Hi,
I recently replaced my boiler (combi) and all my rads.
All the rads were fitted with a TRV except the heated towel rail in the bathroom.
When I turned the heating on all the rads were heating up to very hot quite quickly, apart from the two doubles which only heated to warm and then...
Rate lads, I need a quick question answering if you would do me the honour.
I have a boiler.
Boiler has a plastic pipe coming out of it. Water drips out of it. Usually when it's on. Water seems cold.
I'm assuming this is just catching condensation or something from inside the boiler or...
Hi.
I don't have enough post's to allow me to sell stuff.

Hi
I wonder if somebody with experience of this problem could help me to find a solution to this annoying nuisance.

The outside tap at the back of the house has stopped working. Only a trickle of water emerges.
However I can force water back from the tap to the kitchen at the front of the house (and where the water main arrives).

Then I literally stabbed myself in the hand with a bradle. Went in about half an inch.
