That's right, even with the UFH thermostat turned right down, the UFH comes on when the Central Heating or Hot Water comes on. I can send a picture of the manifold later, but I've attached a picture of the kit used. Thanks

Please let me know if I can provide any other information to help. Alternatively, if someone can recommend a UFH (water) repair specialist in the West Midlands, that would be great. Thanks.

Hi, Could some help please. I have a 10 year old water underfloor heating system (JG Speedfit kit) which has been working well until last week. The system is connected to the boiler and is also linked to the hot water and central heating system. When the hot water or central heating comes on...

Hi, I have an Accenta G3 alarm panel with two remote keypads, and an autodialler. One of the keypads sticks and I'd like to change it. I've been quoted £85 by the installer, but noted that the keypad can be bought for approx £25. 1. Is it easy for me to change it myself? 2. Can I replace...

Cheers guys, much appreciated

Sorry Chris, you were spot one. My shower mixer is crossing the water. The problem seemed to sort its self out last month, and I wrongly assumed it was by turning the temp down on boiler and tank. It reared itself on Friday night and BG man said it was most likely what you said. To be honest...

Anyone any suggestions or advice please ?

Hi I'm getting some cross over of cold water into hot water at a shower mixer valve. The mixer valve is difficult and expensive to replace, so I was wondering, if I fitted a check valve to the hot and cold water inlets would that prevent the cold water from entering the hot water stuff? Thanks

Thanks Chris I was wondering if it could be a safety device in the cylinder to prevent excessively hot water coming out. We had some work done on the boiler a few weeks ago, and I think he may have turned up the boiler temp up and/or the cylinder thermostat up. With the recent hot weather, I...

Hi I have an Ecotec Vaillant boiler and a Range tank. Its a unvented system. For some reason the water i get from my hot taps vary from very cold to very hot. The pipes around the tank seem hot. The heating seems to be working. Any ideas what could be causing this. Thanks Jazz

Hi I have Sky Broadband (okay, stop laughing) and have a Pentium PC connected via a cable and a Pentium Laptop via wireless. Broadband works fine on the laptop but unbelievably slow when using the PC. PC is slow even when laptop is switched off. Any suggestions? Jas

Hi, Last year had a rewire and included in that was a spotlight in a downstairs toilet. I believe the supply comes into a pull cord switch and then onto the spotlight. Can I add or replace the switch with a PIR. There is no windows in the toilet and therefore we always have to have...

yes, its the plastic condensor pipe, but is it normal to be losing this amount of water from that pipe?

Hi, I have a Valliant Ecotec boiler hooked upto to an unvented system. I've been losing water for the past week and noted one of the posts here advising me to check the outlet pipes at the back of the boiler. I seem to be losing a hell of a lot of water from the plastic pipe at the back...
