The Gledhills are actually quite good now as are the Santons and Oso cylinders.

I'd like to see Tony get it down from the loft on his own :lol:

Technicians for repair and installers for fitting Scruff :wink:


Certainly a lot lighter than the Classico, and I haven't worked for nearly 5 years :mrgreen: so I'll take your word for it.

Who else do we know in Sutton Coldfield, wherever that is. :scratch:

Only thing that can go wrong is if it gets worse and the black tank floods.

You could turn the stopcock off before you go to bed and it will be fine.

I assume the boiler is off for hot water mode anyway.


Ahhh I see cool.....thats gives me some peace of mind tonight!

Well it's only 40 minutes away from the guy that's just retained his BG installer of the year crown for the area :wink:

I've just priced up an OSO Super S for a job:

Plumbnation
Oso Super S SCI180 Indirect Unvented Hot Water Cylinder 180 Litre
Product Code: 106997
£671.50 (£805.80 inc VAT)

Plumbing supply services

Oso Super S 180 Ltr Ind
Price: £589.00 (£706.80 Including VAT at 20%)


Thought I'd got the price for a direct cylinder for a minute, massive difference in price :wink:

Hi Guys

Just one more quick question is it ok to run the central heating system with the mains water off to stop the leaking of water out of my overflow?

Thanks

Razor has just installed my new beast a couple of weeks ago and I'll happily vouch for his work - in fact, there are pictures on here if you want to see them!

Top bloke and works like a trooper, I would happily recommend him to anyone in the future without a seconds thought! It's not often you find someone who has such pride in their work (and he has a cool lazer thing too!) :thumbleft:

Hi everyone just wanted to say BIG thanks to scruff who helped me diagnose the problem and another BIG thanks to Razor who came out on short notice (without charging me) to get my hot water back on while I ordered my water cylinder and then coming back and completing the job for me!

If anyone is thinking about using him go for it.

Great forum with great people! :thumbright:
