    Ravenheat RSF82ET - 'clicking' noise from pump

    Hi all My Ravenheat RSF82ET boiler is presently working fine - for now - both HW and CH. Upon switching the CH on, there is a continual clicking noise that comes from the pump that gradually lessens and eventually stops after about 30-60 mins of operation. After that, for as long as the...

    Slow weep on rad valve

    And bugger me if I've not tried tightening it - scared I'm gonna snap the pipe!!! I'm at the end of my tether with it now - and seem to remember seeing a tin of something in a shop once that stops minor leaks - you can I presume spray/squirt it on offending slow weeps? Anyone used this /...

    Might have a new combi installed...

    ...will the existing pipework be satisfactory, and is it likely that the order of the pipes that go into and come out of the boiler will change. What I mean is that on my Ravenheat, the gas supply pipe is far left, then hot water out, cold water supply, heating supply then heating return...

    Poor hot water in shower

    I have a combi boiler which at the moment is providing a decent level of hot water to all taps, but my shower is merely warm. It's a bog standard old style mixer shower (two columns, with a supply pipe feeding into each and meeting in the middle where the water descends into the shower hose)...

    Chimney extractor fans

    Hi there I have a hygena cooker hood extracter (app24120). To be honest, only the light has worked for a couple of years, and never bothered me until now. Had an engineer out to fix it assuming it was the PCB, and apparently not - its the motor which is goosed. He recommended replacing...

    Hi there I've a stoves efa600h electric oven and grill, and it's stopped working! It will switch on, and start up even as normal, but then after not very long (not long enough to cook oven chips) it's as if all power to it is lost, the clock goes off, everything! Switching it on and off at...

    Drop in combi water pressure - could it NOT be a leak?

    Hi there (again) Just another question. My combi quite regularly (weekly) needs the water pressure topping up to keep it at 1.5 (after it drops to about 1.1/1.2.) I suspect a leak but from all the pipes I've been able to access, there is nil to be found. that of course isn't to say...
