Hi, I changed a syphon on a stelrad doulton close coupled wc, changed the mounting kit and changed the foam washer. It leaked constantly from the front and back, so tightened up the syphon as much as I could replaced and it still weeped slightly. So changed the foam washer and put...

I went to service a back boiler and found the fire and the boiler were spilling, so I isolated the appliance told the customer to either get a builder to look at the flue or get some quotes for a new boiler ( told her I did not do swaps as she had not paid the bill up to date so did not want to...

Has anybody came across this before. On a y plan (GW ultimate 50 boiler) when the programmer is set to hot water only the radiators warm up substantially. When set to c/h only the cold warms up slightly but the radiators do warm up. I am tending to point the finger at the three port valve. Any...
