  1. is the dyno figure quoted at the wheels... seriously miss my old soop, may well be interested,
  2. well done on the co alarm, just food for thought though. BG sell battery co alarms with a 6 year life and they are designed such that you cant replace the battery, reason being is that the CO sensor only has a limited life, so if your gona replace the batteries all the time your sensors life will gradually get worse. wondering if this would apply to mains powered.
  3. yep thats the killer kiddy, these boilers are whats called positive pressure jobbies where the waste products (CO) are pushed into the boiler case before going out through the flue. So what happens is where the pipes run behind the boiler and connect to the heat exchanger through the back plate, its there that they can corrode and then the fumes are forced out through this. Certainly this year there have been 2 or 3 fatalities due to this and these boilers (im an engineer at british gas FYI) When you get it serviced, make sure the engineer removes the case to check the above, also what we do at BG is do a test for background CO in the room with the boiler off and then again with it on, and then also with the probe 100mm above the boiler. aswell as the usual other tests.
  4. do you have the neataheat profile, or plain old neataheat with the brown slide off bottom (not biege) if the latter they are killers, many many CO deaths due to these. If you need yoru systme flushed give me a shout as ive got a flushing machine and can also lay my hands on brand new magnacleans (inline magnetic filters) pretty cheap for cash ;-)
