I checked that there was no leak from both valves which connect to the filling loop would it be safe to remove it from the two valves or must that silver braid stay in place."Remove the braided hose (the U-shaped silver pipe that sits between the two valves)". When I disconnected it at first there was a little water sitting in the pipe not much but I drained it out.
Thank you I will take off the braided hose as nothing is leaking or dripping. Out of general interest what is the purpose of the braided hose, why was it in there in the first place and what's the difference when removed?
Thanks
Quarter turn anti clockwise open, (Levers in line of pipe). Quarter turn clockwise closed,(levers across line of pipe).Hi could someone tell me which is the correct way the Heating return connection and Heating flow connection should be turned according to the picture because both of these black valves are movable (they move to the right) and I want to make sure they are in the right position thanks View attachment 27951View attachment 27952
cross contamination may be due to Non Return Valve being open and the system water is mixing with the cold water going into the boiler but leaving the cold water supply uncontaminated. The NRV has been fitted the wrong way around it’s either to the cold mains or central heating feed because the NRV allows medium flow in one direction which prevents backflow in domestic water. It isn’t the boiler which is the issue but things have been put in the wrong way around by the installer is what he told me.
