Hmm, means I'm stuck with this pull cord? Can't even use the switch with integrated receiver that says neutral not required, as in having that switch mounted on the ceiling?

Hi there, I have tried searching for an answer, found similar discussions, but not exactly my problem. Long story short, I would like to not use the pull cord in my bathroom for switching on the lights and fan anymore, (it's old and I just don't like it, ,also doing a bit of redecorating) but...

Well, don't have any old laminate... Need to go and look for some off cuts. Or just fill the holes with something.

Two holes in the worktop left after new boiler installation and previous pipework tidied up a bit. Both 22mm. One has a cable from an electronic water conditioner running through it. Best way of sealing/covering them? Foam and paint, silicone and paint, epoxy resins? They're both next to the...

Can't do that unfortunately because of the bath frame underneath and thickness of panel. Should've bought the 12mm ply instead of 18mm, oh well, I guess silicone it is then.

Hi, Looking for some advice. Have made a bath panel from some plywood to which I have added some auto adhesive vinyl planks to somehow match the floor, hope they're almost as good as the LVT flooring and won't come off. At the bottom I have placed a small plinth which is siliconed all around...

I believe I'll need to dig a little deeper inside my pockets and get the boiler replaced asap, as I'm realising I don't want to spend anymore money on this one. From what information I could gather from other gas engineers, forums, reviews (obviously opinions are all different), help me out...

I know I shouldn't even be here anymore posting questions about this boiler, but budget is a bit tight at the moment so I'm just trying to save this one for a few more months until summer when I should replace it. Ok, previous problem posted at the beginning of this thread was resolved by...

Thank you, @Gasguru , for taking time to explain all these. I have only inherited the boiler 2 years ago when heating wasn't required anymore and the boiler had a fresh service certificate, so I just assumed everything is fine. However when the cold weather arrived and I turned the boiler on...

Well, there's definitely a leak of some sort, as seen in the pictures. I did call the engineer with my mind set for a proper discussion about replacing the boiler, however after he looked at it, we agreed that he'll replace the washers first and we'll test the boiler again after that. That will...

Thanks for your answers, will see what the engineer says tomorrow, hopefully it's just that, one or two washers. I didn't even check Intergas, will have a look at them too. So Intergas, viessmann and Ideal, am I ok considering just these? Maybe ideal Vogue or Max? As for removing the...

Hi, this is my second thread about the same boiler on this forum, which I believe says a lot already. But still looking for some advice. Roughly 10 years old Remeha combi boiler, we moved in 2 years ago and have so far replaced PRV, pressure gauge, expansion vessel and the last one was a...

Didn't know the isolation valves are prone to leaks as well, how are people supposed to clean their magnaclean filters if they're so fragile? Don't have any towel rails, so a bit more difficult to pour inhibitor inside the rads.

Hmm, nothing yet...

Hello again, after seeing my previous thread about the boiler leak was closed, issue which by the way was resolved after my gas engineer replaced both the diverter block and the actuator, it didn't make sense to replace just a cartridge inside the diverter block as it was all covered in rust and...

Thank you very much for your replies, Sorry Please see https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/diy-gas.8090/ Accessing this part involves breaking a seal which affects combustion and requires testing afterwards, therefore we can't give advice. Mod

Hello and nice to meet you all. I have searched the forum, but couldn't find a suitable answer, so here it goes. As the title says, my boiler is leaking. Good news is I know where the leak is coming from, bad news it will take probably 2-3 days to get the issue resolved, all gas engineers...
