There is as much arguing over what plastic to use as to which boiler you buy. When fitting plastic make sure you have AT THE VERY LEAST 1 metre worth of copper on your flow and return going into the boiler. Also consider where your condensate pipe is going to run. If it's in your bathroom...

Yeah it should be around 15 inches deep.

Don't fit an Ideal boiler. And don't touch ANYTHING gas. Leave it to him. You can fit core drill the hole for the flue and let the RGI connect it. He shouldn't charge much to do it. I would also check you can get a guy to come in and commission it for you, a lot of guys understandably...

The Gas side of it isn't the only bit you legally need an RGI for, flue too. Other than that, feel free to do the rest of it yourself, no reason why not if you have the confidence. It might take you 3 times longer than any of us but you'll save the cash, which seems to be your sole aim...

Just to clarify, you don't need to changed the whole radiator to add a TRV.

Turn one side of all of your radiators off, see if it gets warm. If it does, it's a balancing issue. Try it and get back to us. Worth a try before spending money. May well be the valve though.

Or he can get it free from the link above. You wont last long

Haha, amazing.

What does your pump sound like? try turning it up to three.

You mean its the reason you're not over-charging people. You have your prices, we have ours. Shut your ****ing mouth.

Make sure when you're emptying the radiators to open the bleed at the top left/right to allow air in, makes it much easier. :lol: Once it's empty, close the bleed, flip the rad upside down to stop dirty water dribbels on your floor.

£30-40 on the Wirral

£180 is a lot of money for an 80 PCB You'll wanna hope it hasn't blown something on it now! You wont get your money back. Could be anything really, Fan, Pump. What's happening when you run a tap... does the Fan start? Can you hear clicking as if it's trying to ignite?

If the same has happened again, It's likely a faulty component is causing the PCB to blow, the same faulty component is now giving you problems.

Have a proper look and make sure the leak isnt coming out of the stop tap itself.

Don't worry if you're not Gas registered. You don't need to be for changing a PCB :idea: :lol:

That's awesome! Well impressed!

When you say its not firing up.... Are you getting anything at the boiler at all?

He done both though!? :roll:

Buy some decorator caps from plumbers merchants. Unscrew top part of TRV Fit cap. Isolate radiator at other end Drain radiator. (make sure bleed is open during this. Remove radiator Check pressure. If low (shouldn't be) repressurize boiler and keep an eye on...
