I've had a few quotes on getting my back boiler replaced with a combi and have a good quote on a Vaillant Pro 28 or Plus 831, but the price difference between the two is almost £400 - looking around on the web I've noticed the Plus 831 sells for less than £200 more than the Pro 28 so I'm not...

Got a call today about the above not filling up via filling loop. My mate has removing the filling loop from the boiler side to make sure there is mains water at that point, seems good there. Then removed the non-return valve, re-connected it to the filling loop & all was good. But when it's all...

Yesterday - installing new en suite in a 15th century farmhouse. Saniflo pipe work routed through loft space avoiding old beams etc. Hundreds of years of dust and soot. The roof space was home to a colony of feral cats for many years. Lots of obstacles including disused water tanks and tiny...

Hi folks Hmm, seem to have made matters worse! Got a new toilet from BnQ. Plumbed in fine, no probs other than it didn't seem to re-fill very high, seemed to flush without much power so to speak and wife grumbled a lot!! Inside there's the 'filling tower' as I'll call it and the bit which...

Hi Friends Been away for a while, returned home to a small issue. Not really bothering me, well, it is but nothing major, no loss of life! My toilet, been in for about 8 years, all good, seems to be filling sporadically. MMMM.... after flush, it fills, but then I can hear it fill a little...

Going to look at a problem with the above boiler tomorrow & just wanted to ask if anyone had experienced similar problems with the same back boiler. It is on a modern Y plan & seems to work ok when on hot water but when the heating is on it seems to be boiling over after around 2 hrs of...

Had a callout today for an unvented cylinder, was leaking from the pipe on the top but it seems to be blanked off from factory? have never come across one of these types before and why was it leaking? I wont be going back to complete job as my unvented has expired, I just turned off stopcock...

Hi. My gas boiler seems to use a lot of electricity! Is this normal. My electric meter flashes every 2 seconds when the boiler is in use so it seems I'm getting a double spank. The boiler is very old but I'm not sure if that's the/a reason? Any thoughts? Cheers

A few months ago we had our Baxi combi 133 HE Plus moved and since then I've had to bleed the rads in the loft conversion a couple of times and then top up the pressure in the system. All seemed to be fine and making sense. The other night I noticed the system pressure very low (in the red) and...

I replaced an oil boiler 18 months ago and at a recent service it was over 98% efficiency so well pleased. System is sealed at 1 bar. Recently I had a huge pressure drop located to a leaking joint at a radiator - water loss went down a redundant under floor heating duct so was not at all...

Apologies if this has been asked before, I did try a search. We have juts moved into a house that has a Baxi 100E gas fired boiler feeding the central heating and hot water cylinder. The hot water is always far to hot, dangerously so. I have checked the valves and these seem to correctly...
