    earthing gas supply

    you cant bond externally, 17th ask for 10mm as above, you can bond on entry to the building but add a note on the circuit design or minor works cert that you issue to the were abouts of the clamp for testing etc.

    Worcester will not turn on no power (lights etc not working)

    twin coil cylinder in parallel

    there used to be different heats calcs for radiators with bottom opposite entry and top/bottom entry. a lot of councils ask for top/bottom opposite entry for elderly for ease of control and also added output. :) can be noisier though ./ :( never figured out why though .

    Baxi 105e Hot water pressure problem??!

    i have come across a few 105 with exchanges scaled up but i dont think its that in your case. if all the taps are ok and its just the shower , maybe the model of the shower would help us ?? i have had this problem with the older miras and a new cartridge has fixed it.

    3 neutrals together in a light

    towel rail circuit

    the trv`s are classed as zoning. fit an auto bypass it will work better than a manual 1. i would also use a programmer and zone valve and incorporate a room stat somewhere to satisfy the boiler interlock need. god knows were though . :) this would stop the pump cycling on satisfaction...

    Fitting TRVs to microbore with twin pipes at one end.

    never seen any!! that do a 2 point entry. remove the rad valves and the bung on the other side and fit as per instructions. it will mean extending the 8mm to the other side. easy to do using compression fittings.

    twin coil cylinder in parallel

    different boroughs have different thought on which way to go .. sheffield go flow to the top.... mansfield go flow to the bottom.. general thought is flow to the top ... but i see sense in both ways to be honest. but i go flow top as i was taught that way. :)

    How hard is it to fit your own flu liner?

    fairly easy for gas ... solid fuel is a little harder, a full scaffold up here costs 300 including up to the stack. also fit a fire box at the base, it makes it a better job and so much easier... add 70+ for the box. liner prices vary week by week
