    I'm An Engineer......................

    ..............I've come on here for advice but I probably will ignore it as I know what I'm doing and it will work. http://www.ukplumbersforums.co.uk/central-heating-forum/45595-diy-project-zone-my-house-3.html#post409590 A humble apology to the lads I told to get off his back. :)

    DIY Project To Zone My House

    Sorry Richard but that's a recipe for disaster, it's entirely the wrong attitude. Everybody has limitations, it's knowing them that's the key and keeping you out of trouble. Good luck, I'm out.

    DIY Project To Zone My House

    Lads, lets give the guy a break. He's come on for advice, once he has the details of what's involved then it is for him to decide on wether he believes he has the skills to complete or bring in the pro.

    Or the programmable TRV's, don't know a lot about it but read a little in the John Guest paperwork I read through recently.

    DIY Project To Zone My House

    Plenty of pictures and plenty of questions and then take it from there. If you get in touch with one of the mods BOD, Croppie, Gas Man, System3 or Steveb (hope I haven't missed anybody :) ) they can edit the title for you.

    DIY Project To Zone My House

    Welcome to the forum Richard, the only comment I can give is that in my experience it's not a diy project, it's a job for a pro. But good luck in your endeavours.

    Pump to improve hot water pressure

    If you're changing boiler next summer then live with it. Whats the point of spending on a pump that you could be getting rid of in 6 months. You probably want a better plumber for the boiler change than the bathroom change tho.

    Domestic Hot Water Temp

    Do you mean out the taps FC? If so it's a personal thing, the wife likes to come out the bath as red as a lobster, where I prefer it cooler.

    Help with an unvented water cylinder please!!!

    Here's some good advice, repeated from earlier posts, get a G3 qualified engineer to fix it for you. Your analogy with regard to cars does not hold water. It's not illegal to work on cars, it is illegal to work on unvented cylinders without the necessary qualification. You won't get any other...

    £49 Oil Boiler Service.

    Bloke in our local paper offering full service inc. nozzle for 49.99. Not oftec but 'trained' by well known manufacturer. Only trouble is that he can't repair them. He serviced a boiler and then it wouldn't run. I had to go in and fix it. Very expensive. Made my day though.
