Boiler FCU location

[marshr02]

Looking for advice. Boiler is in locked cupboard in bathroom, outside Zone 2. Not sure on siting of FCU. I know it's commonly put inside the boiler cupboard, but what if the boiler needs to be turned off in emergency? I have the option of putting the FCU on the wall nearby - again outside Zone 2, and well away from any splashes. Any thoughts? cheers

Hey Geordie! You're on fire today, been on the red bull?

Haha .......... No Stan.

To be honest I'm ill.

I was at the docs this morning with a raging temperature ringing in my ears, bloodshot eyes and I kept losing my balance & falling down. He's diagnosed a nasty sort of ear infection & given be tablets & stuff.

He tested me for dementia as well as I'm at the age when it kicks in, but so far I'm ok. ... Others may not agree though!!

Feeling a bit better now though.

Downside is he told me I mustn't drive and just last week I got myself a gorgeous MR2 and I want to go out & play with it.

I have now!!

One of the very last that was made.

Got it from Nottingham and Tidyboiler took me to collect it. We had fun driving back - me in the MR2 & her in her Mini Cooper. Hooligans we were !!

Still looking to get the V6 one fixed though.

This was going to be a question,but in view of the departure of the serious one. and with the silly tantrums in mind

What is this concern he has about emergency switching which prompted his question ?

If there was need for emergency switching,it would no doubt have a big red button on the front of the boiler

nail .....on ..........head.

emergency isolation is required for moving machinery that can cause harm during normal operation , eg - conveyor belt.

there is absolutely nothing you'll find in a domestic that reqs emerg isolation.

I normally have chilled bog roll to hand in the bathroom to cope with emergencies after a friday night blow out

And here we keep the coal in our baths.

Yawn.... 1) Question put on forum for advice. 2) One line silly answers. 3) Polite reply to delve further. 4) Met with 'you got your answer'. 5) Trolls then 'like' each others posting. 6) Finishing with 'jokey' posts. .....ZZzzzzzzzzzzz

Ta-rah.

yes, it's an unfortunate theme on many posts, usually with the same wannabe comedian sparks. fortunately you can block them to filter out the crap

It's an even more common theme that people demand help, get it, don't like what they hear, start abusing the people that helped them, then storm off in a girly fit without thanking the forum members......... which is what happened in this case.

Of course we do .. we enjoy all the modern conveniences and amenities.

We're very civilized here. The Romans taught us everything we know.

"Demand".... "abusing" .... honestly??

 

[Andy78]

Fair enough, maybe I was a bit harsh with those descriptives. You definitely spat your dummy though.
