7 yr warrenty with the plus NOW!

What happened at the company - who was axed who was hired? What sort of a company is it to work for? It is strange to find a manufacturing success in the UK – look at the complete unsalable crap produced in the UK that has no hope of an export market. How does Ravenheat survive and Halstead? The...

What is very degradable is the pushfit toilet cistern overflow pipes they turn to powder - course they tend to be a thing of the past in newbuilds

Hanson you live in Bournemouth (down the road in Southampton) a hard water area.It would be interesting to see how the Intergas lasts. On reading the blurb it appears that a suitable "Conditioner" is essential in order not to invalidate the warranty. I have emailed Intergas and await a response...

Never really thought of Intergas Dutch and with an interesting heat exchanger arrangement only been in the UK since 2008 I wonder about getting suitable people to service its bad enough in the UK finding people capably enough to service vaillants Glow Ws Worcesters etc. I am assuming these...

Gluing copper pipe! It is very very strange that there are no such glues in everyday use and manufactured by the big boys German Henkel/Bostick et al Why? Glues have come a very long way in the past few years. I always think of theSydney Opera house and the problems they had gettin the tiles to...

Looking for a new boiler. What/which is the most reliable - non sticking valves simple electrics. Simple cheap parts/repairs. Loving simple engineering like as what I do remember the old Vaillant from 25 years or so ago with all them little 1/8" pipes and built like excrement house doors used to...

Combis Vaillant 837 or Worcester 30cdi ?

Everyone goes to so called Uni now (no fails now) doing Media studies and social work et al Now what idiot is going to work for a living in the Uk when public service jobs without responsibility can offer wall to wall sick leave (look at the Police) and an inflation proofed pension at 60. Get...

Great to see someone using their initiative and not letting something beat them

Grimly Well have you turned off the valves on the central heating flow and run the hot water? Have you tried restricting the water flow at the tape (if not on the cold water inlet pipe) After fitting the sardine tin exchanger the thruput of water is greater to some extent This boiler is...

Agree much safer to tidy up and use all copper.

Personally its against my religion to use anything but a combi - you will of course now have to fit a condensing boiler due to the "NEW Rules" Get a combi with a good output. I prefer Valliant. I have Valliants that are over 20 years old with only new rubbers fitted - they just wont wear out!

What is the "New" radio frequency for radio controlled thermostats?

I have used plastic myself for the past 20 years and its always proved very satisfactory. However the leaching of chemicals from the plastic is not something I am negatively aware of. Now lead is another matter - now was it not responsible for the fall of the Roman Empire? !

Ravenheat 120 anyone had any experiences. This one has the fanned combustion unit unlike the 85 with its extra recovery unit and is Nox 5

As you indicated Tony! On arrival it proved to be the fan following a clean /lube was returned to service.

Tony was also correct when he indicated this was the answer to a somewhat similar fault. In our case on arrival at the boiler it was found the fan was not working suitable. This was fixed by cleaning and lubricating the fan.

30" (76 mm) is best the depth

Many thanks Tony. Hope they have turned it off I was hoping you would respond!
