That's for sure. I'm 51, grew up in a terrace house with a coal fire in the living room, that was it. Teenage daughters though, don't know they're born!

Next day is fine. I'm talking contacting them on Tuesday morning after the boiler failed on Monday evening and it will hopefully be repaired on Thursday afternoon.

Ok bit of an update. Called Atag yesterday morning(or the company that looks after the A series warranties now). The soonest they can get someone here with a fan is Thursday afternoon! They didn't give me this information until 4 pm. Local Part Centre can get the fan next day, which is still...

Yeah I'll do that in the morning. Atag state full service at 4 years, visual inspection has been carried out by the approved installer annually as stated by Atag. So warranty valid. I was just looking for a solution so the Mrs can get off to work happy in the morning:cool:. Thanks for the input...

Hi, would be grateful if you can help on this one. We had this boiler installed 3 and a half years ago, no issues with it until today. Error code c1 29, fan. After reset the fan comes into operation for about 30 seconds then stops and the error code reappears. Obviously no heating or hot water...

You guys are kind of convincing me to head full on with the bathroom crack! I do a few in between other bits and bobs but hearing you lot I am seriously thinking going full steam :rolleyes: ahead and start advertising as a bathroom fitter. To be honest , believe it or not, i've been ticking...

Around 40k net, Fireman, any more would be great. That said I hear of gas men on 80-90k and to be honest most of the ones I get in are vat registered. I don't want to be away from home all hours though.

Yeah, well I'm 50 so will definitely get someone to do the donkey work...sooner or later

I have worked with gas engineers, installed boilers, fault finding, replacing heat exchangers, sensors and bits. Converted primatic tanked single pipe system into twin pipe in my own house and fit Atag combi, gas engineer just came and connected and commissioned it. So know a bit about the job...

Ok Dan, what's the best thing to do in your opinion? Is gas the way? I can choose another trade, spark?

Gas training? Hi, I've been self-employed for the past 12 years or so fitting bathrooms/kitchens with the relevant plumbing tiling building work involved, also worked on central heating systems, moving and replacing rads, filters etc. Plus lots of other "odd jobs" for customers. Now i'm thinking...

Adam, did what you suggested, worked a treat! Thanks for that and thanks to everyone else for their input, much appreciated!

Yes i'll do that, thanks.

Great thanks, yes it is 2 twin and earth (4 red cables + 2 earth, so no issue with the colours). To clarify...this spare would become the neutral?

Thanks Sparkwright, that's really helpful. I will just do which ever is easiest- either neutral to light or to switch (well not connected to switch, but as you said to the light neutral with 5amp block)(y)

HI, i've had a good look through the lighting and switch diagrams in wiki etc and forum but I would just like to check something with you guys in the know. I am adding an external light (bulkhead) just outside kitchen door. At the side of the door is currently a 2 gang switch, one switch for...

Hi. Did you find out what the fault was? I have the same problem with the same boiler.

Just to clarify, RSJ new position is here in red. Builder thinks it will be fine and I can see his point but he is happy to change the timber for concrete lintel if i'm worried overly about it..
