First of all, I know nothing about UFH, never fitted, modified, repaired or specified it. I now need to quote for a combination boiler replacement and there are a few things that do not seem right about the existing setup and I need a bit of advice. Currently there is a Worcester Bosch 350...

Where are these auto-fillers I keep reading about? I've never seen one for sale or installed. Can someone provide a link please? Ta

Probably a daft question and I will speak to Trevi tomorrow, but has anyone got any experience in a combi conversion where a Trevi Boost is already installed? i.e. will it work? what effect will it have on the boiler? Any info gratefully received. Ta Mike

I know if anyone here subscribes to this lead generating website but I have noticed an interesting phenomenon and I wondered if anyone has any theories on this puzzling conundrum. For those that don’t know, potential leads are listed on the website and sent via email and SMS. Customer...

Anyone replaced one of these and if so how long did it take you to work it out? - me, three visits and two calls to the unbelievably patronising MTS support tw@t.

Can anyone recommend a decent set of spirit levels? ideally I would like to be able to recalibrate the vials if they get knocked or lose their accuracy. I'm fed up with buying levels that turn out to be anything but after a few months. Cheers.

A 31MFFI is letting by to central heating when there is a demand for DHW. Can anyone tell me what the serviceable components on the DV are please? not a familiar boiler to me.

I have a customer whom I installed an Ariston microgenus 31MFFI for a few years ago as part of a new system which has now developed a problem. The symptoms are tepid DHW and he had an RGI out who diagnosed a faulty diaphragm but now refuses (for some reason) to return to fit it. I have no idea...

I've just had a query from from a customer who specifically wants one of these installed. I've not installed one before, so downloaded the install docs to have a look. It all appears bog standard except for some reason they refer to their flow and return as being 3/4" - I checked - they are...

Like most I find nothing joists a complete pain, so anything to make it easier, quicker and more accurate has to be a good thing. So, I was thinking, wouldn't it be possible to use a normal wall chaser with a couple of wood blades on it? it has the width and depth adjustment so it would seem...

Hi all Just installed a Vaillant 937 for a customer who had his rising main replaced during the works. Unfortunately there wasn't much of an improvement - his flow rate is about 12 litres/minute. My plan now is to install two cross-fed 50 gallon tanks with a whole of house 3 bar pump rated...

Anyone know which is the flow as you are looking at it? Being really lazy now as I don't want to work it out for myself! TIA Mike

I know where I will be buying my olives from in future. Dont all rush at once The 22mm ones are only a little bit more :lol:

I am renting a place with extremely old plumbing; one of the many things that doesn’t work is the shower. This is an old Mira, which, according to Mira ceased production in about 1979. The property owner has agreed to pay me to replace the shower and will provide a tiler – as I am no good at...

Hi I am thinking of getting a wall chaser but do not expect it to be used too many times and don't want to spend a fortune on a Hilti or similar. I have seen the 1500W ones on eBay for about £70 and wondered if anyone has had any experience of them. I only have one job coming up that...

Went to see an old MKII Netaheat 10-16 in Bayswater yesterday afternoon. The owner was complaining about the high cost of maintaining it and was interested in a combi conversion. Anyway, when I asked him what he had previously paid for repairs he produced an invoice from last November for a...

I was round a friends house the other day and he was complaining about the lack of hot water from his Protherm 80e combi. The DHW temperature rises to and maintains about 32 degrees but goes no higher. Didn’t have any proper tools on me but from what I can see the following is true:- 1)...

Anyone got one, or knows where to get one please? Ta

Hi All A few months ago someone posted a link to an animated Y plan graphic. I can't for the life of me find it now. Does anyone remember it or know where to find it? TIA

Stupidly, I am starting a new full CH install tomorrow and assumed that it would be normal busines hours fom today. How wrong I was. I can't get any of the branches on the phone and none of them have answerphones, the website is no help either. Anyone know when they are re-opening? Ta
