It must be irritating for people posting for advice on here, seeking the advice of time served experts, to receive the constant intrusion of Bernard who has no qualifications here whatever. Bernard, I mean no insult - you were presumably highly skilled in your trade and are probably the...

Our Hetas boys should be able to help on this a bit later, but as a quick response - and I'm not Hetas - shouldn't insulating material (eg vermiculite) have been dropped down the chimney flue, thus insulating (and stabilising) your liner? What a horrible, long, sentence! Sorry about that, hope...

I am not sure the OP is allowed to remove enough parts to enable a useful picture to be taken? He is being commendably careful here - we don't want to encourage unauthorized gas work. Forgive me if I am wrong here - Tony will quickly advise.

Razor, is there a link to this on the Intergas site, or do you just have to phone in? I take it the annual service would be an additional charge? My apologies, as I know you have explained all this to me before. But I forget things......

Think Motorbiking means a half width one. As in this example - http://ao.com/product/dfs04r10s-beko-slimline-dishwasher-silver-36659-24.aspx?usemvc=1& Small dishwashers do exist but they can be expensive and unreliable.

I must be misreading something here, I can't quite visualize a sink on top of a work surface. My bad? Bear in mind, the dishwasher will be sharing the water supply and drainage with the sink. All you can aim to do is run all services as close to the wall as possible, leaving you maximum...

These sound like the pre-gassed self install units that Dicky was talking about recently. He might be on later - he's fitted a few - so might share his knowledge if we ask him nicely.

The words Honey and Well spring to mind.

I can't believe there isn't a better way to route those 2 pipes that go right across your fire opening. Not exactly a pretty site.

I think the deafening silence answers that question, Herts!

Gives me a headache just to look at it, Dilalio! You must be one patient man to do all that.

As a generalisation, the economics of replacing a very reliable but inefficient back boiler with a potentially less reliable combi aren't good. But - as you are getting it done for free, it would be rude not to. I don't think you have to worry too much about the boiler. But take note of what...

I have had excellent results from the Adey Magnaclean - but again, Dan has much experience in this area and will hopefully add to this thread with further recommendations.

I believe Dan has a very poor opinion of the Fernox mag cleaner - the above saga would tend to show why. Well done alwaysworried for reporting back - glad you got the issue sorted!

I think the op needs to provide a picture in order to obtain more useful help here. Both of existing pipework and the fittings.

Actually Sir Richard, I preferred the short version! Just doing a gentle bit of leg pulling.

Don't beat around the bush, Sir Richard - say what you mean.....

Please, before you commit to Salus - consider alternatives. They may be pricier, but there is generally a sound reason for that. Could save you from a world of pain......

Does the cistern flow fully stop, or keep dribbling? If the former, you just need to adjust the height of the cut off. If the latter, you should be able to get replacement diaphram kit. Isolate the water, undo the knurled nut, and inspect the diaphram to confirm. Not an expensive or difficult...

Picture might help here.....
