    How do I take this tap handle off to access the ceramic valve?

    How do I take this tap handle off to access the ceramic valve?

    Hi all, I'm trying to take this Fohen Furnas tap handle off to check the ceramic valve as there is a drip. I've taken it apart as so and then removed a small grub screw inside the screw hole.

    Cold water firing up boiler - Vaillant ecotec 837

    Cold water firing up boiler - Vaillant ecotec 837

    Good evening chaps, I'm hoping some of you might be able to help. Excuse the long post but it might help to explain things clearly. In previous winters, we've had problems with the pressure dropping out each time the heating was turned off. The FAQs pointed to repressurising the PV, which I...
