Mvhr funny noises and dripping

Small leak from front again ffs ! Stuck a bucket under the right plug - fair bit of water came out . Guess I’ll need to empty it daily until second trap turns up … -

Yep . I’ve ordered a much cheaper waterless flexible trap and will have double drains . -
FFS new doorbell lost pair with chime and won't repair! Grrrrrr

No blockage for me -
Yeah - I’ve been seeing that . Early next year now I reckon

Agree. Others are playing catchup to Bambu. BUT! as my very 1st 3d printer it seemed to whip the floor of all the others in ( for me ) ease of use. I just want to print not fanny around plate levelling etc etc etc. Printing stuff not setting it up. No 3d printer is perfect and of course I get bad prints for a variety of reasons.

35+10 ( postage ) for another comparable valve! - rip off! Tempted to swap this syphon trap to the side where the water seems to pool and stick a bottle trap on the other and link them together. That seem ok?? -

The current Hepvo goes straight into a discharge pipe and outside ( not into drain ) . Think I’ll just install another water less trap on the other outlet and connect them together . -

No water out of front . But some still pooling in right side where there’s no drain . Think I’ll have to do the double drain bodge -
Bambu is best - even entry level .

What confuses me is you can configure left or right - but how does the water know which side to run too ! ? 🤣 -

I’ll let it run for tonight and see . When I did take the heat exchanger out it did have a surprisingly large amount of water in it . -

I managed to pack it off the wall at the base . So it tips a bit more backwards . At this point in time as it’s run flawlessly for 4 yrs - I can only assume it’s moved slightly causing water to pool forwards and to the right ( bit with no drain ) . Or maybe dirt/ dust in the heat exchanger changing water flow direction ??? . How best clean that ? . Just sit in the bath and run hot water and detergent through it ?? All back together now . Want too see that water out the front has been solved . Then it’s in the lap of the gods if it flows left ( hurrah ) or right ( boo ) -
My view and experience is the opposite . We have ufh in the bathroom . I was worried it wouldn’t be enough to hear the space so added an electric towel rail . Towel rail has never been put on . Ufh in the bathroom ( as such a relatively small room ) heats from ufh no issue . I have ufh in bedrooms . Because someone ( I.e SWMBO ) will always want it warmer !

Stuck a small spirit level inside it as best I could . Assume really I want it to be slightly tilted back so water runs away from the front and to the left where my drain is . Seems to be the opposite in both axis !! -

Notice felt guide on one side bent . Other side fell off . Ct1 that side back on ? Is this enough to cause water to run forwards ? -

So it’s dripping again from the front . Opened both valve caps empty of water . So the heat exchanger I assume . Do I clean it ? Just rinse water through it ?? -

Condensation is as you say on the exhaust pipes ( to atmosphere ) . So as expected . I’ve never removed the heat exchanger unit now so *assume* it’s in the right way round ! . How can I tell ? I think it would fit in either way which sounds like bad design imho . Heat exchanger is a snug fit so no chance of sitting incorrectly. -
I’m actually shitting in the woods thanks

Well ! vent axis instructions insist on ONE drain . Apparently according to them - 2 drains can conflict and cause vacuum on the other . So drain on left side as instructions dictate . Water on right - as there is no drain . I want to know why vent axia don’t mention this …. I simply can’t be the only person ever to experience this . -

No no no - you over complicate that massively ! So you have home automation running a tpu . Cctv ip camera linked to tpu .You can then identify if a person . Tpu then triggers a zigbee relay . Zigbee relay turns on light . Easy peasy until it (expletive deleted)s up of course ! . Then you can have any type of light .

Poor vent axia ! . The ‘technical’ guy is obsessed that as I don’t have a Hepvo valve this is the issue . I’ve tried explaining multiple times that the water is in a section with no valve . He clearly doesn’t get it !
