    Megaflo, turn immersion on?

    Hate it when threads never get finished so...thanks for the replies and you were all on the right lines. Turns out with some professional help that it wasn't actually wired up. There was a switch next to the tank with power, but no cable to the tank. There is now though. I realise my OP was...

    Megaflo, turn immersion on?

    Hi, I have a megaflo indirect tank 300i and a system boiler. The boiler has a fault and is awaiting a part. I thought the boiler had an immersion built in but water is cold. How do I turn the immersion on? Thanks

    Altro vinyl flooring over small tiles?

    I have a shower floor that has mosaic tiles - 25mm - that are sound but stained. Rather than ripping it up, can I get Altro vinyl floor laid over it ? Thanks

    Noisy heating

    System is Vaillant system boiler feeding a Megaflo and central heating system upstairs and UFH downstairs. Controlled by 2 separate thermostats. The upstairs rads get hot very quickly which is great, but the water passing through is very noisy. The rads all have TRVs and if they are on 2-3 then...

    Megaflo - rubbish shower pressure

    I'm sure the guy from the water co said it was a 15mm main. And they'd charge me a few hundred £ just to do a survey on if it's possible to put in a dedicated main supply, and then it would be an enormous cost to get it into the house. No idea if the H&C are balanced

    Roller Blinds - how to release from the brackets

    Hi can anyone help me get my blind off the bracket? It is a spring one so no cord. Having checked a few videos, it looks like all I have to do is turn the white wheel 1/4 turn to release. The thing is it doesn't move more than say 5 degrees in either direction. I've put quite a bit of force...

    Verisure alarm

    Thanks, seems a huge shame to not be able to use them but if they're proprietary then I guess that's that. But why the peaberry coffee house? I was hoping that was a secret verisure sensor hacking site!

    Megaflo - rubbish shower pressure

    The main shower is upstairs where there is a big showerhead and also a handheld. There's also a handheld in the bath downstairs. The one downstairs has better pressure than upstairs. If you aim the upstairs handheld at the ceiling it just sprays about 5cm up and then falls away. I'd expect it to...

    Megaflo - rubbish shower pressure

    OK Ian - thanks. I redid the measurement and it's 15L hot into the bath. So the fact the bath is the same as the incoming mains but the shower isn't presumably means the MF is performing OK but there's some restriction either with the shower itself or the pipe going to it?

    Megaflo - rubbish shower pressure

    I probably need to measure it again! The water company measured the flow rate with a proper device, I am just filling up a jug in 6 seconds and x10.

    Megaflo - rubbish shower pressure

    Hi all, Don't know much about plumbing so please bear with me. Moved into a house that has a Vaillant system boiler and Megaflo 300L cylinder in the loft. Water pressure into the house isn't great at 2.5 bar and 15L flow, and it's shared with 3 neighbours. There's a bath downstairs that gets...

    Verisure alarm

    Just moved into a new house that has some nice looking verisure sensors at the windows and doors, and a couple of motion sensors in the house including camera! Also a wall panel but no control panel which has gone missing. I've no interest in taking out a subscription with verisure or anyone...

    Extremely loud banging from central heating in morning

    I hate threads that are started and never completed. So... I got a heating eng. out. Sod's law - the banging didn't happen. This was the day after I had bled the rads, but it had banged after that. But it didn't happen while he was here, and didn't happen today either so I think it must have...
