Hi i have fitted a thermostatic shower but my combination boiler doesn't allow enough hot water pressure and flow. Can anyone make any suggestions? I've thought about fitting a pressure restricting valve to the cold line, or purchasing a water heater, to supply the shower. Would this be an...

This is being discussed on the sparky forum and thought I'd give you heads up here too.
9% increase on gas and elec
9% increase on fuel coming soon.
Is there a way to depend on the fuel companies less? Because we really need to start campaigning for it sooner rather than later.
30kw combi is rated at around 12lpm of hot water. However this is honly for a 30deg rise. So if incoming is 10deg, outgoing is only slightly warm at 40deg.
If flow is reduced then water gets hot, the boiler then modulates to the temp selected (max 65deg happrox). Does anyone here use flow...

Hi
New to the forum and I have a problem... There is zero pressure on a Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30Si. I'm a novice at these sort of things but I found a video on Youtube that demonstrated how to fill the system with the white plastic key. Gave it a go, the key fitted in fine, but turning it...

Hi guys
Am just after a bit of help. What i want to know is, is there any point in converting the 15mm cold main into 22mm and running it to a 24kw boiler into 15mm then off to the toilet, shower and basin in 22mm also.
And then, coming out of the hot in 15mm and converting up to 22 mm for...
Has anyone got any experiance in getting a gas meter increased in size?
I'm pricing for a new heating system. Its a domestic property with an existing U6 meter but will have about 75kw about 7m3/hr of gas being used. Also would this then come under commercial gas ticket?

Hi - 6 months ago I moved into my property fitted with a Worcester Heatslave 15/19 boiler, fed by kerosene. The boiler's water pressure gauge has always shown 0.4 Bar, which I believe is too low? Previously I've had a couple of combi-boilers and simply put the plastic key in, rotated 90...

Hi all
About three weeks ago I posted about a problem with my Halstead Finest. The pressure was gradually increasing for no apparent reason. I concluded that there were only two possible culprits either the filler tap (hose still in place) or the DHW heat exchanger which I replaced about...

Hi all,
This might be really obvious but would appreciate your thoughts. Over the last few weeks I have noticed an increase in pressure on the primary circuit of my Halstead Finest. Reset a week ago and still increasing about half bar/week. I'm assuming that the likely candidate is the filler...

First time post from a newbie. I have a toilet with a Polypipe Hideaway cistern: the flush mechanism works fine but only drains about half the water from the cistern before stopping to fill up. This does not get the job done. How do I get it to empty the entire contents of the cistern into the...
