    Low water pressure after meter change

    We have just had our mains water meter changed by the water company. Since then we have found a drop in the cold water pressure at many of the cold taps around the house. There appears to be at least one tap which has reasonable pressure with the others being poor. With the others the water...

    Faulty Ideal Classic FF280

    Faulty Ideal Classic FF280

    Just had someone out to look at it. It turns out it is the fan sticking after all. The humming noise was just the electrical hum. When the fan can spin up the burner ignites and it works fine. So hopefully he can get a functioning fan to replace the old one. Otherwise I shall have to wait till...

    Faulty Ideal Classic FF280

    Having looked through the 'fault finding' section in the manual I believe the humming noise will be the fan? The part after that is asking if the ignition electrode is sparking. I can not see any evidence of that so ...

    Faulty Ideal Classic FF280

    It doesn't work. Just a humming sound from the boiler indicating power to the boiler. The burner doesn't light and the pump does not appear to be running. So no heating and no hot water. Why do these things always happen at the start of a long weekend? That question was just rhetorical.

    Faulty Ideal Classic FF280

    The boiler is 15 years old. It has stopped lighting. There is just a hum sound, indicating power to the boiler, when the thermostat demands heat. Would that be a faulty pump? Is it worth repairing after 15 years or would it be wiser to replace the boiler completely? The system has had a...

    Central Heating System Pressure

    I am in a hard water area but fitted a water softener some years ago. That would prevent any scale build up.

    Central Heating System Pressure

    My central heating is a sealed system which seems to lose pressure. There doesn't appear to be dripping from the pressure relief valve outlet. When I add more water to the system the pressure increases, but drops again after a while - a few hours. I have used some Fernox F4 superconcentrate...

    Loss of Colour and Texture in Farcry

    Thanks for that Dave. My other card was an 8800GTX which did play Farcry okay. The replacement card is the 9800GT which they talk about in the custompc review. I should be getting the 8800GTX card replaced under warranty.

    Loss of Colour and Texture in Farcry

    I have had to change my graphics card from an nVidia 8800GTX to an nVidia 9800GT. When playing Farcry some of the graphics disappear. Water becomes white or off white with no texture and some of the graphics white-out as well. Is this a problem with the driver or is the 9800GT not powerful...

    Numax Car Battery Date of Manufacture

    Thanks again for those replies. I had come across that .pdf file but had missed the bit about the date codes. The only two letters I can find on the battery are PP which doesn't correspond to any of the date codes! Tayna seem to be pretty good so I think I can rely on them, but you can never...

    Numax Car Battery Date of Manufacture

    Thanks for the replies. I have searched online and Numax don't appear to have a website so I don't have an email address. I got the battery online from Tayna so taking it back would be a problem. I shall email them to see if they have an answer to this. I wanted to get some independent advice...

    Numax Car Battery Date of Manufacture

    Yes there was a receipt. The receipt does not give the manufacturers date for the battery, and will not anyway. I have checked on the internet and there is very little information about this. There is information saying that batteries should have a date of manufacture on them and that a use by...
