Hi all
My wifes not interested so thought i would tell you lot about this . Got called out to a worcester 24cdi hot water problem today , was expecting diaphram etc. Customer says shower is very hot and cold runs out so that rulled out diaphram , I thought they were just not used to combi boilers as had just bought house , bad pressure etc.. Then when I was running shower , a gush of water came out of an overflow onto a flat roof below , turns out whoever fitted the boiler thought it would be a good idea to leave the cold supply to bathroom via the old cold water storage tank , result was tank emptying of cold and backfilling with hot , tank overflowing with hot water ! Capped it all off including expansion now its working like a dream . I wonder what tommorow has for lined up for me !

Tut tut. You will have our Polish contributor complaining again. I saw enough horrors before Polish plumbers ever came here to realise that we have enough comprehensively incompetent home-grown idiots of our own.

Like the time I was called to an installation where the guy had been in bed with his girlfriend and they suddenly found themselves having a cold shower through the ceiling. Just when you thought you'd got it made.......

Some clown had installed the HWC in the loft with an CH F&E-sized cold water tank for storage feeding into the top of the cylinder and with the HW takeoff from the bottom. With inevitable consequences.
