    Triton Opal 3 Electric shower fault

    Hi, the shower head is the original. Strangely it doesn't have any means to open it for cleaning. So I replaced it yesterday with the brand new one from the spare shower I have. It's fixed it. So the conclusion is the flow through the head must be restricted. Still can't figure out how to open...

    Triton Opal 3 Electric shower fault

    Hi, Ive had the Triton Opal 3 Electric shower for about 4 years now. All been fine, but we have noticed that when the weather is warm and presumably the incoming water temperature is a bit warmer, the shower is too hot even with the control on minimum. By pressing the top button (2 red symbols...

    Do I have air in the system?

    You will be pleased to hear that Muckies heating is now back running correctly. The problem was indeed air in the system and despite many attempts to clear it; it was proving a difficult thing to fix. However, my method to clear it was as follows. Attach drain pipe to ground floor rad...

    Do I have air in the system?

    The pump is working, I have released the central screw and it is definately turning. This system is about 10yrs old, the deposit in the tank looks like a brown powder, I had imagined this was a deposit left by the house builders. Anyway, I have searched high and low and there are no...

    Do I have air in the system?

    No I can't see any bleed valves near there, Why don't any of the 2 pipes from the MP Valve get hot? It really seems that the water won't get past it. M

    Do I have air in the system?

    before the boiler turns off, the hot water gets from the boiler past the pump and up to the mid point valve in the airing cupboard. The pipes from this (1 to the tank and the other to the heating I suspect) are both cold whilst the feed is boiling hot. Could this valve be faulty? The valve...

    Hi ollski, There is 1 above the boiler, which appears to be linked to the header tank boiler feed pipe, but I can't see any others where would they normally be? Muck

    Do I have air in the system?

    Hi again, I have totally drained the system, and refilled it, flow from the expansion tank is ok. The boiler fires up for 2 mins then shudders to a halt, the cut off trips under the boiler. The pump appears to be operating correctly, there is no obvious reason for this problem, as it was...

    Do I have air in the system?

    Initially when I first re filled the system the rad started to warm up as normal, then after 10 -15mins or so they just stopped heating up. Now the boiler closes down before they have a chance to heat up. So I suspect that there maybe a blockage as described earlier, this blockage probably...

    Do I have air in the system?

    Yes the system is vented and pumped, The tank appeared to be filling and emptying in to the system, however I noticed that there there was plenty of gunge in the filler tank when it was re filling. It is possible that some of this could have entered the supply as the gauze filter has become...

    Do I have air in the system?

    Having just replaced a radiator with a towel heater, I have refilled the system having bled it. However when I turn the boiler on it fires up for around 2 mins and then the cut off/reset switch trips, followed by a loud girgling of water. I suspect there is air in the system and have bled...
