Thank you ALCPlumbing. BarWils have offered to machine me a new part to match the old one (for a reasonable cost) which is fantastic. I haven't been able to work out if it's originally from CPHart yet but thanks for the tip, it may well turn out to be theirs.

Hi all, I'm hoping someone out there can tell me the manufacturer's name of this thermostatic shower unit so that I can then locate the spare part I need to make it work again. I tried Barber Wilsons as it looks like them but they say it isn't. There is a flanged insert on each inlet elbow...

Okay figured it out. The boiler comes factory set-up with a hard link between LS and LR on the PCB. ie, it is ready to fire up the burner when flow is detected. The wire from my thermostat system wasn't attached anywhere, it was loose inside the boiler. I have now attached that wire to LS and...

Ha, interesting points about the lapped profile of cladding. Okay, I'll have to go back to the drawing board then, I was really hoping tung oil would be my magic solution here.

Pressure reading: It rest just under 1.5 bar and doesn't seem to change when I open any of the valves. I can't detect any sound of flowing water at the boiler when opening and closing that valves. I tried various combinations of valves. Digital display on valves: In fact the control system is...

Hi all, I have a western red cedar clad large shed. I need to keep water out as much as possible. I'm a fan of tung oil and have already given the shed two coats but some water still penetrates through the T+G joints. What are your thoughts on this? If I add more layers of tung oil I'm sure I...

Hi all. My gas combi boiler (Worcester Bosch 30CDi) feeds radiators in each room of my flat. As far as I understand it the boiler should only heat water (central heating water, I mean) when the electronic line from the thermostat is switched on, or in other words, calling for heat. This should...
