Hi Guys, I just moved into a new house, new house to me but a 1880s Victorian 3 story semi. When I viewed the house 3 months back I noticed the old Potterton boiler in the kitchen was sitting in the place where a cooker range would happily sit. The Potterton pipe from top goes out of old kitchen...

Micky, thanks for quick response. I thought it was normal (the steam thing) and it is not effecting her house, she is older so has prob not seen anything like it before. I will explain it is a condenser boiler and it is normal and GOOD for enviroment. It is the small heating control in the...

Hi, I have completely stripped out my house and was talked into buying the above system by my Corgi engineer and the Plumbing shop keeper. It was 2200 quid with whole house pipe work and installation was 1400 plus 400 for rad's in whole house. The Stanton cylinder is in a cupboard in my...

My merc has what i'm told is called a 'whiny diff' It is pretty bad. Can this be cured, or does it have to be replace? Does anyone have any ideas on cost? I really need to sell the car as I need something more economical as baby on way and belt needs tightening! Thanks...

Hi, I got a Ipod Mini and I have great difficulty using the bl**dy thing. The so called wheel drives me insane! I have handed it to a couple of other people and they seem to have problems controlling it too. :!: What are you supposed to do? Are you supposed to touch it really lightly...

Hi, I have a combi boiler a Ravenheat :cry: I have a mixer tap with shower attachment on bath and I use this to shower. As the water temp is not constant and I have been told (Via a previous forum question) this is normal I am wondering what the best option is. The power of the water is OK, it...

Hi, thank you very much for the reply - That makes perfect sense. At least I can tell my wife (who continues to nag about it) that there is nothing I can do about the problem. I suppose the only thing I could do to make sure I had a good shower would be to purchase I shower that takes main...

I have a mixer tap with shower attachment on my bath. The pressure is good enough while showering from the RSF 82ET which is located in the kitchen downstairs but as you are showering the water runs at different temp's, from scalding to freezing. Not nice. Is there anything I can do or shall I...
