Hi, my shower pump has started leaking :( Opened it up and noticed that the leak seems to be from the bottom two pipes ... the lower entry (unused pipes) which are blocked off will i need to totally remove the unit from the wall and remove the two "plugs" and get new one's or is there a...

I was thinking might do the rough calculation.... I only use just over 5500 KWh of gas per year, wonder how much the extra cost of an electric boiler will compare to gas over say 5 years to the cost saving of a cheaper electric boiler (compared to a heat only gas boiler) and the bigger saving...

Thats usefull to know, *if* i ever change my baxi then..... I'll look for a heat only boiler.... I can easily change the grundros pump myself in future if it ever died, not so with the pump in the system boiler :) PS Although with the way things are going the future replacement will probably...

Oh Ok thanks thats reassuring

Hi, I was under the impression that the new system boilers are like the baxi (a lot simplier than the combis), thats why I want to stay away from combi's, or are they just as complicated these days as the combis?

Interesting ..... Just out of interest were in the country are you, who do you use please? I've had various engineers around to look into my itermittent problems, but I get the feeling they are either just wanting me to install a new boiler, or worried that they dont really have the experience...

Its open vented, I remember cleaning out the gunk from the small tank in the loft a few years ago :)

Hi, I have a trusty baxi solo 3 30 PF system boiler nearing 25 years old, still going, but probably not for long :) Its rated output is 5.86 - 8.79 kw, which is *more* than enough for my *small* well insulated house (output is always set below medium on boiler). It heats my open vented Y plan...

Ok thanks will purchase one and try that, although I assumed this relay got its power from the separate power supply ive attached to its +ve -ve terminals. When alarm goes off the INT connection on the panel (connected to the "s" input pin next to the +ve -ve input pins on the realy) goes from...

PS I've got a multimeter... only use it for checking voltages and which is _ve +ve :)

I'll have to buy a different relay for that :) (the J3 connectors on the g4 panel are made for active low)

i think this it it..... http://www.satistronics.com/mini-12v-dc-power-relay-srd12vdcslc-songle_p2160.html from alarm manual..... " OUTPUTS (J3): These outputs are programmed as active low output. They are held at 13V and fall to 0V when active, it can source or sink 10mA" so the 10mA "sink" -...

its an active low relay... i think that means relay will come on once voltage drops to zero on connection... the g4 alarm panel has that conenctor (on J3)

i have "sliced" the positive cable going to a normal 4 gang 13 amp extension (into the relay), the lights are attached into the extension

Hi purchased 1 port version of this...

I'm putting in concrete ones as this end will then be one side of a covered roof the joists for the covered roof will be going on a wooden beam going across the top of the existing concrete posts (the beam will not rest on the boards just the top of the posts (the last concrete board will be...

Hi I have a standard 6 x 6 fence using 8ft concrete posts with 1ft concrete gravel boards I was looking to remove the 6x5 panels and slot/stack five 1ft gravel boards on top of the existing gravel boards.... 1) How hard will it be to lift them above 6ft and slot them in, 3 man job? 2) Is...
