Fitting an expansion vessel

[twgas]

yes, and he would know what to get and where to get it.

Thanks for that Mick.
Now I know where I'm going and I can get on with the job.
It just goes to show how useful these forums are.

 

[twgas]

best get your corgi to check availability before starting rest of work.

 

[Panyards]

I assume it's a generic part and not boiler specific.

 

[twgas]

boiler specific. NOT generic.

 

[Panyards]

I'm already feeling the hand of obsolescence creeping over me. Is there likely to be an over temperature cut out for an Ideal mexico cf 3/80?

 

[spacethegas]

the part/parts/kit/device will be available.

 

[Panyards]

Amen to that and thanks for your help.

Does asking a question indicate incompetence?

Asking a question in itself no but you have already made it painfully obvious you have SOME of the parts so planned to go ahead WITHOUT knowing if the system is capable of being converted.

You intend carrying out the work without any knowledge of the safety inplications involved. THAT is incompetence.

That is a very fair comment and as a professional engineer, one I wouldn't argue with. That is why with my background in the nuclear power world I ask before I act. I always check, check and check again. I just have. And you came up trumps.
