vessel

I have an oil-fired pressurised central heating system and have at last identified a leak under our concrete shower room floor, which has been repaired. Before this problem was solved, I was losing pressure during the day. Now I find that the heating works fine during the day with no loss of...

Hello, I've just had a plumber out to fix a constantly leaking tundish (range tribune unvented) which has started to leak outside my house. Now, I know nothing about plumbing so I aren't sure whether he has ripped me off or not. Basically, he thought he immediately knew what the...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and at the moment I can't find an answer to a problem I have. I fit a lot of unvented cylinders for a loft conversion company (I'm G3 competent) as very often they need to see the storage tanks gone from the loft. The question for you lot is "is it acceptable...

Hello all, I need some advice please? I shut the gate valve next to the UV cylinder and drained down the tribume premier unvented system and replaced the faulty 18 litre expansion vessel ( white ) with an identical one ( generic red ) and opened up the gate valve and now have no water coming...

Hi, I have a Potterton 24 he eco boiler and have noticed the pressure getting quite high when the heating is on. When cold the pressure is set 1 bar. When the heating is on it rises to around 2.5 - 3 bar. When the hot water is on it goes to 1.5 bar. It is quite possible it has...

BAXI 105e - 10 years old Hi, all. First post so apologies if its in wrong place or well covered. After two days of searching forums I'm confused. Water appears to leak from somewhere around the bottom of the EV when central heating is switched on. It only starts leaking when the water temp...

Hi all.. I've been asked to look at a large heating system - 30+ rads 20 rooms 4 inch CS pipe from boiler ! so i've been looking round the house with the new owners looking for a "fill point" and more to the point a large pressure vessel which there wasn't one apparent ? Am i looking for...

We have a warmflow boiler, since having the UFH installed, ( approx 36 sq mtrs in floor area ), we have noticed the pressure of the boiler dropping, but when it's topped up to about 1.5 bar and the heating system switched on it goes quite high and sometimes starts venting out the relief valve...

I might be fitting a logic+ 18kw system boiler in a town house with newish single panel rads. I was told years ago that system boilers etc with internal expansion tank are sized correctly for their output kw. Anyone have a technique for getting this right. I seem to remember calculating...

Hi guys, I'm working on a combi that every time you put the hot water tap on and then switch it off again it keeps on burning, the temperature keeps on rising and makes a lot of air bubbling noses. The expansion vessel also has been dropping so I'm guessing that need re pressurising or a new...

Hi, Before I start excuse my ignorace in all matters relating to plumbing, I shall try and explain what the issue is. I have a tribune unvented water cylinder with an expansion vessel (13 litres i think). The steel clamp (hose clamp) has snapped and the vessel has come crashing to the...

Hello Everyone, This has been happening for time now, well, since i bought the flat which was back last month. When ever the cylinder is fired, after around 10mins of boiling, the tun dish frequently drops water in a flow not drops, then later stops. After which, there is no further hot...
