:? Hi Just a few questions about drainage for surface water. My drive has been getting progressively worse over the years from flooding. Could be 2 inches deep at its worst over a large area. The soak away is now blocked, a power washer used to help clear it, but it's had it...

:) Hi First chance to get back and wrap this post up. Just thought I'd add what the final outcome is going to be for those that have followed other posts connected to this one - purely to help anyone else who might find themselves in a similar situation. I have included this post...

:? Hi Last week "dean7445" explained to me about how to work out what new boiler is best for the "flow rate". I have added up all the current radiators, including additional radiators as there might be a change of property layout upstairs. That is I've added all BTU's and kW's...

Thanks dean7445 - it is all making sense now. I never knew that is how combi's work and what the actual KW stood for. I will probably end up buying the Greenstar 29CDi i.e. 29kw. They don't make a 28kw. I needed some answers as it's getting cold now. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS...

StOrmer66 - thank you for your reply. About the flow - I turned the hot tap on (to see if boiler would fire up) hard/full on, and a two litre jug filled up in 10 seconds, lets say 12 seconds - I said we have rubbish pressure down here. It makes sense what you say about getting a 30kw...

brassedoff - I was thinking of a SYSTEM BOILER but I haven't priced it up yet. If I went for that (that's the sturdy looking cylinder with lots of pipes attached - right?) would the water pressure for the shower be standard, or forced from boiler pump? or would I have to install a shower...

Hi The time has come for a new boiler. I don't want to break any forum rules but are you able to say what make/models or companies to stay clear off? We are restricted because it is LPG. Below are two models that look like they'd fit what we need. I've emailed Vallant to see if...

Sorry Boilerman2 - just picked up your post, I didn't know Alpha were Italian, even so I thought they'd have to comply. But as you might read, were going to buy a new boiler. Thanks to all that helped. Stephen

FOR ANYONE WHO READS THIS; The onlinepump site were so helpful and delivered a replacement pump the next morning. Unfortunately, this pump came supplied with a suppression lead and no help with what to do with regards to boiler end cable. I phoned Grundfos today to double check as I'd...

:( Hi On Sunday I had a problem with electrics on a 'new faulty replacement combi boiler pump'. I contacted the 'Electrics UK' forum, who were helpful. There is a few outstanding questions that as Gas Safe/Corgi you hopefully might be able to help with. Since Sunday the pump...

:( Hi The request below was added to a post sent the other day that was thankfully answered, and I suspect it has been missed, so I have sent as a 'new topic' Basically, I was installing a direct replacement combi bolier circulating pump (Grundfos 15 - 50/60 130). BUT the...

:? I FORGOT TO ADD ON LAST POST SOMETHING THAT IS IMPORTANT So I've added it to this original post, to save explaining it all again. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When I went to disconnect the OLD pump I saw that the LIVE and NEUTRAL wires were connected the wrong way...

:( Hi Yesterday I had to replace a Grundfos circulating pump on a Combi Boiler. The new pump was a direct replacement unit. I switched off the 3 amp fused spur. The cable/current/load for the 240v pump as far as I can see does NOT go through the boiler PCB (the computer board)...

Thanks everyone. I have got a multimeter somewhere (finding it is a different matter), I did mean to learn how to use it but never did. It had so many numbers on it and no helpful instructions I didn't use it for what I brought it for. I think I best try "kidgreen61" suggestion, using a 3...

Hi This is an odd request - but let me explain. Alpha CB28 LPG Combination Boiler The boiler has stopped working - no hot water and no central heating. The fault finding page of manual point to two possible faults. ONE If the "B" light flashes every 5 seconds or so, and I...
