    What to look for in a good quality TRV?

    Thanks all for the very helpful advice. I had a good look at the Drayton and this one from Toolstation (which was half the price at £8.62): http://www.toolstation.com/index.html?code=48000 What swayed me in the end was that the one from Toolstation came with a 5 year guarantee & the...

    What to look for in a good quality TRV?

    I will shortly be getting some thermostatic valves fitted ot my radiators (bar the hallway where the thermostat will be) and am very confused with the many TRVs that are on the market. I need to buy 10 & they seem to range from £5 - £20 in price but I am finding it hard to see why the big...

    Central heating not working on Potterton (hot water is ok)

    Hi, the plumber came yesterday & fit the new part. So now the central heating problem should be fixed. My only problem now is that the thermostat is in the kitchen, which is the hottest room in the house so the heating does go off quite quickly and stay off for awhile until the kitchen has...

    Central heating not working on Potterton (hot water is ok)

    Just thought I would post a little update on this. The (Corgi in NW London) plumber has bought a part for £87, which is £10 cheaper than keeptheheaton. He is charging £100 for labour. Does that sound about right? Also last night the central heating started to work again & it came on this...

    Central heating not working on Potterton (hot water is ok)

    Thanks fred48 :). I did already see that website. If the plumber can't find the spare part locally then I will order it from keetheheaton & get him to fit it.

    Central heating not working on Potterton (hot water is ok)

    The plumber has just been. He said the diverter valve needs replacing. He is going to see if he can find somewhere that sells a replacement part but said as it is an old model then he may not be able to find anywhere that sells it in which case I would need a new boiler. Are spare parts...

    Central heating not working on Potterton (hot water is ok)

    Thanks for the replies. It is difficult to see if it is the timer or the thermostat which is causing a problem as my hot water is constant. The clock is still going round but the heating didn't come on this morning so I presume the timer is working. I have a plumber coming this afternoon to...

    Central heating not working on Potterton (hot water is ok)

    I have a Potterton Combi 80 boiler. This evening the central heating won't come on (it was working fine this afternoon). The hot water works fine. The flame light comes on when I open the hot tap & hot water comes out. When I try to use the central heating, the flame light won't come on...

    Indesit program stuck & dial knob turns on it's own!

    Sorry for the long delay in replying! I attempted another cycle the day after posting this but there was a power cut! When the power resumed, the washing machine completed it's cycle. I have used the washing machine many times since It's working fine for me on all the programs I have tried.

    Indesit program stuck & dial knob turns on it's own!

    I have a 5 year old Indesit washing machine. Sorry I can't remember the model number but I think it was one of the cheapest ones available. I will check when I get home if it's really helpful for an answer. I am having problems in the past 2 washes, where when I select a wash, it fills up...
