Unbelievably my system hasn't stopped working since last time i repressurised it about 5 days ago now. Being forced to study my system now, I do note that many times the hot water is only warm, more often than before but, despite even colder weather (working harder) its not needed looking at...

Hi Eric. Thanks for that nicely detailed explanation. Fact is that SOMETIMES the hot water is luke warm depending, I have found, on whether the CH system is calling for heat. I suspected the diverter valve but as it only happens at certain times, I would live with that. I didn't figure that...

When i re-pressurised the expansion vessel there was no water but I am told that if it is just a pinhole that the small leak can evaporate before it shows. The PRV is definitely letting past until the pressure drop is very low but that can take two days.

I am in Essex. Not sure but i think its a hard area.

Presently lasting almost two days before boiler cuts out and needs topping up. No softener unit fitted.

If I leave the old one in place do i need to do anything with it or just pretend it isn't there? It is internal and easy enough to get to but like you say - double the price.

Hi All. Apologies in advance for the lengthy story. Like most of us, I like a problem and the satisfaction of solving it and felt capable of doing so as I have had some plumbing experience (Pre Corgi) and have, in fact fitted a complete system around 20 yrs ago (Tho my mate, Bill the Plumber...

Just for anyone info. The company that supply these saws is Marshall & Parsons. They are, and have always been, a well respected company locally. I have used them many times and found that they know what they are talking about and are very helpful and professional. Hope this might put some...

Thanks for the replies so far, chaps.:)

Hi All. O.k. I have built a couple of sheds before but now I am going to build, not ONE but TWO workshops. One for rebuilding a Scimitar SS1 & t'other for woodwork. They will both be 15ft x 12ft with four courses of bricks at the bottom. The first will have a 7ft opening front 7ft rear...

O.k. would have bought a cheapie if not for the advice given here so gone middle road and bought the Ryobi. Thanks you lot, you just cost me another nifty.:)

I guess most of you will know but it has a useful addition, built in, and that is the ability to use it as a conventional screwdriver. VERY useful for overtight screws or for giving them a final 'Tweak'.

Thanks for the comments, so far chaps. Just what I was suspecting, I guess. Why can they NOT get a saw to be accurate without paying large amounts of hard-earned? Ryobi seem good VFM but I heard that they weren't too accurate either, I was also told that only the Dewalt 712 is worth considering.

Hi, Does anyone have an opinion on these saws? Mac (about £150) is from B&Q and the Erbauer (About £135) is Screwfix. (The newer one, not the clearance one.) just wondered if any of you fine guys have any experience of either or if you have checked 'em out, what is your opinion? The Mac is...
