Customer Reviews

Not enough fault finding
A lot of the book is taken up with bog standard items like pipe sizing, flues, health and safety, pipe freezers and "What is a Combi boiler" If you are CORGI registered you will know all of this and have a certificate to prove it. On a positive note the section on Fault Finding & Repair is brilliant, this guy knows his subject, I am disapointed, I would have liked more of it (fault finding)and less padding.

Helping Hand
I purchased this book specifically to help with a problem that I had with my combi-boiler and was money well spent. An hour or so reading the relevant sections of the book bought enlightenment to my problem, very good.

boilers made simple
this book covers everything that is, and can happen to your system. I especially found amusing the depth and detail of the corrosion section. if your boiler isn't working; this book will tell you why.
