Hi there
I have a Baxi Bermuda C5 fire with back boiler and want to replace the gas fire only with a more modern one but leave the back boiler in place, what are my options please?
Regards
Hoping someone can give me advice with this one. At an annual gas service today I found a Worcester Greenstar Junior 28i to be using only running at around 12kW on high when carrying out the gas rate. The CO readings were where they should be, fan speed was okay and inlet working pressure was...
Looking for some detail on the possibility of replacing a Heat Only Boiler for a Combi boiler in a Conservatory. I can't find too much information on regs etc. Only thing i keep seeing is about a separate Stat/Zone for any Rads in the Conservatory. Thanks

Hi team,
We just moved into a new property that has a gas stove where once there was a fireplace. The chimney is still there so we would like to remove the gas stove and put there a real fireplace. From what I can see, there's a metal tube that goes from my gas meter into this stove. Do I need...
Hi Guys
Just wanted to pick your brains on this one. (I'm g3)

Hello everyone.
The flue from my glowworm CXi boiler sticks out the side wall of our house in front of the kitchen window. It's around a metre away so isn't a safety issue, but it's a bit annoying all the same as it's directly in the line of sight.
A bit of research suggests that a 'plume...

Good evening,
I had a cp12 carried out today on a vaillant combi.
The working pressure at the valve was 12.5mb and the engineer said minimum was 13mb on this boiler. All other test were ok, but he Ar'd it and asked me to turn it off. Is this correct as other test were fine (combustion and gas...
