two options then. Plastic pipe and flexible waste. the plastic has to have enough play to be able to drop back down once you lower the bath. id mark out round the edge of the bath on the tiles lift the bath back up and then get some of that super strength no nails place a bead all...

you can pick an rf stat up for about 70 quid, it would be the easiest to install but then you have the trouble of going round turning valves off/on each an every time you go out. then you come home and house is cold cause heating didn't come on cause valves are shut etc etc. In my opoion the...

Hiya, I've just had me bedroom ceilleng over boarded and skimmed and three great big cracks have appeared across length an width of room any ideas. my plasterer is unavailable :(

Any takers? i'll do all your plumbing for a year :D

Don't know if you've solved your problem or not but hepworth make a elbow which connects directly to the trap and bath waste

By free standing plastic bath, do you mean it is suppled with an plastic shroud that hides all connections? how are you going to make the connections once the bath is in situ if this the case? or is it a slipper type bath where you can see all lion type feet etc?

Doin this would not cause your boiler to cycle in fact it would do the opposite. But to do this you would have you establsh if your system is fully pumped or not. It would be a lot easier to convert a exisisting y-plan to a s-plan plus than altering all the gravity sercs etc. Then again there is...

Firstly i'll get it out the way, A plumber is a sparks with his brains bashed out and thats why am struggling.. :wink: Here goes, fitted new heating system at home and can't for the life of me figure the damn wiring diagrams.. :evil: Got a vaillant boiler, vaillant unvented solar...
