    Stanley Erin Boiler Stove with Outside Air Kit

    It seems to be the draw in the chimney. I dont know if it is a new previously unused chimney or a stainless one. You will have to eliminate a birds nest etc.. and make sure it it unrestricted. Also check that it rises above the ridge of the house a bit. A neighbour had a chimney that he had to...

Maybe you have another air outlet at the front for a airwash for door glass. Ensure this is open and check if you have the proper draw. Check your baffle inside the fire...

    Gravity flow distance for stove

    More food for thought now. I guess alot of people in times gone by have their pump down next to the fire/backboiler with a switch there to turn it on when they hear the banging.

    Gravity flow distance for stove

    the distance between my stove and the coil in my cylinder in the hotpress is approx 45 feet. My manual for stove says max 25 feet of 1 inch pipe.

    Dad (65) made redundant - SW entitlements?

    Your dad should have paid into the construction workers pension fund which at his age he can claim a lump sum and weekly allowance from. This is a fund which he has been paying into all his life weekly out of his wages. It is not a hand out but his own money back.
