2.jpg1.jpgstuck right in the eaves pipes all run across in front of the boiler so you cant get in front of it to work as far as i can make out there is no low water pressure switch on boiler so not a good ide for top of the house you have to unscrew a panel just to get in lagged pipe work but not the fittings and theres a filter tucked in the pipe work with the flush out valve about an inch above the ceiling pipework is copper with plastic fittings can only get one hand over to the airvents and you cant unscrew them as they are into pushfit and just spin one handed so cant tell if they are open or shut
three years old was moved up from the cupboard below any guesses whose work it is and how much they charged?
 
rubbish

diy/non gas safe and 1k
 
There is such little space left in London, are boilers getting shoved into crawlspaces now with all the spiders?
 
Put a leaky ballofix valve in incase the the Aav leaks? I've been missing a trick all these years!

you can buy quality ones that dont leak,i also fit full bores to motorised valves,i will often be the one changing them
 
shaun,like me clearly does maintenance,build in a easy fix

you always need to think ahead, and how can i make this easier to either me or the next guy to change / fix
 
Not when you can swap them live!

swap them live with 70 dc water coming at you (mind you most dom places dont have auto fillers ;) , least once the pressures gone the water stops)
 
half a point for hammers yes bg fitted it 5k plus vat and the aavs have the auto shut offs under them you just have to lay on the unsupported pipework to reach them
