I have just fitted one of these from Toolstation. http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Plumbing/Toilet+Fittings/Siamp+Optima+Dual+Flush+Outlet+Valve/d20/sd2835/p86454 Neat bit of kit, looks well made.....but the performance is terrible - no matter how much i adjust it the water doesnt seem to...

Ok gents here is the solution to my problem. Pilot solenoid So thanks everyone. Some of you were cock on with your diagnosis! The moral of this story is (to those who stumble across this thread in the future), just get a pro in right away. I waited near two weeks fannying around and...

Ok gents. Fair enough. I don't agree with poolebybirths diagnosis either but he's trying to help so that I am grateful for. I will post up what the RGI uncovers. Just worried that the RGI will start replacing stuff until he finds a cure. Rather than carry out these checks. Would i get a...

Yeh they painted mine silver. Looks pretty. Guess it stops condensation forming on the pipes turning it green.

When boiler has just cut off, lights on front show the following OVERHEAT.........OFF BOILER ON........ON FAN ON.............ON PILOT ON..........ON BURNER ON.......OFF Continuity check shows the pilot valve solenoid at 1.5 kOhms which I believe to be correct. When no call for...

System been flushed (Not power flushed) but resultant water is very clear. Tank in loft is also clear. Not sure about the fan, but it does continue to run even when the main burner knocks off. Pump is new, so are the valves. I have removed the actuator from the 3 port and manually moved...

EDIT: Removed all my crap about the pressure switch. That sounds logical. Any one else concur? Cheers Foobix.

Thats the thing, it was! Big york stones too..... But you cant stop the water rising from below the level of the pond up, pushing the liner from underneath. What i have done now is cut out the liner, the water has filled the hole and in the space of a month is has gone nowhere, must be the...

I bought my house last year and one of the first things I did was build a pond! Daft I know but the weather was glorious and I was waiting for the bathroom suite to be delivered.... It was great with loads of Yorkshire stones around it and a waterfall. Plenty of wildlife too with dragon flies...

Hmm, sounded like Tony was just trying to help to me? And good luck with the other forums.........

Cheers Tony, turned the pump on setting 2 this morning to no avail. Sludge is still a contender but last Summer I drained and refilled at least 3 times and had clear running water - perhaps it has settled in the heat exchanger? Righty "Tighty" Lefty "Loosey"? Yep, they are open. I agree...

As stupid as this may sound when I passed my test 5 years ago I bought a classic car. 1972 Ford Cortina Mk3, pimped it out with big wheels and a decent sound system, it cost me only £500 to insure! Taught me everything i needed to know about cars. Did **** poor fuel economy though.

Thanks for the speedy replies. Pump is definitely running, valves either side are fully open. I replaced them recently with gate valves. Will turn the pump down to two and see how I get on. Will also test the potentiometer and report back. I have removed actuator from 3 port valve and...

Forgot to mention, the fan appears to be working.

Hi Guys, Firstly apologies, someone else calling on all your years of experience for free. I understand that this is a crime punishable by death on a lot of forums. I have a Baxi Solo 2 40 PF - 13 years old. The HW is luke warm, and so are the rads. The boiler has been recently...
