Hi
I'm having issues with my wireless Honeywell thermostat. It's sat in the living room, set at 18C currently. It makes my Worcester Greenstar 18Ri to short cycle. So, the moment it gets cold outside my boiler works for about a minute, then stops, and starts again in about 5 minutes, then...
I have a Grant Vortex Blue 26kw external oil boiler, installed less than 12 months ago. It's had intermittent non-starting problems resulting in multiple warranty visits, part replacements and eventually burner replacement. The replaced burner I discovered was a 'yellow flame' one, apparently...
Grudfos do a unit called Sololift WC3 that has a recessed front that suggests it might fit behind better but as I cannot get to speak to anyone at Grundfos other than an automated messaging system, I cannot confirm this.
So my question is, have any plumbers on the forum had issues fitting...

Hi - planning a bathroom renovation - I've been overwhelmed by the amount of wetwall types (acrylic, plastic, laminated mdf) and from hundreds of manufacturers. Could any of you pro's give me your opinion on which manufacturers and which type is the best to use. Much appreciated - John.
I don't work now due to being ancient. I looked at a 'Range cooker' fired on kero. It had a slow leak that turned into a bad leak in a month!
It had a welded fabricated boiler. I've seen such heat exchangers leak within 7 years from new. No wonder the Potterton heating production manager said...

Hi all - this is my first post on here and I'm hopeful I can get some much needed advice from all the experts :) Please excuse my ignorance in advance!
I'm having a 5m2 porch built at the front of my house and also a ground floor side extension which will create roughly 32m2 of internal floor...
Having a load of work done at the moment, part of which is to have wet UFH installed, just looking for any thoughts around the best system to use.
There seems to be lots of choice, looking for 3/4 zone system.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
Can I jump in here rather than starting a new thread about the same thing? We were about to start getting quotes for a new combi (just moved into a house with a 10 yr old Vokera) and it's now packed up on us. Heat exchanger is bust so we're topping it up every 3 hrs.
Anyway. Quotes and boilers...
