Nice one Cash price for mates, I hope? Quote was £220 all in parts & labour. How does that stack up with you?

Engineer just away - circulation issue right enough and turns out it was the pump, which they bled & adjusted and now working fine again. Got a good price for them to replace if necessary and will monitor for now. Thanks again for taking the time to help! Really appreciate it

Thanks again Terry - managed to get an engineer so will see what comes next. The central heating pipes are internal with no cellar but are against the outside wall so inlet water pipe is very cold but don't think it's frozen. Here's hoping something straightforward!

Thanks Terry - I've just sussed that the condensate pipe is going to drain on the inside of the house at the sink waste so doubt it can be that, that was frozen. Apologies should've picked that up before posting. The one I was looking at earlier is the pressure relief right enough. D'oh! Can...

Thanks Terry - I know most condensate pipes are plastic but this one seems to be copper. The only pipes at the back of it going outside are that one, the water drain valve and the exhaust from the burner so can't see there being one I'm missing. The pressure when off is sitting at 1 bar and the...

Hi there, looking for some help diagnosing a fault on my Mothers boiler and not sure if it might be the condenser pipe or not? System is a Potterton Promax Combi HE plus and fault code displayed is E110 - Safety Thermostat. Have poured three kettles of boiling water over outside brass...

Hi folks, Looking for some advice on how to change the batteries on the wireless PIR's connected to a Risco Lightsys2 system? Can't see anything in the user guide or online manuals that I can find. Assuming that the system will need to be in some kind of engineer mode to avoid a tamper...

Think we're on to a winner - both LSV's weren't fully open. Opened both up fully and turned the thermostat to 25 - radiator now absolutely roasting! Cheers and many thanks guys!

Thanks pal - yes it's a one radiator zone for the living room alone and no TRV fitted to it. Would be surprised if it was sludged as the house and system is only two years old?? That said, it's worked perfect previously and been roasting so somethings not right. The rest of the house seems...

Cheers - apologies for all the questions, but would that still be the way to check even though the living room radiator is in its own zone?

Cheers Ian - apologies but I'm a total newbie to this, what's involved with balancing the system? Is that something I can do myself?

Hi, looking for some advice as to whether I might have a problem with my central heating. Boiler is an Ideal Logic Heat 15 and is running a 2 zone system (living room & rest of house) with Danfuss thermostats. Only 2 years old in a new build house. Problem I seem to be having is when I turn...

Thanks Footprints, managed to get a flat head screwdriver into the gap at the bottom of the window then manoeuvred it up until it hit the mushroom and sprung it up...hey, presto - window open! Now it's open, I can see that when I close the handle the bottom mushroom and lever bar go down, but...

Hi there, was looking for any advice on the best way to manipulate the opening of a jammed UPVC window lock. Having taken a good look at it, the handle is still operating the middle lock and top slide mushroom as I can flex the window outwards a few mill at those points when the handle is in...

Thanks Seco, much appreciated. Also respect where you're coming from re the expertise, time and know how! In general terms I know my limits with DIY and when it's time to turn to, and pay for the professionals...this helps a lot though and saves me a few quid when things are a bit tight...

Hi there, hope someone could help me with any advice and/or tips in replacing the heat canister in a 9.5Kw triton inscriptions shower? Was using the shower the other day when it tripped the RCD and on resetting found that the shower was running cooler on the higher setting. Have ran through...
