Well I certainly wouldn't recommend using Denso tape in that situation.

Well you could just wrap the spigot with hessian tape impregnated with boss white and ram the whole lot into the gap. Not something I would recommend but it's something you could do yourself without having to get the owners 'tradesmen' involved.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Some of those old systems had no control over DHW and you could get a situation where, if no hot water had been drawn off for a while, there was a risk of scalding.

You find on some old oil systems that the primary circuit often includes a towel rail or radiator typically in a bathroom. Sometimes this circuit is extended to provide radiators in remote parts of the house and a second pump is added. If it was done by someone who knew what they were doing then...

Have you tried rodding it?

Or you could just grind off the boss with a rotary file back to the soil pipe and bond on a replacement.

If your FP720 has an industry standard backplate and your sparky wired it correctly then you could swap it for a Drayton LP722. I have a LP722 controlling pumped heating and gravity hot water. It replaced a mechanical controller that had an industry standard back plate meaning it was a matter...

Never had a post treated with engine oil fail. I mix it 50/50 with kerosine and paint it onto the lower half of new posts.

You can feed a power washer from an outside water butt or a portable plastic container.

You need to go into Disc management and give it a letter.

It has an amazing 40 year certification period from the safety standards people.

Well if there is a problem with the digital controller then most likely it lies with the valve assembly as thats the bit that takes most punishment.

The boost button shouldn't be stuck in on a new rotary control. I would get it replaced if I was you. You dont want to be running your shower on constant boost.

So yes the cost of getting a tree surgeon in can be pretty high. Goodness knows how you magic up those sort of fees if you are living on a minimum income. I guess many people who might be considered as unreasonable and inconsiderate neighbours just dont have that sort money.

You could talk to the neighbour and suggest a hight reduction to the tree and if they dont want to foot the bill (which can be prohibitively expensive for many) then maybe offer to pay for it yourself as that might be cheapest option in the long run.

Well you could check/replace the photo cell I guess in the first instance but it could be lots of things. If the start cycle fails the boiler should lock out. Not happening here and if memory serves me I saw that exact scenario a few years back with the boiler start cycle endlessly repeating and...

Hiring out FGAs - I bet they get quite a few back requiring expensive repair and re-calibration.

Ive tried several of these mould cleaners without success. What I now do is scrub neat bleach onto the grouting using an old toothbrush. I leave it for 24 hours before rinsing off. I find that works very well.
