Another question for you Dave Will it be ok to use Sentinel x400 or similar to clean out the system with it being around 12 years old.? Also should i wait until the magnaclean is fitted and then introduce the cleaner into the system. I dont want all the loose crap going into the boiler do i...

P.s have you had any experience with the Fernox TF1.? I wondered how good they are.?

Thanks Dave I got a price for the magnaclean pro £79+vat and the twintech was 89+vat, the prices are from Grahams. I did'nt thinks these were bad prices. Im going to order the twintech on Monday i think, as we need some kinf of crap filter in there somewhere. Cheers for the advice. Dale.

Thanks for the quick reply Dave. I decided to change a couple of the trv's today. As i can't afford to get someone in to do the work at the moment. Basically the system is full of s***e. I flushed the radiators i took off with hose pipe outside. Full of black crap and small pieces of debris...

Hello all I have been trying to find a supplier on the interbet who sells the Spirovent magnaboost, but have'nt had any luck as yet. Does anyone know where i can get one of these filters from. Im going to try my local greenbros tomorrow and some other plumbing suppliers. Been put off the magna...

Thanks Charles Yes i'm still interested, but it will just have to wait at the minute. Im only working part time now (Not through choice), so i can't afford to get the work the done. Thanks again Dale.

Hello mate I live in South Elmsall near Pontefract. its about 15mins from M62/A1 junction., south bound. That would be great if you could do that. Nice 1 Dale

Thanks D.H for the advice. Yes had a quick look on ebay and saw the 927 one. Regarding getting someone in to fit it, i think i might.? I am competent when it comes to basice house electrics. How hard are they fit.? But if you are fitting them on regular basis, you will find it easy. What...

There is a myson microtimer digital time clock located the side of the boiler and the only temperature control we have is built into the boiler. Thanks D Hailsham i apperciate the advice. If only you lived in West Yorkshire.

Thanks Dave, Kevplumb, Tony and D hailsham for all the good advice. You have saved me a fortune :wink: What would be a good thermostat/time controller to have installed with my boiler. Would a wireless one be compatable.? Thanks in advance.

Thanks Dave Did you note the boiler model number.? Is it roughly ten years old.? Could a wireless thermostat be installed to this boiler. Thanks

I have just found the instructuion book for the boiler, the model number is VCW-GB 242 EH. Does this ring any bells, and is it rroughly ten years old.? I forgot to add in my previous post there is no room thermostat. There is just a Myson digital time clock near the boiler. Could a wireless...

Thanks everyone. We do have cavity wall insulation, had it done last year. Although we haven't noticed much difference. The loft also has 200mm insulation. Rads have trv's but not all of them work.im in the process of getting them replaced. We also have double glazing. Installed a year ago...

I certainly would expect a proper warranty. Forgive me for jumping the gun a little. I did not realize that it would include a powerflush. Thanks.

I was wanting to change because i was under the impression that new condensing combi's were more efficient./??? The gasses coming ou the flue are red hot. Obviously wasting energy. But at around £1000 for a days labour, it looks like the old one is possibly staying where it is. :shock...

Thanks Thats the thing i dont really know which manufacturer to go with. There is always someone who has something negative to say about any of the boiler manufacturers. What would you recommend then Dave.?

Thanks Agile Is that price including the boiler.?
