Cheers all, agree ten years is short. Though I do think this is a fair bit older, it had a sticker on it from manufacturer which still said 'Corgi'!

Appreciate any help on this guys. Noticed the boiler is leaking at the bottom from the rear left hand side. Pics attached for info, and I've highlighted where the water drops are travelling from. For information this leak does not affect the water pressure, haven't had to top up since this has...

It does move a little bit but the metal flex connected doesn't seem to budge. I do have a sore thumb now! I assume there is some sort of knack to this, just haven't got it yet!

Hi, I'm trying to disconnect the two pieces in the pic unsuccessfully, has anyone else had similar experience or something like this? It appears to be a kind of push fit connection with a button or lever to help release but cannot seem to do so. Any tips on how to separate the items would be...

Thanks will take a look.

Cheers, I've already made my first mistake by confusing roller doors with sectional (which is what I think I want).

Looking at replacing a battered and broken up and over garage door with something more functional. Thinking a roller door as would require less opening space. Possibly motorised to save effort opening. Are there any particular brands to look out for or avoid? Is aluminium ok and strong...

Cheers all! I've been away on hols so forgot to post back. Anyway have a local Gas Safe engineer coming out tonight to service and take a look at the flue. Also surprised the 'floating flue' has not been picked up prior.. all the work was done long before I got this place but it has been too...

Hi, I have a Worcester green Star combi 30si. The component which I believe is the flue going outside the garage from boiler has a leak at two of the joints as you can possibly see in the attached pic. Simple question, is this a DIY'able fix or is it compulsory for this to be seen to by a...

Got you, that makes sense... Stem's diagram is the idea scenario. However my problem is that my current cable is missing the extra wire I need to connect to Ns, it only has 4 wires + earth.

Thanks, based on boiler manual all wiring to a thermostat goes from Lr, Ls, Ns. I guess since the Hive says it should be connected to a permanent live, is that the reason you say I should not be using the Ls? What is the impact of using Ls instead?

Thanks for the reply and advice! If I understand correctly the diagram below should suffice. If I was to change wiring at the boiler, Id need an additional wire in my current 5 core flex (is there such a thing as a 6 core?!) so I could connect the Ns to N on the Hive receiver. The alternative...

Another hive thread! Hi all wanting to replace my current digital timer/thermostat with a hive V2. I have a Worcester Bosch Green Star 30si Combi boiler. My current setup is as shown in the attached image. The thermostat is in my landing and boiler is in the garage. The boiler connects to a...

Thanks for this. For my understanding, what is the purpose of each of those wires? ie Are they both 'live'? Thank again

Hi all, Need some help swapping out a current T40 Thermostat for a Horstmann DRT2 Got two images below, one of the current wiring into the T40, and the other of the diagram from the DRT2. I HAVE had a look at previous threads on here and other sites, and am getting confused as I can't seems...
