    Removing upvc window handle

    Diamond geezer ! Works a treat. On closer inspection I see it’s just the top part that seems to slide away but it does indeed expose the screw. Thank you very much - now to inspect the spindle to see why it won’t disengage the lock .

    Removing upvc window handle

    Hi all I have a upvc window that will not open when the handle is theme to the open position. I’m guessing it could be the spindle but I need to remove the handle first. There is only one visible screw as per attached and removing it does not loosen the handle at all. Does anyone know how to...

    thank you, to be honest I have not had this before - had old aluminum double glazed windows for many years and no issues with condensation.

    Condensation in double glazed unit

    thanks - this unit is only 3 years old. As I say there was a pool of water in the bottom the fame when I pulled the unit out. I guess this should not happen as there is a rubber gasket where the glazing meets the frame?

    Condensation in double glazed unit

    I’ve noticed this condensation between an obscure double glazed unit. The water appears to be dripping from the top . The first day I noticed it it hadn’t been raining for at least a week before and it always starts at the top. I took the unit out and there was water in the bottom of the frame...

    Boundary question

    Thanks for the response John. In this case it is a fence ownership question rather than boundary. The title register states about maintaining fences but that only applies to the north eastern boundary which backs on to a lane. Would it not have been established when the house was built who owned...

    Boundary question

    Thanks for your reply. Not familiar with the curriculum these days but having asked a couple of people about he boundary one was not sure and one thought it was what I would consider the northern boundary. hence my reason for asking.

    Nest Thermostat not firing up CH

    Ok so I tried this. Burner on, turned temp on CH right down. Burner went off. immediately put CH temp back to where it was, burner did not fire. Hung around for a few mins watched the temp display on boiler drop to approx 33 degrees and nothing. Mrs then went and turned on hot tap so...

    Nest Thermostat not firing up CH

    hey Chris, what you say seems reasonable and without any further info would repeated stop starts of the burner not end up being less efficient ? Perhaps even more so with a non-condensing boiler that we have although to be fair I do like the vaillant, it has served us very well. Also, heating...

    Nest Thermostat not firing up CH

    This makes sense, let me investigate if there is a setting that controls anti cycling frequency. Didn't think of that but valid point. Thank you.

    Nest Thermostat not firing up CH

    But I can hear the ‘click’ in the heatlink almost immediately after turning up the temperature on the thermostat; this indicates the heatlink has picked up the request and from there that should cause the boiler to fire up. Even after I hear the ‘click’ in the heatlink , 3 minutes later The...

    Nest Thermostat not firing up CH

    Ok, so I set a schedule last nigh and the boiler did fire up at the desired time, so something is working as expected. It then fired up this morning when i manually set the the desired temperature well above the room temperature. So this appears to demonstrate the call for heat is being read by...

    Nest Thermostat not firing up CH

    Thermostat is wirelessly linked to heat link. I use a Usb cable to put it into a wall socket. there is an I button on the boiler - currently shows s4, quick doodle search suggests it means burner on. Not sure if that’s just the last action as the boiler did fire immediately after I restored...

    Nest Thermostat not firing up CH

    Ok checked it all , seemed ok but reseated the cores - I had stripped a bit too much insulation of the cable hence the cores are showing but the cables are in. Still have the same issue - powered up boiler and neat app fired up heating. After that nothing on second attempt. I’m going to set a...

    Nest Thermostat not firing up CH

    Fair point let me reseat that - it was a bit tricky getting two cores in there even thought its only 0.75mm cable.

    Nest Thermostat not firing up CH

    Correct, 3 4 and 5 = live, switched live, neutral in that order. Does common not need to be fed from live at the boiler if these are not looped at the heat link ?
