The black valve on the left is upside down - not an issue! - but simply turn both the black valves so the lever is in line with the hose. When your pressure gauge reads about 1.5 bar, turn the black valves back to how they were. Your pressure doesn't look far off now - are you sure it needs...

I am not sure why the OP is unscrewing the filling loop - it looks securely attached, just leave it that way and operate the two attached valves until the pressure is about 1.5 bar. Then close both valves. Unless I have read things wrongly - apologies if I have.

You may as well add inhibitor when the Magnaclean is fitted as it is then so easy to do. Having both will be better than just one (or none!)

That would probably be pushing the envelope for Bernard, Tony. Perhaps just leave the casing off and see if he spot that without a Google.

So, you didn't get error code S30?

He's just a lonely old man, Dicky, who hasn't got a life.

Not wishing to spend your money for you, but you might take the opportunity to remove the last section of metal (that joint looks a real botch) and go plastic down to ground level. Good luck, buddy!

OP, it wouldn't harm your cause to lift those pavers and (carefully) reveal the clay pipe as far as the next joint. If there is damage, your plumber pal would be able to effect a repair far more cheaply than if he had to do the digging.

Why?

According to Which magazine, maybe. Otherwise, a big no.

Can't see any reason not to Tee off the boiler cold water supply. Good luck.!

Just to save the righteous from being tarred with the wrong brush, Eternal, please note that the poster of that particularly unpleasant comment is not an engineer or rgi. He is someone with a chip on his shoulder who has, apparently, done an illegal self install of a gas boiler.

Brilliant.

Vents, yes, but what type? Can't see confirm in BG man's scrawl - but concede you actually came up with a word, which is more than I could..... Oh, and I think I see no T/ guard.

Your allocated sum seems realistic, but as no-one on here can actually visualize the planned installation, it might be better to go down the route of getting a few quotes locally, then deciding. More hassle, I agree, but ultimately more useful to you. Sorry if this sounds unhelpful.

The first comment refers to the position of your flue in relation to a soil pipe/window. Still working on the rest. Think the BG man was a doctor in a past life.....

Most rgi's would walk away from this kind of proposition. Allow them to supply boiler etc ( after discussion with you ) would be the best way. Otherwise, you are sending out all the wrong kind of signals.

Just when you thought the thread couldn't get any lower - Jedi is out on parole again...

Thats funny, no one's mentioned Rolson......

Very clear and concise. Thank you. Now for the unhelpful bit. I appreciate you are only asking this advice so you can order the correct parts for your chosen RGI to eventually fit. But - because that advice would be gas related, no one on here would be allowed to give that advice, no matter how...
