Hi folks. We tried to replace the shower bar from a Triton minuto this weekend with a Mira Coda. Unfortunately we couldn't because the bar fitting for the Mira is the straight through type and the z fitting threads aren't long enough. Would we have to start digging tiles out to replace these or...

Hi folks. Does anyone know if the internal sounder has a tamper on it if I try and replace it? Makes an electrical humming noise now and again. The keypad is also a bit ropey so don't fancy trying to input the code whilst that is on! I should add the alarm is a late 90s c&k securitech job with...

Hi folks. Hopefully someone can help guide us how to replace the euro lock on this french door. It is different to mine as there are no obvious ways to take the mullion off (no large screws). Is this a glass out job? Many thanks Andrew

Hi folks. I have a suprima 40 which I was going to swap the heat exchanger for a new to keep it going a bit longer. The gas engineer can't budge the nuts! We're left with trying to source new pipes and cut the old ones. The part number baxi gave me seems incorrect (5102730), the pipes are a...

Hi folks I've acquired a new cast heat exchanger to replace the existing one on our suprima boiler. It has slight surface rust inside, would be it worth filling the inside with a rust neutraliser/dip to clear any off before fitting, or is this a waste of time? If so what product should I look...

Hi folks, we have a 2014 Mira Thermostatic advance shower. Once turned on, it will stay on for a couple of seconds, then low pressure and service lights both illuminate and stay on. It will then shut down. Is the fault likely to be the flow assembly? My father said the filters are clean on...

Hi folks I have a '98 Suprima 40 and hot water cylinder (3 port valve), after approx 5 mins from cold and selecting hot water I get kettling symptoms (some fizzing/mild clonks) from about 60c to 70s. I have measured the temperature on the outlet with an infra red thermometer & the thermistor...

Hi folks I have a '98 Suprima 40, after approx 5 mins from cold I get crackling and popping from the boiler when its heating up. After another 10 mins or so it changes to more of a hissing sound like when a kettle is boiling. The actual fluid is clean, I have added 1l x200 via the bathroom...

Hi folks, not my boiler but by proxy I can hear it through the wall! Every few mins I hear the boiler try to start up about 5 times, this can last between a few seconds or usually about 20-30 seconds. This starts about 10pm usually when the heating goes off and lasts all night. Does this...

Hi folks, Has anyone had experiences with the Sifan fans for the Suprima boilers being noisy? My neighbour has one (2 screw type), mine is the original ebmpapst one (3 screw), these seem much higher quality so I'm going to try and get one fitted next door as well as renew mine as next doors...
