Hi, did Ideal inspect this and suggest if it was correct or not?

my gas engineer who services it each year says its fine. Is your new build still under 2 years old? if so speak to the developer as ask the question. I'm guessing the drain of the sink isn't connected to any soil stack with ventilation but connected directly to the outside sewer pipe. If this...

Did you check your boiler is factory fitted with a 75mm sealed condensate trap as shown in the Ideal installation manual? if so then you'll hear the bubbling but it wont empty the trap so is safe to leave as it is.

Download the installation manual and read the section on the codensate drain and see if you come to the same conclusion as me.

is this an Ideal boiler in a new build property? My Ideal boiler gurgles as well in the utility room but as the boiler is fitted with a 75mm sealed trap according to the installation manual then this is fine.

Thats what I though, any regulation to quote to misinformed Gas Safe engineer?

Quick question please, can the condensate drain from a condensing boiler be routed into the F and E tank in the loft via a condensate removal pump or must it be routed into a drain? Thanks.

I use Wintex with a Mac via Parallels (or Vmware Fusion free version)

I cant answer the vented tiles question but can comment on the PIV system as that's what I have in my new build and they automatically switch off when the loft temperature rises to a certain amount. Just something to be aware off that they wont run 24/7. So they don't run in summer and then in...

I think it a good idea to have open/close alerts as it gives you more confidence you'll receive that all important alert if required. Many times the Texecom app will crash in the background on your phone unbeknown to the end user.

Texecom already make a 4g Smartcom complete with sim card fully contained solution, you just pay a £40 yearly fee to them for the connection.

Not sure how many kilowatts of heat you get from one pallet plus the effort to cut it up but we sell our old pallets here for £2 each to a local pallet dealer.

Cheers, found it now. I was expecting the usual picture.

The installation manual has no guidance at all about flue clearances other than when its on a flat or pitched roof. I have the full install manual so unsure why the information is missing.

I want to attach a canopy to the side of my house over the utility door, as you can see from the pictures attached the flue will be just under the canopy. The canopy will be 80cm deep and 200cm wide, will the flue be within the regulations in this situation? The boiler is an Ideal Logic combi...

no you wouldn't, I could adjust the bedrooms as I went to bed so when the CH timer switched on in the mornings the TRV would be at the correct position, then wake up in the morning and adjust them back down again ready for the day. Rinse and repeat and saved myself £400.

would you not just get the same saving running round the house twice a day manually changing the setting on your existing TRV's but saving £400 initial cost and ongoing battery cost? the running around would also warm you up so win win.

Its lazy and bad practice, belt and braces approach is always best if the option is there.

new build house by any chance? I can see that the metal back box hasn't been earthed.
