We called an expert to call out today so we also have it in black and white that it needs replaced ASAP. With the amount of problems and the grants available we are also going to get him to price up to rip everything out and replace with gas also.

Thank you all so much for your help. I really appreciate it. I will post an update when it's all sorted but it's definitely not a DIY job lol

Do these apply to N.i as well?

I feel like just contacting an oil/gas registered business and getting them to do the work and sending the invoice to the landlord, because legally speaking he needs to do it?

Our landlord doesn't even get our boiler serviced. He lives abroad and the estate agents who we deal with is an absolute nightmare

Yes it seems like it is completely bodged. I will contact the landlord and make sure it gets sorted ASAP! Thank you for all your help

We have a a tank(bag) store in our bathroom. I always assumed this was seperate and just for immersion heating. Will I take a picture of this setup too? I couldn't find and port valves in the attic as well no thermostat. We don't even have room thermostats. I'm assuming that what I took pictures...

I have a hot water tank in the attic, a water heater tank in the bathroom and then boiler out in the shed. I've attached pictures because you would definitely have a better idea than me mate. Sorry for the idiocy lol

Hello all, was wondering if you would be able to help. I have a gravity fed system with an oil boiler. I ordered the Hive hot water and Thermostat kit in the hope we don't have to turn on the heating just to get water. Opened up the current controller where I was planning on putting the hive...
