    The Mystery of the Whistling Boiler

    Thanks Ian My guy is a local independent Gas Safe engineer. He's been servicing my boilers and doing my Gas Safe Certs for ages. He just spent half a day and wasn't really sure. He thought it could be something like the gas valve or mix after everything else didn't make a difference. Thanks...

    The Mystery of the Whistling Boiler

    For around six months my Vokera Vision 25C has been making a short whistling noise when the hot tap is turned on. It started intermittently initially but now its everytime hot water is called for. I can’t recall any works to anything when it started. The noise lasts for two seconds max and I...

    Vokera Boiler & Nest Saga...

    Thanks for that... I've hunted through the instructions and cannot find this. It now looks like the photo below. I have connected it to the only projecting metal that does not house a brass/copper looking screw. At the base of the projecting metal stalk it is attached too is a metal looking...

    Vokera Boiler & Nest Saga...

    Thanks... What is it? What does it do??? I take it that is the left hole in the photo below? Does it matter that it seems to have been disconnected for ages? The one on the left here?

    Vokera Boiler & Nest Saga...

    Got it sorted and it works a treat! Many thanks. I even emptied the sludge from the condensate trap as it had directions printed on it. One quick question I took photos upon opening the boiler - before I had touched anything. Whats the rubber tube that appears to be hanging around for (see...

    Vokera Boiler & Nest Saga...

    Firstly I realise this is Nest installation post number ten billion - I've looked around online for ages. My new house has a Vokera boiler and I have spent most of the morning looking at wiring diagrams and scouring the internet... There is very little on Vokera and Nest. I have removed my...

    Suffocating in the Garden - Can my lawn be saved?

    Thanks for that - I'm just keen for it to look good... I might see what I can do as I don't think I can make it any worse and if I do have to re-lay / sew it its only small.

    Suffocating in the Garden - Can my lawn be saved?

    I wonder if anyone might be able to help me resuscitate my lawn. I have recently tried to revamp my lawn - after a shed and patio install saw it trampled to near death. I have thus far: > Mowed it short > Scarified it But ahead of sewing new grass seeds I wanted to aerate it. I cannot get my...

    Mystery Plumbing Under Drive! Can anyone tell me what this is??

    OK So I cleaned it all out. Put a cap on and paved over it. Sorted (I hope)... Now if only I could remember where it was... Thanks for all your help! PS I did put the screw cap back before covering it all!

    Mystery Plumbing Under Drive! Can anyone tell me what this is??

    Thanks Andy So I can just seal it with a removable lid to keep it clean. Mark where it is and put the paving back over?

    Mystery Plumbing Under Drive! Can anyone tell me what this is??

    Thanks for that - so should I clean it out and put a grid / drain over it? Or plug it off and cover it again as - so far as I can tell - there is no issue with rainwater drainage?

    Mystery Plumbing Under Drive! Can anyone tell me what this is??

    Thanks for the replies. It isn’t water stop valve access - that’s away along the drive next to the water meter. This is also much larger. I was thinking it could be a soak away... Should I bury it or put a grid it? Will water drain down and around that access plug?

    Mystery Plumbing Under Drive! Can anyone tell me what this is??

    Whilst cleaning my block paving I lifted a block to repair it where it had sank. Underneath I found this bit of 160mm waste pipe. It appears to have a small screw top access port inside it. It can be seen on the attached photos. It had no cap or cover. I am almost certain that it is not the...
