  • Hard to diagnose faults with something you don't fully understand while a toddler screams at you for doing other basic things wrong.

    I concur.

    The valves were fucked on ours so the previous or their man had permanently set the heating circuit on and they were using the immersion for hot water. Control box and stat did nothing - the boiler would burn until it was powered off.

    “Oh no we’ve never had any problems with the central heating...”

    Ripped the whole lot out in week 3 - new tank, boiler, control box, Tado on the rads. New vertical flue when we do the roof in March.

  • Boiler is relatively new, in warranty and service a month ago. I asked the guy some questions about controls and he was very vague, now I see why.

    Next question. LED GU10s for the kitchen, Cool White or Daylight?

  • daylight every time. cool white + kitchen surfaces always feels like a vivarium.

  • LED GU10s for the kitchen, Cool White or Daylight?

    If you have pure white / daylight in a hood over the job, then go warmer on the remainder of the kitchen.

    If you don't have daylight over the hob, go daylight everywhere.

    The trade off is that when you're cooking you want to see the food as it is. But you don't need to see everything under that stark bright white light and in the winter a warmer tone is easier on the eyes.

  • Do you need a plumber dude?
