    Swapped door and window in current openings

    Means of escape is now better than before as it was previously compromised by the original kitchen layout. Think the "complaint" was by the inspector who has been next door for building works and thought he would generate some income for the council. For me I thought the spirit of the directive...

    Swapped door and window in current openings

    Ok thanks seems like very much sit it out, worst case will need to change the glazing in the door. Think this has all come about by neighbour having work done and inspector seeing the "building work" that I have done. Understand if lintels were involved but they were all in place. The U rating...

    Fit Hive 2 to my Vaillant ecoTEC plus 837 - please help!

    I would have gone for the Vaillant VRC470 or 470f' assuming radiators are sized correctly. OK not contollable via a web app but you could then benefit from weather compensation. Obviously if you can achieve savings by controlling via phone due to your lifestyle then you may have made the right...

    Vaillant ecotec plus 418. Many problems.

    Just get them back they have messed up the wiring. However putting that boiler on a potentially dirty system may be the cause of other issues. S30 is fine means no call for heat from either the roomstat or cylinder stat.

    Vaillant ecotec plus 418. Many problems.

    s.8 is anti cycle mode. The boiler has reached and exceeded the target flow temp. Quite likely after the first long burn when it has modulated down but not reached the target on the cylinder stat. Boiler will then fire at 80% approx of its rated max 18kw regardless of d.0 due to heat in pipes...

    Vaillant ecotec plus 418. Many problems.

    Is you pump on 3? What S codes are displayed when playing up? Are the valves on the pump fully opened? By afterun time I guess you are talking about pump overrun 20 is the default for the anticycle timer. Setting the water temp tap sign has no bearing on your install. Set D.0 to 8 do you get a...
