You dont need to be corgi registered to change a temp sensor ... £2.50 off eBay & do it yourself ....... baby!!

I guess Dimitri wont be getting help again :(

Yeah, he must have used the solenoid from the remote control car solution :lol:

You need to find out the make of the electric tension motor that will be in the roller tube. Is the button that is fixed inside the building that operates the roller hard wired in or does it have it own power supply (battery)?

Thanks Tony, It was the pins not coming fully out to trigger the flow switches, i called for CH & got the missus to turn the hot tap on & off & fired the switches manually with a couple of electrical screwdrivers, the fan & burner came on.. after a few seconds the pins extended fully.... they...

So i have replaced the DHW HE with the correct replacement. However on refilling both the circuits & turning the power supply back on i have neither CH or DHW now. The pump is working but no fan or burner. The lock out light is not on. The gas main supply is on but the burner doesnt not...

I'll extend the question :D Is flushing the system a DIY job, if there are instructions to follow?

So what i glean from this thread is that the way i have been installing my awnings, lighting & heaters doesnt not conform entirely to regulations. But the use of a fcu with respective fusing at the point were i normally use an ordinary jb would cure the problem in respect of safety in regards...

Dont ask ... the OP will tell you. Mostly domestic but with the occasional pub, social club, shop thrown in.

Would a problem with the way i install these items have shown up by now? as stated i've been doing it this way for over 8 years. With a couple of hundred installations a year (but probably only 20% with heaters) surely a problem would have arisen by now. All installations have a 5 years...

I use conduit for three 3 reasons really 1. It looks better than a piece of wire clipped to the wall 2. Trying to clip to pebbledash or weak mortar is a nightmare. 3. I thought you had to conceal/sheath electrical cable below a certain height. In answer to a previous post the lighting...

No, all the wiring goes to a junction box up by the awnings fixing brackets.. a single wire leads to the actual plug. :D :D or are you teasing me again :lol:

:D I dont mind being teased, i do it to my dog all the time. All the wiring that i do picks up the supply via its own 13amp plug.. i'm not messing with the actual ring mains of the building. Basically all the items that i fit come with plugs on ... i remove them & wire them into one plug...

Do you mean because the Heaters are a high voltage i cant fit them? The lights are low voltage & the awnings draw 1 amp on operation.

I've worked for the last 8 years as an awning installer, these are motorised so need a power supply ... some customers have light tracks & heaters (2kw halogen) fitted as well. The wiring for these items all goes to a single RCD 13amp plug which i get to the nearest available 3 pin socket. (...

Thankyou Tony. That all makes sense to me, the DHW HE will then be the next item to check out. It doesnt appear to be a problem to fit a new one on this boiler once the two circuits have been emptied.... however i would be concerned about another blockage occurring in the new one if there is...

Thankyou both for replying. Called for DHW, the water supplied reduced quickly to luke warm & neither of the 22mm pipes under the boiler heated up, so is the diverter valve in the clear? I've measured the DHW flow & gas rate. The water flow i did by filling a 5 litre container which took...

I have a Biasi 28s, its around 10 years old & for the most part has been a very good piece of kit. However its playing me up now & i seek some advice from whom ever can help. When DHW is called for the boiler fires up & nice hot water is supplied for about 5-10 seconds, it then very quickly...
