    Classic schoolkid ignorance..

    Jeez Joe, don't label them all!! Unfortunately, youths believe they have rights on everything, which in a lot of cases they do. This is due to all of the 'Child Protection' laws that are in force. We can't smack our kids, we can't berate them in public, basically there is no control. And...

    Wrong Lane

    The other old favourite is when there is a queue of traffic at a roundabout wanting to go straight on, but no one in the right turning lane. So drivers will go along the right hand lane, and go all the way around said roundabout in order to go straight on. Fair play, and perfectly legal I think...

    Ice is not nice

    Not a nice thing to have to find. Mind you, earlier I ran into a car, roads still a bit slippery, not much damage though thankfully, just a ding along the back do......... where did you say this happened? :lol: :lol: :lol:

    some warm rads, mostly cold!

    Does seem like a slow turning, or seized pump.

    One For The Oil Boys......

    Sorry for the delay guys. I called Danfoss yesterday with the pump model number of the suntec pump (AS67B , 7449-4) and asked if they still supplied the equivalent Danfoss one, BFP11r8. This is a commercial grade, up to 80ltr/hr, which is what the Suntec one rates at. They no longer make that...

    salamander pump pulsing

    Try looking at the filters if you can. They may be partially blocked. Also see if the thermostatic property of the shower is working by turning it to hot only. If the water is hot enough the water should run down to nothing. If it keeps flowing, then the valve may be faulty.

    One For The Oil Boys......

    Right, at work I've got a Ecoflam P35 Maior burner that runs with a Suntec pump, which has failed on the solenoid. I've taken the coil off, and the pump still passes oil, so the pin/ spring has jammed open. put a new pump on, ran ok for a couple of fire ups, then does the same thing. Had...

    Help. Switched Heating on and pressures gone to 4 Bar

    Could also be the filling loop, if you've got it still attached, passing.

    salamander pump pulsing

    Was your shower a new install as well ? Or was the pump an after thought? May be the thermo control. What make/model of shower is it?

    Boiler Move - Certificate Required?

    If you wish for peace of mind, if its an oil fired boiler, call OFTEC, they will inform you. But you won't need notification if it is, but you will need a suitably qualified person to do this. For a gas fired boiler, I think it's the same issue, as long as the heating engineer is GasSafe...

    Only a wedding

    It's taking up too much airtime because the three channels you've mentioned all run 24 hours, so churn out the same stuff all day. It's quite good in one way to be able to flick the news on whenever, but if you watch it for more than 15 minutes you will get a sense of deja vu......

    Vote for Wagner and Mary.

    If the producers and judges just picked the best singers in the various boot camps and elimination rounds, people wouldn't vote as much as they do now, and it would also be a bit boring. The likes of Wagner are kept in, firstly by the rebels who want to turn the show into a farce by voting for...

    Only a wedding

    Quite funny really. I drive past the bride-to-be's mums house every day on my way to work and back, and the papps just take snaps of everyone that either goes into or out of the drive. The other day, on my way home, this car was pulling out, and the cameras went nutty, taking loads of pics, and...

    Trianco Eurostar combi 90 oil boiler thermostat B tripping

    A new pump may be required. You can coax it along by removing the chrome screw ( dependent on model ) and turning the impeller with a screwdriver, if it is seized then get your wallet out :)

    Boiler Move - Certificate Required?

    Think you have to notify, even if it is the same boiler, in the same area..

    Why will no one say how much they pay for LPG?

    I'm afraid your 'Diynot' card is marked now John, I'd give up and go somewhere else to get your info, because you've just about cut your ties on here :evil: :evil:

    Hot water tank thermostat

    Turn it up Mike. It will have thermal cut off, so turn it to just below maximum and see :)

    Universal Expansion tank replacement

    If you notice by the responses you have got, there is a reluctance to assist you on this matter. It's not a closing of ranks, it's probably more an indication to call in an expert to do the work, they will be able to see what they need to replace, etc. :)
