Are you really running your boiler on heavy oil?

Capacitor is under the red cover attached to the burner. Please be careful with capacitors.

I'd say the law of averages make the 4@ 2400-2600 more likely to have priced it about right.

I bought a brand new car and got a puncture. I feel the same.

Without rereading the whole thread, have you run it for a few days without the secondary pump running.

Top marks for resurrecting a near 15 year old thread. Gold star.

Yes, just use a garden hose off your outside tap.

Once the manifold is hung and isolated and the pipes laid to the design, fill using a hose off the mains water supply onto the manifold fill point. Second hose to drain. Fill each loop individually until it runs continuously and free of air.

I actually prefer the mlcp (aluminium barrier) pipe because it stays where you put it. Each to their own of course. We just use clip track and then clip the corners.

The recognised way to install ufh is to run the pipes at the required centres, connect to manifold, fill and leave pressurised before screeding over. Several different types of pipe, manifold connections will obviously need to match.

POS x 3.14 + (365×24) ÷ ~ +-21° = likely oil usage.

Email the plans off, include all measurements, what your heat source is (oil boiler, gas boiler etc), what your floor covering will be and whether you'll want wired stats or wireless. You'll get a price back within a couple of days. If you have a regular plumbers merchant they will have a...

Depends what you're after. New build or extension? Will you need a design done for multiple zones or is it just a one room kit?

Why can the gas only go back on after a service? Is it a service or a repair thats needed? I have the ticket but actively swerve them. We link a few new ones up but that's about it.

Havnt had a chance to take in all the info yet. Will read through again later. As mentioned above, do a heat loss calculation. Whole house heat loss calc was good for a guide but it's out of date now so may not be available. To go from a 20kw to a 40kw boiler suggests someone's calculations...

Loctite 55 thread sealing cord would probably be better.

What's your insulation like? That's a good starting point. Why not ask a reputable local firm to attend, balance the system, maybe do a system water check and ask for some recommendations on system improvements. You might spend a couple of hundred quid getting what you have running properly...

Nothing wrong with TRV4's. Really good valves.

Boulter were awesome boilers. Still have loads on the books. As mentioned above, wall hung are less common. Maybe ask if there is any service history.

If the layout suits, why not install a combi to do kitchen, utility, cloakroom or whatever you have and keep the cylinder as a separate zone to do bathrooms. If you really like the combi, get the pipework swapped over at a later date. Might not work on your property layout, but might provide a...
