Hi, I've got a baxi 105e which is causing me some issues. It started with the DHW going cold and then hot again then cold again. I cleaned out the DHW HE to no avail so bought a new one and fitted that to no avail. The hot/cold thing only happened intermittently. Recently the 60 degree light is...

We have an Electrolux electric double oven, Model EOD983X2 / 944171091 . Just recently we noticed that hot air was coming out from around the main oven door. After checking the door seal and finding it to have deteriorated somewhat I bought an authentic replacement from Electrolux. After looking...

HI, I have an uninsulated garage door...ie bare metal. Do you think it would be possible to use the foam stuff they use for filling in around holes in brickwork to give it a coating which would provide insulation? Regards Al

Hi, I've got what I think are very old telephone wires supplying the service to my house. The is a thick cable with numerous wires in it but only two are used (they do not seem to be twisted pairs). One is solid white and the other is solid orange. Other not connected wires are 3 yellow, 1 black...

Hi, I had some issues with my BAxi 105e in July which required a new PCB to be fitted. I have a tower rx/tx wi-fi thermostat fitted, if I'm honest has never been perfect, it started playing up (least I think its the thrmostat) in that it would not respond to the transmitter unless i took out...

It was working fine firts thing this morning. Then no hot water or CH. Power light is on but no neon failure lights are lit. I can hear the pump start if I try to run the HW or CH but cannot hear a spark being generated. The 3 way valve assembly appears to be working (the probe slides out...

Hi, We live in a 1920's house which does not have a cavity wall. In our back bedroom we get an amount of damp on the two external walls, one of which is north facing. Externally the walls are rendered and painted with weathershied masonary paint. I've tried the painting the internal walls...

I've been a pillock ! I measured up for a shower door and bought a 800mm kudos curved one. Then tiled the shower area and now find that the door will not fit. The tiles have taken the opening down to about 700 mm. I'm assuming that the only way to fix this is to remove the tiles from one side...

My son has just had his bathrooms renovated. The new towel rails come on with the running of the taps. Basically this means that when you run a bath the towel rail heats up..very nice but is it correct. I was always taught that DHW and Heating should remain separate. Is this a new idea? and does...

Just wondered if anyone could help. I recently bought a toy ride in car for my Grand Daughter. Its 12 volt with two very powerful 35 watt wheel motors. My problem is its too powerful with only a foot switch pedal, which is either off or on..no slow power take up. So when she puts her foot on...

I've posted a couple of times regarding recent issues with my combi boiler and received great help..esp from muggles. Long story short...(my version it may not be totaly correct).. I had the PV replaced ( because it was leaking) by the guy who fitted the original system, 9 years ago. I then...

Can some one give me the possible reasons for the pressure within the expansion Vessel on my Baxi 105e rising please. I've checked the input tap to make sure it was not slowly leaking..all ok. It takes a few days for the pressure to rise to over 3 bars, I then have to release the pressure...

Strange problem - Whilst hot water is available on most taps in the house, one of them seems not to fire the boiler up consistantly. The tap is furthest from the boiler, not as the crow flies but due to walls etc has the longest pipe run. The boiler is 9 years old and has always worked without...

We had a new bathroom suite. The toilet, which is close coupled does not have the normal hinges. It has soft rubber bungs which drop into what would be the hinge holes in the top of the toilet and then you tighten a screw which pulls the bungs up and makes them bulge, which holds the seat in...
