    Expansion vessel???

    Got a customer with a 6-7 year old Glow worm 35ci combi. When heating's on, pressure jumps and prv operates so I assumed it was the expansion vessel. Pressed the schrader valve and no water came out, pressure around 0.5 bar as per M.I's. Can only assume the inlet to the E.V. is blocked or could...

    Commercial or not?

    Been to look at a job to run a couple of metres of pipe to connect a cooker in a pub kitchen. The meter is a U16 but the I.V. doesn't exceed 0.035 cu.m. Would this be classed as commercial cos of the size of the meter or does it all come down to the I.V. only?

    Refurbing gas valves

    Anyone know of any companies that take old or obsolete gas valves and refurbish em? Wouldn't be a bad idea for a business - pay a tenner for the old valves, refurb & test em and sell em at a discount.

    Ancient gas fire/BBU

    Have a customer with a New World Stowaway gas fire and BBU. BG fitted em a new combi and decomissioned the old fire and BBU. The customer now wants the fire reinstating.

    Ideal logic + fga test point

    What is this all about?! None of the probes fit in this ridiculous little orifice! Just fitted one of these boilers for a builder and luckily I could get me probe in the flue (ooer missus!) from outside but what's a boy to do if the terminal is out of reach? (Got Kane 455 cpa1 kit by the way)

    Obsolete burner

    Just done a service on a Glow Worm 85-100 B/F Boiler (approx 32 years old!) and it would appear it hasn't been touched for a few years. Flame picture all yellow & floppy etc so serviced to M.I. (got half a bucket of crap out of it!) all cleaned up but both burners got hairline cracks in em...
