  1. corrosion, but it pretty much wipes off. Suspect their flap wheel has some mild steel residue on it as only refinished surfaces show it...
  2. It's a disappointing situation for sure, but I'm confident that they want it back for good reason. I'd be pushing for a swapout if they *are* needing to sit in front of the unit for diagnostic or research purposes.
  3. and remember we do check reveals over here like Scotland so make sure you're sizing the right skin.
  4. where are you living now/ what's it worth?
  5. has the ambient temperature changed? Was the first measurement taken on a sunny day? Pressure will fluctuate with temperature regardless of heat source
  6. A detached boiler house would be a building but I'm not sure a galvi box would apply. Personally I'd fit one, before the filter and any flexihoses. You could always ask your friendly local OFTEC bod at a pinch...
  7. Ignore it til you finish the bathroom?
  8. a set of pallet forks for the digger?
  9. ^yep to all of that. This new display has been in the works for well over a year now, I've been waiting to hear more about it. Have they got the energy stats running on it?
  10. Thank you. /this must be the only occasion I've ever seen a member of Buildhub royalty state NOT to follow MIs but hey, we all gotta live eh?
  11. ok, so back to data and not anecdotes... What's the failure mode- olive eating into the pipe? Numpties not using an insert?
  12. can you not just set a DHW schedule with a dip or setback temperature in the morning?
  13. does the valve rotor fit in 180deg out? is there a seal or is it metal-metal? can you see a pipe rising inside the tank as a vent? No chance it's actually a tank drain?
  14. why? Data please...
  15. that's a real oddity dave, never seen anything like it. I'll make some enquiries for you...
  16. I think you'll be in trouble trying to get a like-for-like Dave, but if the spacing between the retaining bolts is 34mm there's taps used on some Honda bikes that might be worth a look depending on the shape of the hole: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/173679727124 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172855366598
  17. didn't you get enough advice on the other forum?
  18. or one of the malleable plastic putties like Sugru
  19. nail gun? what kind of nails?
  20. we've got about the same length to the kitchen tap in 10mm here and I can assure you ther's plenty of flow.
  21. we've just sealed ours (gypsum hemihydrate) with an acrylic primer to keep the dust down
  22. ^ I've the green version of the rotary above and it's very good.
  23. if it's not a stoopid question, why were these windows and doors replaced?
  24. graphite EPS is no dearer than normal and substantially better-performing so don't rule it out...
  25. stepper is a good call, I'd never have though to go that direction, lol
