    Boiler cyclinder leak - Can anyone confirm the worst please?

    thanks alot - I've just found a picture of what it looks like at the back and what you say makes sense, I guess I'm clutching at straws! As I'm afraid to touch the thing, and create a bigger leak (!), I will ask the fella who has quoted for the repair to inspect it, in case its not the cylinder...

    Boiler cyclinder leak - Can anyone confirm the worst please?

    I have a leak from my Ariston Primo ITI 210 cylinder. I have been told that its unserviceable and been quoted £1200 for a supply and fit for a Worcester replacement. On inspection I can see the leak seems to be coming from from the bottom of the thermostat box (if that's the name for it!) where...

    Faulty Radiator? Any Radiator experts on?

    It's a large double rad (1600x452mm) rated at 5630 BTU and the plumber said it was fine size wise. As mentioned the rest of rooms are fine. It probably doesn't help that the rad is in the corner of the room. I have noticed now that the TRV is on the return side - I've read that modern ones are...

    Faulty Radiator? Any Radiator experts on?

    The boiler isn't set to max - the chap that fitted the boiler said he set the water temperature to 60 or 70 degrees (can't recall, think he said one of these) - what would you recommend? The radiator was fitted by another chap, a professional plumber, so I assume if it had knock out bits to...

    increase heat output of "designer" vertical radiators

    I posted up a new thread here recently, not knowing this old thread was a similar talking point. If some of you guys could take a look at my thread below (and look at the thermal camera pictures please), I'd appreciate any input if you think my vertical radiator is faulty or not. However going...

    Faulty Radiator? Any Radiator experts on?

    It's the C2 - I've no experience of them so if you have any pro tips/links regarding finding issues in housing/buildings please tell! (I've read the manual and it does very briefly offer picture examples of poor insulation and drafts but not much detail at all/perhaps its a just a case of using...

    Faulty Radiator? Any Radiator experts on?

    Thanks. Do you not think it looks noticeably uneven in the new radiator in the top picture? All my other rads look much more even like the one in the bottom pic.

    Faulty Radiator? Any Radiator experts on?

    I've recently had a new radiator installed in my lounge and I think it might be faulty but I am wondering if its more down to my system. My old radiator was a large double radiator and it never got proper hot. Even with rebalancing the rads to get it as hot as possible it was never that great...

    hotpoint BD42 oven grill replacement

    thanks. I ended up getting it out. One side was a struggle but the other was a nightmare. My fault for not using the right size head screwdriver so the screw was burred. Ended up yanking to loosen it up, pulled it to one side so I could get some movement in my hand to screw it out with a bigger...

    hotpoint BD42 oven grill replacement

    I've got to the back of the oven and expected to be able to unscrew the connected screw from the back. Does't appear to be possible at all. I've taken a picture where you can see the grill element connectors. So I know I have to get to the back to disconnect and then connect the new...

    hotpoint BD42 oven grill replacement

    Can anyone tell me if the grill element needs to be removed and then replaced by first removing the faulty one from the the back of the oven, in other words by taking out the oven? I've tried unscrewing one of the two elements from inside the oven but to me this seems impossible as there is not...
