    What combi boiler to replace an Ideal Isar HE30?

    How to connect a hose to a radiator to flush in situ?

    Thanks for the tips folks. I probably won't do this as it sounds too risky. I'll wait until next summer to hire a powerflush machine.

    How to connect a hose to a radiator to flush in situ?

    Hello all I'd like to flush a few radiators without taking them off the wall and outside due to the weather. I thought that maybe I could connect a garden hose supplying mains pressure water to one of the top couplings of the rad and flush through to the drain cock. I guess you could...

    Retrofitting a Honeywell CM927 wireless thermostat to system

    So I can install the Honeywell RF relay box where the old thermostat is utilising the existing wiring? Also set the Drayton Tempus Three heating to permanently on and let it control the HW as normal? I intend to fit TRVs in the bedrooms and there is already one in the bathroom. Thanks.

    Retrofitting a Honeywell CM927 wireless thermostat to system

    Hi, thanks for replying. I felt that I could keep the wireless stat on the coffee table in the middle of the living room to set an accurate temperature in the living space. I hoped it may also reduce gas use if it can control the heating more efficiently. The current position of the stat...

    Brown flakes appearing in tap water

    Hello I've drained the tank and cleaned it out. There was nothing in the tank except for sediment. The lid was on tight and there was definitely no brown flakes or any sign of any foreign objects. All I could smell was a faint whiff of chlorine, nothing nasty. Unfortunately the brown...

    Brown flakes appearing in tap water

    Not for the last few days! Yuck! I'll do as you say, I have a cone shaped rubber bung that will block the tank outlet. I dread to think what horrors await me! What I don't understand is why it only comes out the bathroom tap and not any other e.g. the en-suite. Could it just be a...
