Your kidding? :)

Installed dozens of Baxi's and not had a problem with the flues melting, definately call someone mate, and don't use it until it's looked at and rectified. Al

Hateful things- the ex wife or FL gas fires? Or both on the same par :lol:

But did the labourer? :lol:

Totally agree, I wouldn't even reccommend a FL gas fie to my ex wife :lol: Then again :twisted: Only kidding, only kidding folks :lol: I personally hate the thought of fumes being spewed into a confined area, even with the reccommended air vents etc. Al

dia Quick question, do all makes of TRV rattle? AL

Well, don't think the OP will be back, he got a tad ****ed off with the bickering and left even more confused. Such a simple problem with a simple solution which was ignored due to ppl trying to be to clever :lol:

It's bad enough supporting 2 fat workaholics- Moi and the missus. God, I only hope she doesn't read this :lol: :lol: :lol: To be honest, I don't even know the going rate for and employed RGI, If someone could enlighten me, I may need to employ someone soon :) Al

I was thinking the boiler buddy, looks neater :)

Now with fear of getting dragged into the squabling, I have come across this problem loads of times, it has always been that the TRV is installed in the incorrect direction. Ensuring the flow was traveling the correct direction sorted the problem everytime. We even had a few systems of...

So ppl, whats best, Magnaclean or a Boiler Buddy? I have a couple of systems where I need to install one, just curious which is better? Al

Haven't come across a power flue for quite a few years, do they still sound like a Harrier J/jet engine? Even so it's a better option than a FL gas fire. Al

Had a 600x2000 K2 radiator slip off it's bracket as i was looking down behind it to see if it was hanging correctly (found out it wasn't). I've got a high pain threshold but this almost made me 'hurl' with pain, considering the bottom seam of this munter landed on my big toe and all that was...

I do plumbing, heating and gas maintenance for 4 accommodation agencies, totalling 880 properties, most have gas, but not all. So been pretty busy, had my worst year of sickness in my entire live too so struggling to keep up. Most of the guys I speak to down here are pretty busy too.

Sounds like a good idea to retrain as a solicitor :lol:

Damn, I thought you'd say that, I want to change the board before I do anything with the boiler anyway. They have a good landlord, doesn't mind paying for work to be done. Interesting to know about the LK1 link trick, didn't notice if it had been played about with and had been snipped. Al

Cheers Tony Replacing the board Monday for the correct one, not into bodges myself. Then I've just got to sort out the rest of the problems with the property, mainly not modulating, but hoping the correct board will sort that. Go there to do a landlords safety cert and recieve a nice list...

Hi folks, just a quick question... The above named boiler has a Potterton Puma P/Pilot modulating board installed, the Combi 80 is electronic ignition, now here's my qyuestion- should the Combi 80 still work correctly? Cheers all Al

Tony, I just thought it was odd to get 3 different answers from a boiler manufacturers technical department, who in theory should know the ins and outs of their boilers. I appreciate it's not the easiest to determine a fault over the phone hence why I was stood in front of the boiler 'testing...

Cheers, I tested it and left it running on '6' for a good couple of hours Friday and it was running ok, the tenant knows not to wack it upto '9'. Just seems odd getting 3 different diagnoses from Vaillant tech.
