  • Rising boiler pressure

    When my heating is on the pressure in my Valiant boiler rises to just over 2 Bar from just over 1. Is this normal? The boiler also occasionally cuts out when the heating is on. Is this normal or a simple repair or will it need new parts? Thanks.

    Does a gas hob need to be fitted by a Gas Safe registered engineer?

    Hello all I am in the process of kitchen renovations at the moment and will need a new gas hob to be installed. I had thought his would be a task only a Gas Safe registered engineer would be able to do legally, however the builder involved in my renovation work tells me that it is a simple change of disconnecting the old hob and reconnecting to the new, so it would be too minor to need a specialist and that he could do it himself. Is this the case, or am I having the wool pulled over my eyes? I’d like to hear from the horse’s mouth on this, from actual engineers.

    Boiler Heat Exchanger - fix or replace

    I have a fourteen-year-old Worcester boiler that is leaking a bit. This has been diagnosed as a fault with the heat exchanger. The boiler is still working. So, is it better to repair with a new heat exchanger or replace the boiler? Can someone give a rough estimate of the relative cost differential?

    Boiler not heating

    The u-bend beneath the kitchen sink is leaking. Now I’ve found the boiler isn’t heating. Could the leak in the u-bend have caused my boiler to lose pressure? The boiler is nearby in the kitchen.
