Hi, I have recently moved into a new house that is fitted with a 15 year old Vokera Linea Max LPG combi boiler. 1st Issue Original problem was the hot water when run went cold relatively quickly for a boiler that size that contains around 58litres inside the boiler ready to go. I ran the hot...

Hi, searching the forums and noticed you installed a nest to a Vokera linea 24. Am about to install it to a Linea max. Reading your post from earlier this year and you said connect the the TA junctions to 2 and 3 on the nest heat link. Is that both TA terminals to 2 and 3 or one TA to 2 and...

Where I am planning on putting the vent is only 4m from the septic tank, is it still worth fitting an Air Admittance Valve on this short distance? If it is then I will take your advice and fit one. Also the septic tank is an old concrete one covered with 3 heavy concrete slabs that have...

Hi, Long story short the bathroom in holiday home on the Western Isles of Scotland has no vent pipe after an extension was built. Depending on which way the wind blows the smell from the septic tank is not pleasant to say the least. The extension was built on the back wall of house which had...

Quick update. Original plumber came round this morning, I pointed out the wrongly connected boiler drain pipe he has now fixed it so its runs in to the main waste pipe. Pointed out the joists and now a joiner is coming out next week to brace these, no doubt a quick bit of wood screwed in...

The floor joists are 5 x2.5 inches. The notches are 2 inches deep and are less than a meter from the wall. Is this too big a cut?

Narrow long kitchen with units one side and boiler on the other.

Boiler directly opposite sink only kitchen is only room with concrete floor.

Thanks everyone for you replies although its making me even more annoyed that I let this happen in my home. In reply to gasservice1985 the boiler is in the kitchen which is an extension with a solid floor so piped through the wall so can then go under dining room floor and the bathroom is...

Installer works for local company. I have been in touch with them with my problems and they said they will speak to him about when they can and get back to me. Fingers crossed its an easy solution.

Checked the boiler installation instructions and as you can imagine does not recommend anything like what I have ended up with.

Not paid them yet thankfully. Am no plumbing expert but I could see that it wasn't the best job. So a condensate pump would get the drain water flowing but it will still just dump in my front garden. Isn't almost 16 meters of drain pipe way to excessive.

Had a new condenser boiler and radiators fitted last week. Due to location of the boiler the drain pipe gave them a small problem which they said they quickly worked out a solution. We live in a ground floor flat and they told me that it would be connected to the main waste from the...
