    Intermittent Overheat lockout on a Worcester Heatslave 25/32 circa 2007

    hi I have an intermittent overheat issue (every 5-10 days) with a Worcester Heatslave 25/32.

    Solar for a pool

    Renewable Heat Incentive

    Hi Unguided, You only have to look at the strongest lobby groups within our industry to know why the MCS is as hard to crack as it is. Big players Like BG etc stitch it up because they want to charge thier high prices without competing with people like us. They thought that they were on a...

    MCS Accreditation

    Can anyone tell me if there are any alternative routes to getting an installation registered? I put in an (Ideal!) ASHP with Uponor underfloor heating at the back end of last year on a renovation but I am not registered with MCS. RHI was all a bit up in the air at the time, and the customer was...
