I try to carry most common spares on the van and had to change a flow sx on a Firebird Combi 90 today. Looks like the old Mk1s are hard to get so its £42 for the upgrade kit or....I just stuck a £27 Grant one on. Exactly the same!! Out of interest I then looked at the Worcester (Boulter) one I...

Hi all,
I recently fitted a pump to boost the shower pressure in the house. The plumbing is all flexible pipe and all cold feeds are fed off the same 22mm ring. Taps, toilets, showers and bath, both upstairs and down. Don't know if this is normal, but it is normal in Donegal, North West Ireland...

Seem to have been to a few that have split along the 'seam' of the plastic spraying water inside the casing, when the water is shut off the crack closes up and you can barely see it. Any one else come across this ?
Hi,
I have recently moved and the flat is heated by storage heaters and the water tank is an immersion heater. I'm not sure I understand exactly how it works because there are 2 switches both at the bottom of the heater and they both read exactly the same thing. We don't have any instructions...
Hi

Hi I got called to a vokera combi boiler the other day where it had turned off after heating up the house and would not come back on again. So I turned it off at the plug, turned it on again and it all worked fine. So, I said if it ever cuts out again just do this. Well I have just had a call...

i have a glow worm 50ff boiler that supplies the heating and hot water. I noticed earlier that the boiler had switched off before the room temperature was high enough to trip the room thermostat.
Then after a while the boiler switched on for a few seconds and then off again.

Hi all.
My thorn floor standing boiler has started to shut itself down.
