    Too worried to go bed....

    Not being funny but if the OP can't sleep at night then that warrants paying a pro to come out and do whatever is required to fix the problem. Ridiculous

    Parts and labour costs

    It does seem our industry is depressingly targeted. Not helped by big company plc offering service contracts and because they are big companies consumers think they must be good. It's all over-promise and under-delivery. Further, lead gathering parasites do not help. I mainly repair/maintain...

    HRM Wallstar air problem

    What fittings are on the oil line? Compression or flared? If the tank is not to far try running a temporary oil line right up to boiler using flared fittings. I've done this sometimes to prove that air ingress is somewhere in the oil supply. If you "flick" the NRV are you seeing bubbles? If...

    Virginia Media or Sky?

    I've been a Sky customer for many years and have seen my subscription fee creeping up to its current level of around £60. Bloke in the pub is telling me that I can get better value with Virgin and I can still get Sky Sports? I'm confused!

    Is there a secret code or handshake...

    This is one of the few industries where installers spend their free time sometimes up to 2 hours including travelling in the evening to a complete time-waster who is looking to pay peanuts. Yes there are exceptions but I can detect them from 600 paces. I will only quote for existing customers...

    Replacement Electric Mower

    My Flymo Turbo Compact 350 has finally died on me. Motor had burnt out. It has served me well since about 1997 I think and it has been used and abused for all these years. Not sure what to get but I do like the Flymo and do not want petrol. Can anyone recommend a something similar. I...

    Grant 26e Vortex Combi Oil Boiler

    The boiler was installed 4 months ago. If all paperwork was completed then it will be covered under the Warranty. If not get the Installer back. Easy question to answer that wasn't. It's a far better solution than trying to help someone from behind a keyboard whose time would be far...

    Grant 26e Vortex Combi Oil Boiler

    Sgree BM. In terms of exp vessel sizing the MI's spin it out to British Standards....your Installer will hopefully have accounted for the system volume?

    Grant 26e Vortex Combi Oil Boiler

    If its not an install problem (leak) then the exp vessel will be covered under warranty providing boiler commissioned and reg card sent to manafacturer. According to Grant most failures for recently installed boilers are down to installation errors. Did you get a CD10/11 form from your...

    Nozzle change on HRM Wallstar 12 14

    Agree with Tipper sounds like air in the line and he has given good advice on clearing the line (a good couple of litres should do it). I would not expect there to be a Tigerloop or equivalent as HRM do not advocate installation of these on the Wallstar. TBH given the nature of the OP's question...

    Nozzle change on HRM Wallstar 12 14

    As previous poster said get a pro in (but not necessarily from the OFTEC website!) Failing that you are in Norfolk so you could ask HRM to send one of their boys to help?
