Thank you everyone. I will be getting all of the above sorted before I move in. Just waiting for plumbers to get back to me, would like the work doing in September. Also wanting the pipework tidying up. Looks like a Friday afternoon job. Any G3 engineers on here who would like to quote for the...

Thanks for the quick replies guys. Sorry, more dumb questions. So, this is a water heater and tank? The glow worm boiler is just for the rads? Are they as efficient/economical as a combi boiler? Haven't seen any controls. Just a really ancient digital timer for the boiler. Would like a Nest...

Hi Everyone, Just moving into a new home. Not plumbing minded, but wondering what all this is in a cupboard on the second floor. Glow worm boiler on the bottom floor. Main bathroom and a en-suite shower room on the second floor. Kitchen to first floor. Dumb questions, do I need it all, can it...

Sorry , no one has specified anything. Just wanting an idea of what we can do and what would be best most cost effective . Personally we do not like stud partitions and would prefer brick or block walls. Just unsure if this is possible on an upper floor .

Hi Everyone Sorry for the Noob DIY question... In our new cottage dating from the 1700, "in theory" could we knock down the horrible stud partition walls and replace them with more solid block partitions. All this is for the upper floor bedroom walls, none load bearing. Thoughts are what / how...

Hi Kev Thanks for the quick reply. Had most of the kitchen out looking for a "tap" to fill the system with. :cry: Underneath the boiler there is (from left to right) a valve with a black tap, valve with "castleated" nut, two valves side by side each with black taps. There is no other pipe...

Hi All Please help - just moved into a new home. Previous owner has had a Baxi Combi 80eco installed. When we can to check when the heating was going to come on in the morning we noticed that the pressure bar is almost ZERO. I can't find any way to add water to the system all the taps...
