Hi there, THIS IS AN RS21NABB Fridge. I have a samsung american style fridge (non water dispensing one) and the was cleaning it out yesterday. I noticed that the left hand side deodorizer was frozen over. Right hand side was fine. Any research i can find on the internet talks about a bunged...

Hi Folks, I fix gas boilers in the evening but during the day i design Rainwater harvesting systems. My query is about running a washing machine from a header tank. Check through some threads and the general thinking is it is okay. Was more so wondering about doing this in a Bungalow...

Guy in work has noticed that his boiler is starting to chew oil. It is a 1992 Grant Minor. Reckons it has only started doing it since he changed the nozzle himself about a year ago. ] He fitted a 0.55 80 H nozzle and asked me is this the right size nozzle for this burner. Burner isnt a...

Went to this one today after spending all day sorting frozen condensate pipes!! Go this one and condensate pipe was frozen so sorted that. When i opened the boiler there was a load of water lying in it. Pulled off pipe to combustion chamber to make sure it wasnt full of water but nothing...

Hi All, Two jobs in oen week. Cant believe my luck!!!!! Anyway this Vokera had no HW. Boiler is running away and all the Heat is going into the CH so we have a DV problem. Now i pulled off the motor for the DV and am getting 240 V to it. The arm of the motor doesnt not appear to move...

Im starting to love these boilers!!! Servcied this unit at Christmas and everything was fine with it. Guy phoned me today to say that everytime he turns it off for a couple of days, sticks it back on its goes to lock out. Turns the reset button and away she goes merrily all night. Now my...

Called round to this one this evening on my way home. Basically it goes to over heat every 3 or 4 days (random) and she has to hit the reset button to get it going again. Pump is set at 3 and spinning away merrily. Stuck a screwdriver on it and to my ear and it sound smooth...

This might seem like a random question so bear with me. When removing the screws that hold in the blast tube on Riello burners to change nozzle i always found that one side was relatively loose and the other side was stuck right in there!! I had a long reach screwdriver which was the only...

Hi guys, Called out to this one because it runs for a while then kicks off on thermo and when it goes to come in again it doesnt light. You get the warning light flashing once per second which can be a number of probs. So i stripped it all down, set water pressure correctly, checked all...

Hi guys, Got called out to my first Jaguar. Heating is working fine but no hot water. So after trawling through here im lead to believe that there may be a problem with diaphragm in the DV. Is there anyway of finding this out before stripping everything down. Couldnt really see anywhere...

Hi again, Im back cap in hand. Have a EOGB burner that is locking out intermittently but usually first thing in the morning. Was first called out to it when it wouldnt turn over. New capacitor sorted this. Was still locking out so after checking spark, nozzle, fuel line, filters i...

Hi again guys, Was round there at a Monoflame Minor which has been locking out. Did all the relevant checks and pulled the burner unit out. When i tried to run the unit i had no ignition spark. Pump pumped oil fine but no spark to light it. Then turned the unit on and off at the wall...

Hi guys, Was out at a Baxi 105 e last night where the owner was complaining that she was only getting luke warm HW. I cleaned everything down, cleaned out the gas valve and re set the pressures. Checked the flow in HW taps with flow cup and they were okay. Only way i could get the HW up...

Alright folks, Was called out to a oil boiler there that i serviced 6 mths ago. Customer had run out of oil and pushed the magic red button too many times. Boiler wasn't starting at times etc. So i checked the capacitor and it was fine. Made sure line was bled propoerly etc etc. basically a...

Tony, Im continually giving thought on how to advertise and am now curious about your idea for a free efficency check. IMHO if you offer someone something for free they will snap it up and it gets you into the house and i can work my magic from there. What exactly would you include in...

Hi there, I have a small bathroom in a terrace house and have a problem with the paint on the ceiling peeling off. This is due to steam coming off the electric shower. I have an extractor fan and when i leave the window open at all times it isnt a problem. However my flatmate insists on...

ALright guys, Anyone know the Prt No for the a reduced pressure zone valve on a Glowworm 24 Ci (the brass valve that leaks when you fill it)?? Cheers Grill

Evening, Schoolboy question i know but sure im only learning. If i need to repressurise a Vokera Hydra do i turn the radiator type valve, which broke in my hand, to open and then turn the filling loop lever vertically downwards?? Then close off the radiator valve again and turn black lever...

Evening All, Was called out to a C & M brittony 80 Combi tonight that was making a noise like it was going to take off. Basically when i ran the HW the boiler started to scream just before it modulated down. When modulated down the noise stopped. I played about with teh water flow to get...

Guys, Was called out to a Ferroli Modena where the customer said the DHW was staying hot for 20 secs and then going cold. From reading through the forum this would suggest a faulty thermistor. Boiler hasnt been serviced for 3 yrs. 18 mbar working pressure at gas valve on CH. 12 mbar for HW...
