Days of trade only are disappearing fast PJ and most trade counters will deal with anyone with a fist full of cash.

Not yet, but they just got hunters in Slough to start selling the hkc gear it's on there website for trade only no pricing 

 

Problem around this area is the £300 brigade will buy it and sell onto the public, total lunatics working for a cheap day rate 

 

Maybe just maybe, if they sell enough to trade they won't go with Joe public

Nice work Gaz, would have been a few bob to get someone in. I had 3 heating engineers look at my  Baxi it was only 5 years old but was working intermittently , one didn’t want to do it, one didn’t know what was wrong and the last wanted to replace the pcb.

 

i had a little look about and found the fan pressure switch was so high res it was taking 240 in and about 160 out, got the part and swapped it (£20) and was perfect after.

I wonder how they make their money?

It's a basic boiler tbf she has had heating co,s look at it before,but my old man installed it and as his forte was bms it's all the zone valves ,flow/return and circ pumps that pull hot water from different areas to heat another area all controlled by a panel he built and they haven't a clue how it works they just want to diss it all and start again,my old mam says there's a drawing he made before he passed on but no one can find it,one day I might suss out how it all works 

i had a problem with my old Apollo boiler again rang around they didn't want to know as its 25 yr old managed to find some Young British Gas lad who works on them all the time and it turned out it was a pilot direction tip onto the thermocouple replaced for around £10
