Yes it does.

I will have to fix it sooner rather than later, so I am thinking sooner. It is very unsightly even though it can be covered by the bin.

I had Vinyl flooring fitted in my kitchen in 2015. A few days ago I cooked myself a baked potato in the microwave (as I have done many times before!). However, after ten minutes (2 x 5 minutes) + 2 minutes cooling; the potato was black! Therefore I put the potato in the bin and microwaved...

I bought a house in 2014 with a camera beside the front door. I have never looked into how this works (up to now). Next to my TV in the living room; I see this the panel shown in the first photo. Note there are three ports that are not used i.e. SAT (I have a satellite but don't use it; FM...

@sparkymarka, there is an X on the keypad. Therefore I will try: 1, then 4, then 7, then X tomorrow (to avoid the risk of disturbing my neighbours at night). Why would two people be needed? I assume this is because there is a time limit between shutting off the power and entering the 1,4,7,X...

@sparkymarka, With regards to step 4 of: 'Resetting to factory defaults'; I assume that 'No' means number and is a superfluous word? i.e. there is no action required for this word? i.e. all that is required for step 4 is to enter: 1 then 4 then 7 and that is it? I just want to be clear. I...

@sparkymarka, thanks! Is this the documentation: http://www.autoguardalarms.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/gardtec-eurosec-CP8L-LCD-engineer-man.pdf. The reason I ask is because the doc says CPL8L (note the L on the end).

@sparkymarka, please see a photo attached. I thought I would add it in case the exact model number can be identified from it. could you confirm what you mean by a PCB swop? I have not tried any code yet. The battery has recently gone flat and the alarm is a bit temperamental at the moment...

I bought a house in 2014 and the previous owner did not know the code so I have never used it. However, my research is telling me that I should be able to reset the code. I am trying to find some documentation explaining how to do this (hopefully some user documentation exists). The following...

Thanks. Do you know how much it is likely to cost (approximately) to fix the boiler expansion vessel? Do I need to flush the system? Thanks again.

The original plumber is finally available this week and is visiting on Friday. I bled a few of my radiators at the weekend. Since I did this the pressure seems to increase to 2.7 when the heating is on and then falls back to normal levels once the pressure is switched off - one one occasion it...

Thanks. Is this the diverter valve for my boiler: https://www.akgas.co.uk/potterton-diverter-valves/potterton-powermax-he-3-way-valve-assembly-5106931-detail

I posted this question in September: https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/diverter-valve.509393/ The answerer talked about diverter valves and cartridges. I have a few questions: 1) What the difference is between a diverter valve and a cartridge? 2) Why could the cartridge fail independently of...

Are you able to point me to a webpage, which advertises the parts I may need i.e. 1) Diverter valve and 2) Cartidge Why do you think it is just the cartridge that needs replacing? Thanks again for answering. I have a potterton Powermax HE 85 CP.

May I ask what it depends on? As previously stated I have a Potterton Powermax HE and it was installed 2002-2003. The reason I ask is because I am trying to decide if I should take issue with the plumber who installed a new diverter valve 2.7 years ago. Thanks for your responses.

Thanks. How much would I expect to pay for a cartridge? The plumber visited and quoted £310 (excluding vat). How long would you expect the valve to last?

It is a Potterton Powermax HE boiler. Would you expect the diverter valve to last more than 2.7 years? Thanks.

It is a Potterton Powermax HE boiler. Would you expect the diverter valve to last more than 2.7 years? Thanks.

I have a Potterton combi boiler and about three years ago I noticed that the central heating was activated when the water only was activated i.e. the radiators would heat up. About 2.7 years ago the diverter valve was replaced in my Potterton Boiler by a local plumbing company (see linked...
