What boiler?

 

[Suzan]

Glow worm? Something like that.

If Its mates rates make sure he registers the boiler and notifies gas safe. If your selling soon you'll need the relevant docs incase the buyers solicitor picks up on it.

 

[Suzan]

Yep my OH confirmed with him that we'll get the certs on the day and notifies gas Safe so all good.

If the new boiler is done correctly. You will thank me in the end.

Well you can clearly see the heat ex has rippled so either the system is badly sludged up or your system pump is running slow/seized and the system was getting warm from gravity circulation. I wonder, did the installer actually wire the pump into the boiler to handle the overrun and that’s whats goosed the hex

Out of interest, have you got his warning notice. Love to read what it says
