Hello, I've got an issue with my Bosch KTR15NW3AG/01 refrigerator that seems unable to maintain it's temperature. The only reason I noticed is that we had a new kitchen fitted, and we decided to go with a built-in Fridge. As the new fridge has less capacity the plan was to put the old Bosch...

Many thanks for the advice. I'll keep a close eye on it for the next week or so. Rain is forecast here in the coming days so it'll be harder to gauge if it's drying up or not,. A roof or waste pipe leak would be annoying and I'd want it resolved quickly. However, I think it's the thought of a...

Hello All, I would appreciate some help and advice on a problem with a possible water leak that I noticed the day after I’d had a water softener installed. However, at this point I don’t think the leak is related to the water softener installation. Apologies for this lengthy post, I just want to...

Hi, Yes I did. Velux helped resolve the issue very quickly. They confirmed the slider switch is a dummy on the hard wired version, and that to reset the pairing on the blind you need to reset the window motor. Here's what they said: They provided a new link to show the process and it was easy...

Hi All, We've recently had a loft conversion completed which included 4 electric (not solar) Velux Integra windows. 2 windows are in one of the bedrooms, the other over the stairs/landing, and the remaining one in the other bedroom. Yesterday I fitted the integra electric roller blinds on the...

I’ve currently got a Nest thermostat downstairs. I was thinking if the new upstairs was on a 2nd zone, I could just add an additional Nest. I grew up in a bungalow with a loft conversion, so know how hot they can get with the heating on. if I looked at Smart TRVs would that mean replacing the...

What I don't understand is that it only does this for central heating. If you open a hot tap the boiler immediately fires up.

Many Thanks for all the information... really useful.

Many thanks for this. The boiler was installed by the previous owner of the house, and didn't leave any instructions for it behind.

Hi All, I'm in the process of getting quotes for a loft conversion for our bungalow. We currently have a Worcester-Bosch Greenstar 34CDi Classic combo boiler (installed 2013) which we have been told will be able to cope with the 2 additional bedrooms. It's installed in the garage, so if it...

Hi All, I've got a question about my Worcester-Bosch 34 CDi Classic combo boiler. If the boiler is power cycled it takes approximately 20 minutes before the central heating will work. On the boiler temperature display it alternatives between the temperature and the -| |- symbol. I've attached...

Sorry for the delay in responding, and thanks very much for the detailed response. I checked the other side of the dwarf wall, and there is a damp proof course visible. The main issue with the post is when it rains, water sits on top of the wall, immersing the wood in water for periods of time.

Hi All, I need some help and advise with an issue which has been going on for a while. My house has an exterior wooden post which partially supports a bay window at the front of my house. Upon buying the house a few years ago it was clear none of the exterior woodwork had not been maintained...

Hi There, I've got a problem with a noisy Bosch Extractor fan. If memory serves it has a 150mm output, so I've had to use 2 reducers to get down to the 100mm ducting that is present in the kitchen. I've created a video here: The audio on the video isn't great. It sounds like something is...

Casting my mind back to the whole sorry saga, when I placed the initial service call I was told my fridge/freezer was so advanced it required a specialist refrigeration engineer. It turned out that the engineer in my area was on holiday, and they had no cover, so had to get someone from another...

Yes, drain hole definitely clear. The engineer commented that the top cover A cannot be removed, and the components fitted behind it cannot be replaced (the fan being one of them). He said the parts are fitted during assembly, certain areas of the unit are then sealed, and that’s it. Hence why...

Hi All, Around June last year I had smart meters installed which required the power to the house to be turned off for approximately 1 hour. A few hours after the power returned the freezer started beeping with a low temperature alert. This was surprising as the freezer hadn't been opened. It...

Out of curiosity... Is the mixer shower likely to be anything to do with this? I just can't get my ahead around this being a cause.

An update. The plumber came round earlier and regenerated the air gap. As a result the pipe is no longer dripping, and the initial higher pressure on the taps is no longer there. He warned me the situation was likely to return unless I dealt with the shower mixer issue. I think I will get...

Apologies for the delay in responding to those who offered advice on this thread. Just after posting it I went away on holiday for 2 weeks and it completely went out of my head. However, due to another issue with the installation I thought it would be prudent to resurrect it. I've attached a...
