    Hi, I have this receiver in the loft next to the boiler. Do I just remove it if i am fitting Hive? The new receiver is going in place of the exisiting programmer. The hub etc all seems straight forward just having a receiver in place at the minute is throwing me off. Any tips? Thanks

    Hi, A customer has sent me a picture of a gainsborough 8.5 es shower. It no longer gets hot, after speaking to the manufacturers they have said its only 1 of 2 issues. Either the water pressure is below 1bar so not activating the solenoid - unlikely. Or the 'engine' has gone which to replace...
