    NPT to BSP adaptor?

    Had the same issue and bought from Aliexpress. Hope you're not in a hurry...

    Rusty bathroom radiator

    Further to above, towel rails are fab for adding inhibitor!

    Something wrong with this trap

    I've no idea, sorry, but I suspect folks will ask for appliance details.

    Central heating pump (lost the central screw)

    Council tip, maybe, but you'd better be quick!

    Grant 26e Oil Boiler goodwill please, no hot water

    The pump runs but is cold and the burner fires and boiler doesn't overheat? Hmmm... Maybe one of the valves is shut or partially shut?

    Grant 26e Oil Boiler goodwill please, no hot water

    Did you change the correct pump? Re venting, you can splash the pcb board if not careful.

    Grant 26e Oil Boiler goodwill please, no hot water

    Still sounds like pump. Is it getting power/spinning when DHW is on?

    Screwfix 'review' rejected, taps not what they seem.

    Does it matter and have you the time? I mean, you'll need an 'any old tap' to use while warring with the Screwfix legal bods, which can take light years. Good luck though! :-)

    Riello pump pressure test

    Hiya I'll PM you. ;)

    Riello pump pressure test

    Agreed, but skilled tradesfolk in remoteland are impossible to source, so I have to learn new skills - even if I don't want to!

    Riello pump pressure test

    I want to check the pressure on a Grant Vortex Riello burner, but can't find any info on residual pressure; eg if I remove the test-point Allen screw, will it spit out 8 bar of kerosene all over the utility room, or does it only work up to that pressure when running? Thank you!

    Gauge and analyser

    I'd only want it for a day. I think Jewsons hire them too, but I wondered if I needed to be in the trade.

    Gauge and analyser

    Can I hire an oil pressure gauge and gas analyser, to adjust after changing nozzle, or is this forbidden?

    Grant 26e Vortex prv

    Update. PRV shot and both expansion vessels had zero pressure. Working great guns now! :-)

    Grant 26e Vortex prv

    Re the expansion vessel, I have two, the boiler one and an external. So I'll check both. I've been quoted .8 bar for the vessel and 1 bar for the boiler. Does that sound correct? Also, do you think the blue handled valve will start leaking when disturbed? Many thanks and apols for all questions!

    Grant 26e Vortex prv

    What are these like to change, please? Looking down on it, unscrewing it looks like it'll catch on the aav (which was silly-tight when replaced by an engineer). Also, if depressurised, will removal still create a 'gusher'? (This is a bungalow, so no additional 'weight on water.) The history to...

    Grant Vortex 26e no hot water

    Hiya pump was replaced with DAB and works fine and I was just double checking which setting to use, as engineer and DAB said one and Exedon and Grant another; so going with latter, a constant curve. I don't really understand the 'curve' bit. Does it curve as the water heats and pressure rises...

    Grant Vortex 26e no hot water

    DISREGARD! Spoke to Grant today and Exedon info was spot on! Ta again.
