faulty gas valve possibly, check to see if there 230v on the L&N of the gas valve when not calling for heat. if no voltage and the boiler is still operating then the valve is faulty. if there is voltage then the problem is else ware.

Hi all thanks for the info to date. Have recovered installation instructions of the net. They only note I have looked all around the shower and in the sleeping area. Isolation is as stated above in my first post. I Have at this time not excluded the possibility of it being under a first...

Not an easy one... two issues Gas Safe signing of work not done by that person. They say don't. however the person signing off the work will be held responsible for any deficiencies. If they are signing it off then they can notify BC. Trying to do the work yourself and then getting BC to sign it...

Hi Bernard, thanks. The wet room is open to the sleeping quarters [there is no door between] The space was converted to sleeping and toilet / wash facilities. the CU is in the sleeping area in the original position when the property was first built. Distance wise its about a 1.5mtr from...

Good morning. A couple of questions if I may of the qualified electricians. I attended a call to a customer who was having a problem with water running from an electric shower. 10.5kw job, the problem is a defective solenoid valve on the unit. No problems there except the unit is a wet room...

Ring Gas safe and ask them. As to a "better or need" to have, with the legislation in place even if, as you will find that NCS is a designation that you as a householder 'might' ignore, as a Landlord do you think it is wise to have less than spot on as this would be noted on a landlords...

If it’s producing more energy [and more importantly] effort to keep it going and remove ash etc..... I presume the sawdust is a by-product? And you have lots of it, can store it to keep it dry..... Is it better than the existing waste wood burners? If so.... by this time next year you’ll be a...

If this is so, it's doubtful that air is trapped after the pump, assuming the valves are on the pump hose connections. No a check valve in the location you describe is not allowed by regulation, it would not function as vent pipe. a check valve on the hot supply to the shower only would be...

A blocked cold feed could show a normal water level in the F&E and the pump could still be free to turn but may still not be moving water. is the flow from the boiler very hot? as it shuts down the burner. the likeliest problem is circulation from the description of symptom's

No they need to be gas safe registered and cert for cooking appliances to work on same. proceed with caution with what you have been told.

Yes it help to understand the conditions available for the performance of your future system. Again yes, this will define the conditions available. To test a pipework and then change the bore etc. will affect available parameters. your on site installer is best placed to advise on this...

I note the safety alert states that the kit can be supplied free of charge, how helpful. Do they also pay you for fitting them, I wonder?

As commented above you seem to be focusing on the co level being AR however you also have another fault the corroded flue which is ID So the action would be acceptable [to isolate and label the appliance for non use] As further pointed out above, perhaps you should be saying thanks for the...

Most makers of such trays will normally require full supporting base. On a wood floor, a base of good quality 18mm ply with a very weak cement mix to bed the try on. If the ply base is raised then the bearers will need a close spacing to support he ply base. on a solid floor then the ply...

If the manhole is a joint service connection point, I,e, it serves more than one property then it is likely the responsibility of the local water undertaker. They may not initially do anything as they don't like to spend money but if there is repeated sewerage spilling then it could be argued...

I believe such work should be notified to building control and will require testing.

I believe its an 1/8 the depth [generally] however there are permitted zones along the joist. if you try a google search for depth of joist notching you will find many illustrations that will help to clarify the permitted notching. Basically its 19mm in a six inch joist so they are being a bit...

You should refer to your NHBC type contract if one came with the sale details. I would have thought it would. However don't be surprised if they start by claiming its a user inflicted issue, so you may need to get a independent in to camera the system to id any construction issue if that is...

Barclays and RBS paid 523 staff more than £1m a year That's approx. £2700+ per day That's the salary of the banker the bank are paying over heads to pay even that salary, Not saying we are as cleaver as the bankers tho, we only get our hands dirty they just wreak havoc with the economy. so...

Then why don't you offer to source your own component's and work out what's needed and take responsibility for any faulty equipment that may arise. That way we could all just work for wages. :roll: Sorry but if you don't like the price for the work quoted find some one who will do it...
