Vaillant ecoTEC Plus 400 15kW Heat Only Boiler
I've got air in the pump and one gas engineer has said I need to move the pipes as they are configured incorrectly. Another said all I need to do is add an AAV as high as possible. Another said I should seal the system. Boiler was installed in...

Hi I’ve got a couple of gas safety checks coming up and I’m a bit confused as to whether I need to tick yes or no to the appliance serviced part? Does a landlord cert count as a service or does this mean has the appliance been serviced within the past year? Many thanks

Gas safe registered but not for LPG. Have been asked to quote for a number of LPG boilers so if I get the job will do my LPG ticket. But was wondering if pipe sizing is different for LPG than natural gas.

2 years ago I installed a Baxi 836 and every year the owners complain about the water temperature. Last year I couldn't find anything wrong but this year there's definitely a low-temperature hot water output.
Although this is usually a warranty claim I'm having difficulty with this as I messed...
Hi apologies of this has been asked before but when you gas rate an appliance and trying to compare to the technical data, do you go off the Domestic hot water input as that’s a higher figure than the central heating max? Thanks

Hi, I’m changing my kitchen and swapping from a gas hob to an electric induction hob.
Rest assured, I have no intention of doing any work at all on the gas supply, I just have a question.
Assuming we might want to go back to gas at some point in the future, it may be worth leaving an easy...
My renewal is over £500 for £2,000,000 cover. Domestic plumbing, heating and gas. Nothing unusual or nitch. Never made a claim, excess £1000. 20yrs with same insurer does this sound about right? How much should i be paying, current quoter originally recommended by institute of plumbing. Cheers.
