    No Control Over Central Heating

    Thanks for your help Vee its surprising how out of touch you get when you've been off your tools for a few years I've still got tallow, plumbers black, wiping cloth, putty rag and string in by tool kit, I am joking of course, but I remember those days like they were yesterday. However I also...

    No Control Over Central Heating

    Okay so I've had a sparks check out the programmer and room stat which are both okay which points to the motorized valve playing up. I don't know if he freed the valve up by operating it manually but the system is now working fine. However I think I'll buy a new valve as a standby. I need to...

    No Control Over Central Heating

    Yes you're right Frog I've got a sparks checking things out for me tomorrow. I'm leaning more towards a zone valve being the culprit now but we shall see.

    No Control Over Central Heating

    No Control Over Central Heating

    Thanks for your reply Riley but the way I see it no components should be active if the central heating and hot water are both programmed OFF.

    something not quite right

All day, all night, no problem, the heating responds perfectly but when it comes to around 8pm it just does not want to know. When this happens there is no supply to the...

    Shower mixer installation

    I'm fitting a shower mixer that has no means of securing it to the tile surface other than relying on the hot and cold supplies to support it. What method of fixing would you recommend?

    Replacing a 2 port valve

    I was afraid that might be the case, I will be using a freezing kit so thanks for the advice. Why manufactures go to the expense of re-tooling is beyond me.

    Replacing a 2 port valve

    Can anyone tell me if the thread size on a Honeywell 3/4 imperial valve is compatible with a 22mm valve.

    How do I stand legally

    Thanks guys for taking the time to reply, I guess the law is the law and there's no point arguing about that, but it does go against the grain when I know from experience that no matter how well qualified and no matter how many certificates someone has in some cases and I stress some cases, it...

    How do I stand legally

    For my sins over many years I have worked as a CH installer for several companies including British Gas (yes, I know that's not anything to be proud off) Anyway I am now retired and no longer hold any kind of gas safe registration. The job I would like to do is to replace the thermostat on my...
