As per other thread, decorating daughter's lounge in her absence. Two issues have arisen.
1) Ideal Isar HE24 boiler - heating is fine, taps only providing lukewarm water. Research suggests divertor valve may be faulty. I am reasonably competent but no expert, it looks reasoanbly easy from the diagrams here www.idealheating.com/downloads/manuals/203319_inst.pdf - should I take the risk? In my mind a) diagnosis may be faulty and 2) might run into something which blows me up.
This (and other ) threads led me to the conclusion I've reached. www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=116333
2) There was a fancy light fitting with fan in the lounge, which I've now (accidentally) broken but wasn't required anyway. Light and fan were by on/off cords on unit. Ussual wires in the ceiling, but a bypass wire from live to switch in light unit.
The light switch for the room appears to have live on both sides of the switch (I don't just mean red wire, I mean Ouch!). That isn't right, I know, but where do I go from here? Continuity testing? It's probably something very easy but I am not too hot with the theory of circuitry.
