hard to say unless your at the job. go to the fuse box and look for CH or anything close top that, if you have a mulitmeter check it. remember a neon can glow but it doesnt mean 240v is there. A pump needs that power to work. Take the tope of the pump off and smell it... if it stinks your pump...

that is a very good price! alot cheaper than i would charge. Your friend of a friend give a price that sounds like a bit to cheap. The reason he might do it so cheap is maybe he bought a bargin off ebay or its a off the back lorrie boiler. I see people doing heating systems fully fitted for...

i charge £55-00 first appliance and £35-00 per add. So if you have a boiler and fire its £90-00 if you have a boiler cooker fire and another fire its £160 I love servicing conventional boilers i dont who told you that but its fine. Its only a flue test, vis inspection, stable flue runs...

could be hard to find. I would install a new system if i was you and get rid of the suprima we repair them all the time there useless and expensive to repair. get a baxi 105 on a new system. you cant go wrong! the pipes under the floor proberly are not protected. run them on skirting boards and...

nope your not reading me right. Its a common fault on a baxi boiler i thought you might know that. although the heating runs it can cause a washer on the h/w to vibrate. When the hot tap is opened the washer stops vibrating which stops the whistle. I have repaired many of these and baxi had...

sorry about shocking spelling i am a little tired... :P :P :P :P :P

ahhhhhhhh! i was waiting for this problem to start again, i thought baxi sorted it as the baxi 105 boilers we fit are now not doing that The noise is not lime scale or anything! it is infact a small black washer. under your boiler you have chrome fittings. locate the h/w one and the...

masona i would put my life on it its asbestos. why not take a small sample. call a chemist out, look under asbestos in the yellow pages for an analyst. ask him to come and do a sample. if its asbestos it wont cost that much to remove. it its not then your fine to tear it down.

oh i misunderstood you

your radiator problem could be sludge. Your boiler however can be many things... i cant seem to re-call that model number but on standard combi boilers like vokera 80sp and others, its always the micro switch or diapram. I have even found the arm to be stiff. But as for your boiler i cant...

sorry when i mean blow and mean BANG! they 80% of time trip. i can understand how you though blow and suck were related LOL

the potteron kingfisher was first realesed around 8 years ago and my company were issued a kingfisher to install as a test boiler to replace the thorn. Unless your talking about the balanced flue then in that case your right. The rs came out about 8 years back and i have been fitting them for 8...

the amount of calls i get explaining they have just had a flush out by a company and there system is banging is unreal. I hate flush outs they create more airlocks than enough. I aint a plumber but i am a gas fitter. Removee the BOILER stat, its a long copper coloured pole that goes in the...

Well i havent seen the job yet but i will be there on monday so i will give it a go. I get my corgi book through the post each month and nothing has told me about ripping out a gravity system and replacing with fully pumped on basic boiler changes. sorry but that sounds like stretching a...

I dont see how the wiring can be an issue. It will already be wired back to the boiler. I really think you should try the stat thats ALL it can be i have worled on these for years

It sounds like air. try pulling stat and wait for a splatter in the head tank. The pipes will get hot so watch it. The pump overrun would sometimes cause it but unlike the apollo it sounds like a basic air lock. Also the pump is supposed to run after the boiler shuts off but are you 100% sure...

thats crazy. it should have been swicthed off long ago. flames should never be that condition and never even come close to escaping from a boiler. If its under poss pressure fumes WILL be escaping its just a question of how much damage has been donw. You cant smell CO2 but you will still get a...

they cant be asbestos sheets, they will be superlux. asbestos is now illegal. Superlux looks the same but its safe!

this was just a replacement boiler. I dont think customers will folk out an extra £900 to convert to fully pumped. I will swap the pump over and put it on the flow. To be honest i always fit pumps on the return on kingfishers and profiles and never get any problems, however i dodnt fit this...

exellent, glad to hear it
