system boiler. hw and heating, 8 rads

what do you mean kev? when he told me the loom was knacked because it had become brittle i just assumed that the wires had snapped. Are you saying that if the insulation breaks away a little at the end connections then the boiler wont work?

thanks again kev. got the correct si, but surprise surprise it's no use to me. I'll print a copy and ask the guy to come back out and hopefully he can find a part that is fixable. I have only checked the continuity of the wires, i didnt bother with resistivity so hopefully i'm not barking...

ok i'll wind my neck back in, im no plumber but i know my way around a circuit board. I just want some idea of what might have gone wrong. I have a set of service instructions but they mention lights on the pcb, which this one doesnt have, so i'm going to have to assume that the service...

right, this is where i am at present. kev mentioned getting the loom replaced so i have taken the front off the boiler to see how easy it is to get to the loom. I thought seeing as though there is a wiring diagram on the inside of the boiler i would get my multi meter out and see if i can...

maybe i should give a bit more info re my house. its a 3 bed semi with one bathroom. the boiler that is being replaced is 18kw i think.

cheers kev, i'll give them a call tomorrow and arrange to get the old loom to them. not bad for a monkey hanger :wink:

i'm asking because i dont really want to bother calling someone out to get a quote knowing that i am only checking this guys price. dont want to waste anyones time. the reason i am sticking with this guy is because he is refunding me the price of the part that went on the old broken boiler...

boiler is a myson apollo 40 si. the fan was knackered, it took some freeing up and worked but made a racket. plumber replaced the fan, boiler worked and was much quieter. next morning wouldnt come on again. i have no beef with the guy, so some people are trying to make more of this that...

hi, i was hoping someone could quickly check a price for me. im having my boiler replaced and want to know if he charging me the going rate. got another quote i hear you say, well long story short the guy is refunding me the cost of a part that got fitted on my old boiler, the old boiler...

I'm only asking some questions, no where does it state that i expect him to do anything. fyi the guy is refunding the cost of the fan, i just wanted other peoples opinion on it. not quite sure why you would need to know anything more about my boiler, it's not my boiler i'm asking about.

Hi, Had a problem with my boiler which was diagnosed as a faulty fan. Plumber replaced fan and for about 3 hours all was well. Then boiler wouldnt fire up. Plumber came back the next day and spent quite some time trying to diagnose the problem. Using the boiler fault finder sheet in the...

My question is as per the topic. Woke up this morning feeling a bit hotter than usual, fnar fnar. felt the radiator and the central heating was blasting, went down stairs to check the stat and it was down at 10oC as usual. turned it up to check it was working and got the familiar 'click'...

something like this??? http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Main_Index/Showers_Index/Pumped_Showers/

ok thanks, how about a pumped elec shower feeding from the cold water cistern???

ok, thanks for that, i will bare it in mind. so far i've got to, keep my existing CH system, have an additional 2 small radiators in the loft, raise F&E and cold water cistern into peak of loft conversion (taking care to lag and make adequate room for access) Pumped electric shower running...

thanks for that, really helpful

taps and rads would be 1.6 down from cws. hot water cylinder would be 2.8 down from taps and rads.

thanks again for the advice powell. so in your opinion i should be ok putting radiators up there. my central heating system is pumped, it sort of makes sense now. my expansion and cold water supply tanks will be moved into the apex of the lofts roof, they will be 1.6m higher than the...

thanks for the quick reply powell, yes my system is pumped, are you saying as long as the feeder and expansion tanks are above the rads and new ensuite then i will be ok? i assumed the hot water cylinder would also have to be above the rads and ensuite???? the reason for not wanting a...
