Hi, I'm putting in a length of soil pipe but unfortunately it runs where some rad feed pipes (15mm) are which means the soil pipe is tight (pushing even) on the rad pipes. Is this going to be a problem? Should I try and slide some card or something between the plastic and the pipe...

haha nice one

I assume the washing machine will be directly from the rising main or a spur. Is that any different to how it is now? Flow will be reduced with demand from taps/appliances like now but not interrupted.

I've opened up the last lockshield and whilst it's still cycling it's not as bad. I've come to the conclusion that the pump needs looking at as I can't even get the flow temp at the first rad to match what the boiler is pushing out. I think this then causes the boiler to modulate as the...

Thanks. Can't find the part number online from the pump currently installed but both boilers (two baxi 105e's) have the same pump head without a speed selector. An engineer changed one of them last year and that doesn't have a speed selector so unless they've changed it recently I don't know...

That was the puzzle that got me to attempting to balance the system to try and at least rule that out. I've now taken out the burners and giving it and the fan assembly a good clean to see if that helps. Still stumped on changing the pump speed on a Baxi 105e. No switch even though the...

The original problem was the system would cool all the way down to lukewarm before the boiler fired back up again, during this the return pipe (at the boiler) would never get above warm. The two main rads downstairs were taken off the wall and cleaned a while back and a magnaclean installed...

I've been having problems whereby the boiler heats the rads ok but after a time will shut down the heating, cool then fire back up again. The flow pipe is hot at this point but the return is nearly always cool. I thought it may be that the system needs balancing which I have tried to do but...

Have you installed any new software or hardware recently? Unplug all devices apart from keyboard, mouse and display and try booting into safe mode.

Also, in device manager what is the actual network card? What is meant by not recognising the modem? Is it a wireless modem (and router)?

Did it reinstall the devices on reboot? Reboot just means shutdown, power off, wait a minute then switch it back on. What OS are you running?

Yet another 105e problem. The boiler works ok when heating but only for a short time. From cold the boiler fires up as required, temp neons light up and pipes and rads heat up and everything is fine until the temp reaches whatever it is that causes the boiler to stop burning then temp begins...

It will be inside the laptop, they mean to uninstall then reinstall the drivers and software. Easiest way is control panel, hardware and sound then device manager view hardware. Expand network adaptors and uninstall the wi-fi device, I would also uninstall any wired device (usually the same...

Which still won't connect to the provider unless their is a modem somewhere in the mix to do the authentication.

Sorry but that bit isn't right. Modems connect, whether logically or dial up, and peform the connection side of things (PPoE) whereas a router will only route traffic in a network. Only routers with a modem can perform the handshaking otherwise a normal router will just see the provider as...

So a boiler heating 5 rads out of 8 won't use any less gas if I turn on all 8? That's the situation I have at the moment (too big a house!) and maybe why I'm getting problems with the boiler cutting out quickly.

Try changing the channel on your wireless router as multiple 2.4ghz transmitters will impact on each other.

[/url] Cheers, but I've already got part of the trim up (Genesis).

Dunno, will check the bag. The new stuff I've now got is workable a lot longer so at least I'm not fighting everything. 3 way corners...didn't see that one coming until I couldn't work out the cuts. :? Is their any tips for these? Non of the local tile shops have 3 way corner pieces...

The weber addy had on the bag the pot and fixing times, I was a bit of a mess the first time to say the least not helped by the addy going hard in my bucket by the time I'd cleaned up the tiles and wall (and floor!) This second bag has advised longer working times but still only half an hour...
