    Main boiler turning on and off despite reaching room stat temp

    Thank you to everyone who has posted on here. It's all much clearer and guess the issue is whether I invest in a new boiler? Old maybe less economical boiler for next 10 years or replace at a cost with much more efficient and modern way of operating!! Any suggestions on what would be a good...

    Main boiler turning on and off despite reaching room stat temp

    I have taken a look at front of boiler. The temperate dial is as far clockwise as it can go. I assume this means the temperature the boiler can create is high or as high as it can go. Is there any merit in turning this down? Will this allow the boiler to stay on longer pushing heat to the...

    Main boiler turning on and off despite reaching room stat temp

    I will check out the temperature setting - thanks for suggesting All radiators get hot, they were balanced by CH engineer after some of them were not getting hot, so I'm happy with that being set correctly. The radiators seem to remain hot throughout as the boiler is as quoted switching on and off.

    Replace silver flexi hose on expansion vessel

    I've decided to leave it all alone. The silver flexi hose isn't something I could buy off the shelf. Would need to wait until Monday when plumb centre shops open. My system is serviced once a year and they just did it Wednesday last week. So I'm calling them back to buy the flexi hose and...

    Replace silver flexi hose on expansion vessel

    I noticed water coming out of a light socket on floor below where water tank and expansion vessels are. Looking in the cupboard it was obvious to see the silver flexi hose that connects one of two expansion vessels was leaking and judging by the amount of water on the floor it had for a day or...
