Hi thanks for both your replies how do I work out my kwh output we have 7 rads 6 are single panel 1 is double panel ( lounge) boiler is ideal mexico super 3 RS3/40 if s plan is most simple I assume quicker job less labour to pay and less to go wrong the two main reasons for wanting to do...

Hi our current set up is an ideal mexico super 3 boiler, pumped central heating gravity hot water room stat only. As this does not give us any control over our hot water I would like to convert our current set up to either s plan or y plan is there any advantage to one set up or the other for...

is that in an electric shower? that does not look too healthy lol many thanks for your time and help saves me £20 as 60 amp choc is about £3 a strip

what reason do you replace them, same as me missing screws?

yeah need the 4 cover screws but dont mind paying £2.50 for them direct from triton as unlikely to be able to get from elsewhere so can you confirm replacing the original terminal block with a piece of 60 amp chock block is safe and legal?

does chock block not come with the screws the problem being the oe chock block is quite large with large terminal screws and want to make sure the replacement chock block is correct ampage is 60 amps sufficiant

just a thought could I buy a strip of chock block and replace the current terminal block rather than paying for oe fitment at £24 plus postage its a 8.5kw shower so works out at 36.1 amps so would need 60amp chock block as 45 amp does not seem to be available any thoughts

Hi HH1 yeah its the right manual and yes it is wired incorrectly as its on the same circuit as the oven and hob although not done by me only come to light since a problem with shower it seems that it is a none servicable part but I guess before I even contemplate replacing the shower it needs...

just a thought as this shower does not have a solenoid valve and pressing the button just opens the valve so water will flow from the shower head with or without power is it likely to be a circuit fault I suspect not as the other 2 items on the same fuse still work

Hi whitespirit66 the shower worked flawelessly for the last three years but I realise now it is broke it is better to have the wiring checked and if need be upgraded before replacing the shower its self

cheers london boy I thought that was the case not being an electrician I will have to wait till I can afford to upgrade the wiring before i replace the shower

thanks seco been looking at mira as a possible replacement but think im gonna have to get an electrician in as im sure the wiring is dodgy as hell from previous owner, its on the same fuse as electric oven and hob and runs from a grey wire, in the switch in the cupboard I can see a black wire...

Thanks for your reply HH1 I think with it being a cheap shower Im going to have to bite the bullet as there are no servicable parts just a complete new engine or a new shower

I switched the above shower on this morning and it will not warm up freezing cold water not good for showering brrrrrrrr :( its not the fuse as believe it or not its not on a dedicated fuse and the other things on the same fuse still work any ideas

Although not a plumber the most likely suspect is your pressure relief valve or your fill loop could be letting by or not correctly turned of whats the pressure reading on the dial ideal should be 1-1.5 bar

many thanks for all your help i cant believe something so simple was the cause I was worried I would have to shell out for a new washer I will give it a good clean and post back if it does not resolve the issue thanks once again
