Can I ask where in the country you are?

How long ago was this? And did you have a nest or similar fitted?

I asked an intergas accredited installer to quote. He said the intergas heat only unit was rather big for a kitchen cupboard fit and quoted for the Baxi. Apparently intergas are very good for Combis.

I've been getting quotes for a replacement boiler to replace our aging Potterton Suprima which is now kettling badly and occasionally locking out despite a new PCB 9 months ago (before we owner the house). Current setup is a heat only boiler, unvented HW and open vented central heating. I've...

House is beat part of £350000. Don't understand the second part of your question, sorry.

The principal behind this is fine. But if there is a fault or replacement needed, it's a lot more than just £150 needed.

Debatable. I didn't know of their family circumstances when I viewed the house!!! However, I was their only offer but that doesn't mean i'm going to push the sale/ purchase through just because I feel sorry for them!

Lucky you're not the vendor then.

Hi all I'm in the process of buying a house, and got the Homebuyers Survey through yesterday, Having read it all through I am fairly happy with the results, but there are a few points I wanted to query with you. 1)- a sulphurous smell in the loft. I suspect this is a faulty AAV as there is no...

A focus is 6ft wide according to Wikipedia, so to get about 13 ft would be fine I guess?

At the bottom of my garden, I have a hard standing parking area which is currently the width of one and a 1/4 average cars. It is shielded from the road (a small, quiet cul de sac) by the most overengineered gates I have ever seen, which sag, lock from the inside and look horrendous. As a...

Correct. It would just keep it all nice and straight and flush against the beam, although as you rightly say it would actually be getting pushed upwards by the load anyway.

Something like this: (my additions in red)

I was thinking this also. I would also suggest that you would need to put screws towards towards the vertical face of the beam, just before the bracket bends at 90 degrees to the ceiling, as otherwise the bracket would suffer from droop- and there is nothing worse! Some bracing pieces may also...

Yes because I caught it early it stopped the problem getting too bad. Early reactions save lots of money!

It developed a whistle when on CH a couple of years ago. Limescale in the HE. The noise reducer kept it quiet then, so its going back in now!

In case I need to wash my hands!
