Hello all, For about 7 days I've being experiencing what appears to be a sewer gas smell in the vicinity of my utility room (where boiler and washing machine are) and the nathroom which is adjacent. Gut feeling is that the smell originates in the utility room area but not 100% sure on that...

Hello, Please bear with me as I'm no expert on this! I have an INTESA 23 TP MFFI combi boiler that was installed about 5 years ago when I moved into the house. Anyway, we had all sorts of problems initially with leaking pipes under radiators but we solved that. Earlier this year, the boiler...

Good evening all, Just after a little bit of advice. Have had the above boiler for 4 years now and it's been a bit temperamental in that time but all I've had to purchase for it has been a couple of thermistors. On those occasions, the hot water wouldn't work and a chane of thermistor has...

Hello everyone, Am considering purchasing a 5 year old Skoda Octavia 1.9TDi Elegance from a dealer. Nice looking car etc but my one concern is that the MOT is due in just 6 weeks. Is it almost standard practice to ask the dealer to do a quick check to see if there are any issues...

Thanks Tom. Will give that a try!!!

Good morning I recently moved house. The windows have wooden frames. The previous owner painted all the woodwork whilst the windows were shut. As a result the pain has got into the gap between the top and bottom sections of the window. Does anybody know what implement I should try to use to...

Thanks Shaneo. I'm struggling to find anywhere that stocks Intesa parts. Could somebody help please?! Thanks!

Good morning Could someone help me please? It appears I may need to purchase a new pressure relief valve for my Intesa Combi Boiler (Gas). What price can I expect to pay for something like this? Arough guideline would be great. Thanks

Hello Am considering using Weyroc as a substitute for floorboards beneath my dining room carpet. Does anybody have any experience of this and is is a recommended practice? Thanks

Chris R Thanks for response 1. It is an an Intesa combi Boiler (Gas). Not sure of precise manufacture number. 2. After topping up system to just over 1 bar the system tends to gradually fall back to zero. The drop in pressure starts to appear noticeable after 45mins or so.Eventually it...

Hello I have a combi boiler and am having to top it up with water every day. This has only occurred very recently. I have got some people in to have a look and no leaks can be detected anywhere. Anybody know why this could be happening then? Somebody has mentioned a possible problem with a...

Thanks for the advice. Can these gutter brackets be bought at places like Jewson's, Focus, B&Q etc ? Thanks again

Hello When the wind blows in a certain direction there is often a loudish rattling noise to be heard at around the gutter level or just above. I've been told by various people that it could be anything from a problem with a gutter bracket to roof felt flapping in the breeze. Does...

The guttering above my house is making a loud rattling noise when th ewind is blowing. I haven't been up to check ( no good with heights ) but would like to get it fixed. From ground level I cannot see the guttering moving but it must be because of the type of noise coming from there. What is is...

Had a major leak repaired on Saturday. Before the leak the pressure would drop to zero in about 20 minutes. Now pressure is slowly starting to drop and will drop about 0.5 bar in about 8 hours. Does this mean that I may have another leak or could it be that there may still be a bit of air in the...

HAd a huge leak fixed on Saturday morning!!!!! HAs made things a lot better but the pressure is very slowly starting to drop and I've had to pressure up again a couple of times. Whilst the pressure would drop to zero in about 20 minutes before now it has lost about 0.5 bar in about 10 hours. Is...

Hello everyone Had someone come around last night and we are now convinced that there is a leak somewhere. A firm is coming tomorrow to take a look so hopefully it will be fixed then. Major hassle really when you consider that part of the reason we moved there was because it had a brand new...

Bled the radiators last night and turned the water pressure up. When the pressure reached 1.5 bar I stopped and continued to bleed the radiators. The gauge went back down to practically nil. Followed the same procedure again and drained all air out (or so I thought)and got to stage where just...

Thanks Richard. Want to get to the bottom of this! Just finsd it strange that there may be a leak when evrything is brand new! Thanks

Hello Have just moved house into a place with a brand new combination boiler and new radiators. They were fitted prior to me moving in. Built the pressure up using the mains cold water inlet and the thing fires up nicely. After about 30 minutes though the pressure has fallen to zero and the...
