heaters
A kerosene heater, also known as a paraffin heater, is typically a portable, unvented, kerosene-fueled, space (i.e., convectional) heating device. In Japan and other countries, they are a primary source of home heat. In the United States and Australia, they are a supplemental heat or a source of emergency heat during a power outage. Most kerosene heaters produce between 3.3 and 6.8 kilowatts (11,000 and 23,000 BTU/h).
Hi All, I have some storage heaters for sale. Never been used but some cosmetic damage. No bricks.

Hi everyone
I have a 20 year old Megaflo CL250 indirect hot water tank that I typically heat with an oil-fired boiler. It has locations for two immersion heaters (one at the base of the tank and the other halfway up). Only the lower immersion is installed and the other (halfway up the tank) is...
My daughter has all electric heating, however, the lower economy 7 immersion has failed (high resistance short to earth).
I received what I consider a ridiculously high quote of over £400 to drain the tank and replace both immersions (upper boost immersion is working but 8 years old so I assume...

Got a customer in a RPH after replacing a old morco OF permanent pilot LPG water heater. There after basically the same thing but with electronic ignition (battery or similar).

Hi, in a small guesthouse I have 6 water heaters with built-in heat exchanger connected to a look fed by a solar heater and a heat pump. I'm wondering how to connect these heaters to the loop. I made these three...
I'm looking to buy a house that has an old heating system:
These are in every room of a 3 bed house. I presume these are gas heaters and each of them do vent through the back of the heater through the wall to outside. They look old and pretty dangerous. How much should I expect it to cost to...
Hi
Complete novice to plumbing i'm just starting out in Risk Assesments and looking to familerise myself with unvented Immersion heaters and i just wondered if there is any easy way of identifying pipes to and from them without downloading manuals
I understand the basics such as hot water out...
I've seen and heard about this a couple of times.
When installing an un-vented water heater some parts of the world seem to fit an expansion valve and just allow it to blow off each time the water is heated.
No expansion vessel is fitted on the incoming pipe work, they either fit it to a...
Hi I have a small semi-detached and it is heated with a Baxi Baroque in the lounge (nice and hot) and a Baxi Brazillia on the staircase (OK, just takes the chill off).
My water is heated by a Main multipoint gas water heater which has worked superbly. It is probably over ten years old and is...
It seems I spend a lot of my time telling customers that their ventilation is undersized or their flue is slightly too close to a window or the access to their boiler is not acceptable etc...
Then eventually I go to service or repair a Johnson & Starley warm air heater and my idea of what's safe...
