On a glance I thought Vokera......

On a glance I thought Vokera......

Untill you look at the logo on the control knob

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

thats wider than a classic though ????

 

[gasmanrob]

Not the old NF think that was a wider unit

 

[boilerbrigade]

You lot are on it this evening, it's an ideal classic not seen one of these for a long time, well before my time, I thought it should have had a panel covering the gubbings though, any ideas? Looks good as new with a lick of paint!

I took out a flamingo 2 today - from a solid stone wall - let's spare a minute to remember the poor man who had to cut that 10" square out of a solid stone wall, and my lad moans about core drilling!

They cover has gone for a walk!

If memory serves me correctly isn't that the balanced flue model? They were larger than the newr fan flued!

I'm gonna have to see if I can find something obscure this week

My young lad moans if he's gotta take a shower.

Wasn't that the Sprint?...regards Turnpin:confused5:

Right you lucky lot, it time for your Monday night quiz!

Complaint was that hot water pressure was rubbish as was cold everywhere except the kitchen sink... Can anyone guess what it is? Apart from an unvented cylinder.... And yes that is a stopcock on the hot water draw off!

 

[stevetheplumber]

filter blocked

 

[boilerbrigade]

No surprisingly, was ok problem was the cold inlet valve did not let much by, jammed or something but can anyone guess the product? I thought it was a dodgy install with no expansion vessel etc etc but according to MI it's just fine...

 

[stevetheplumber]

oso or thats what it looks like

 

[bigads28]

I was gonna say oso too.

 

[boilerbrigade]

Yeah that's it, funny little thing it is odd set up too as no external immersions or thermostats. It also has huge great rust patch on the top of the cylinder defo a Friday afternoon job, who puts a stopcock on a hot water draw off?
