my money on a deadleg too, very common problem, the old cylinder cupboard the place to start, if installer argues I belive it is in the regs somewhere about not leaving dead legs in, but dont take that as 100 percent, been a while since i had a good read! :D

probably best if you get someone in to look at it for you rather than attempt it yourself, it is always going to be hard for anyone to say if you have enough space without seeing the job, it is not just about if you have enough space on work top but what is below the work top and how it is all...

I thought it was this year, October time, but I might be very very wrong! :?

I think in general it is a good idea and would be better if more installations get inspected, the good thing in your situation is, you get the defects put right and the installer gets a little wake up call to do things correctly. I had an inspection on one of my jobs like this just over 3...

I had same problem with a customers boiler, never failed infront of me until my last visit! I am putting a new aps in tomorrow, it completely failed in the end. Shame about your installation problems, good luck with that

Steady your an utter jerk off!

looks like total rubbish to me, flexi pan connectors are for DIY, it should be hard piped, with the amount of pan connectors on the market I cannot see the need for flexi pan connectors, they are up there with flexi tap connectors to me, how hard is it to cut a length of 4 inch pipe!

sorry duplicated my reply! dooo

it will only help your on flow rates, not on pressure, it will only pressure up to water ever your mains pressure is or the pressure set on the combination valve, however if you have the pressure but limited flow rate it will help in a big way, very easy to instal, just cut a tee in after your...

yes your flow rates are utter sheet, you would be best with a cylinder!

I must be drunk tonight, meant to post this in the combustion chamber! :D

not really, get your self some nice chrome LSV's, seeing that your going to cover it with towels to dry them it kinda renders the TRV a bit useless :D

seen this kind off instal before on at least 2 occasions, on both occasssions i argued with the installer who was gas safe registered about it All I got is it doesn't say you carn't do it in the manafactures instructions, which is an utter sheet excuse to get out off paying for a vertical...

something is leaking and it may be your wife!!!

Ditto!! seriously just replace it, if you mess with it is your insurance going to cover you once they find out you have tried to fix it?

they are designed for easily disconnecting the appliance for cleaning purposes, now the problem comes when the self sealing bayonet fails to seal! not a problem until you disconnect it! I would expect a full tightness test to be performed to check the integrity off the new appliance and pipe...

the point is the appliance you will be connecting is new and has never been tested, for all you know the gas pipe might not be in the right place and certain tests have to be carried out before an appliance can be considered safe to use, you would possibly not even know how to correctly connect...

I agree with the above, they both have different gas requirements, if you want to know about the boiler it's self you can get the manual from vokera's website. This is not a job for DIY!!! YOu will need an RGI

Would have to comply with current legislation, which means you would have to have a condensing boiler fitted as this work has to be notified.
