When you have google and can buy the correct diagnostic equipment you can do many thing's, you make out as if it's complicated when it's not. I know more about gases, pressure, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, combustion, mathematics etc than you'll ever know, it's not just theoretical either...

That's fair enough, I appreciate the safety aspect as I can very well imagine what some DIYers can do. Thanks, much appreciated.

It doesn't mean that it's impossible for an unqualified person to do things to the correct standard, the problem isn't physically doing the work but finding the correct parts when the availability of the manufacturer parts for this boiler makes them extremely difficult to find. Will a qualified...

I've decided that I'll just extend the balanced flue through the carport. The horizontal flue pipe coming through the wall is aluminium, do I have to use an aluminium elbow to take it up vertically and another aluminium pipe to take it through the carport? I've been on for hours looking for...

Thank you

Thank you everyone.

Thanks, one end is open and the other end is temporarily as there is a door, there is a good draught blowing through. I was hoping that there would be a universal fitting to fit on the wall for a 100/60 flue once I remove the 105e terminal.

If I instead fit a balanced flue to take it up vertically through the carport roof would you know if there are any fittings available so I can leave the horizontal flue in place that is already going through the wall, it's a shame that it's cut so short? I'll need a vertical flue adapter? These...

Thank you. Obviously if I get the correct size plume piping I can get it to fit, I assume the problem when fitting a plume kit to a non condensing boiler is the extra condensate you'll get in a single 60 mm pipe compared to a balanced flue that has the outer 100m pipe providing some insulation...

Hello I have a Baxi 105e with a horizontal flue that's under a carport, we've now closed the carport at both ends. Am I right in thinking that I couldn't fit a plume kit and take it through the roof as it'll be in a different pressure zone to the air inlet? What if I had the plume pipe above...

The blue crimp connectors are a perfect fit for 2.5mm twin an earth but you obviously have to make sure they're crimped properly and the wires won't come loose. The Wago connectors are really good and spring pressure hold the wires tight...

If you follow the instructions for the macerator regarding pipe runs, I know you have to be careful with bends. We fitted a macerator 20 years ago, 32mm pipe, 4.5m underground but fed the pipe into the side of a sewer chamber 300mm down and bent the pipe down and fed it into the outlet at the...

I did just join to answer your question. haha :) I'm not in the trade, just looking for idea's as I'm also installing a new soil pipe. :)

The sewer can be shallower than 600mm if protected properly. Have a look at, "Protection for pipes laid at shallow depths", page 19 www.planningportal.gov.uk/uploads/br/BR_PDF_ADH_2002.pdf You need a slope of 1:40, or 1m run = 25mm fall, so a run of 15m = 375mm fall
