Have you just woken up after Hogmanay, Dickie?

Presumably you are doing this because of scale issues? Be simpler and cheaper to hire a Kamco unit and run some descaler through. That way, you can replace the room sealed cover before anyone on here notices you have removed it and work from outside the case.

An expensive solution, and if you don't have room for a minimal sized Positive Pressure fan, then how can you accommodate 2 (significantly larger) heat recovery units?

Your signature picture might provide the slenderest of clues..........

Could be a good time to renew the boiler if it needs repositioning. Be horrible to disturb your renovations at a later date. However, if not, and you say the boiler is working well, leave well alone.

I'd put Vaillant above WB - and wouldn't write off the Potties either. But if you want the best, Intergas is the boiler to go for. But, as Muggles says, in his usual sensible fashion, your existing boiler is repairable. Explore that option first, including a fixed price repair from Vaillant...

Where the immersion is installed to the cylinder, follow its flex back. It may be simply wired direct to a plug socket - in which case all you have to do is switch the socket off - or it may lead to a timer. If in doubt, take a pic and post back here for more guided advice.

There is, but its full of windbags.....

Plus one for Aqualisa. Total quality of both product and customer support. Expensive, but worth every penny.

Always a pleasure when a) a poster reports back with a result and, b) actually thanks the good guys on here for their help. Well done that girl! PS nowtry cow - have I just learnt a new Mancunian term?

OP, if you are Dutch, why aren't you insisting on an Intergas boiler if you choose to replace?

HertsDrainage - I replied to this thread and so did you. Or am I imagining things? Did we get wiped by the mods? If so, why?

C'mon guys, respect Oilski's reasons and help him out. Agas was spot on with his hint - surely you can help a fellow rgi with some similar cryptic hints that would mean nothing to a diy-er, but would guide him to a solution?

Two abusive pulled posts today, Dickie, nice going!

Some showers have an integral strainer which can get clogged with scale etc over time - another thing to add to Stems helpful post.

Aqualisa charge a lot but give a whole lot more. Total quality. Cartridges can be sourced via E-Bay from authorised dealers at lower than over the counter prices, but make sure you get the correct cartridge - they are different for combis etc. Aqualisa recommend you turn the shower on and then...

The terms Frying pan and fire spring to mind here .....

Why not try Geoff at CET ltd. His company reconditions pcbs on an exchange basis. A short chat with him would ascertain which board you need and at a reasonable price.

You could try one of those positive air ventilation systems - its a bit like a reverse extract fan that you fit in the loft which constantly pushes air into the house. No personal experience, but users seem to speak well of them.

It would have been £84 before Brexit......
