you are the one upset not me

Well I just don't like being called an idiot by someone I don't even know who knows nothing about me. I'm sure you would echo these sentiments too!

[queenslander]

I agree with you, and when i posted your post was not there so i think you took to heartwhat was not meant for you, so tell me what is my training/education and do think I should listen to the crap posted about me?

Het guys, just chill out. I will tell you what really happens.


First of all people like Pete work out all the sizes and routes and calculations needed. They draw the diagrams and pass them on to people like queenslander. Queenslander then checks them over and makes any corrections and alterations and takes on the job. Then the whole thing gets given to us on the site and we take the drawings and once we have finished laughing, we throw them away and do the job properly. Each of us has a purpose and the guy doing the job has the last say......

The first email that I open and look what happened!!!

CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN ME ALL THAT??? WHY EVERY TIME THAT I POST SOMETHING WE HAVE TO SEE AN ARGUMENT FOLLOWING!!!!

CALM DOWN ALL OF YOU!!!

I left for few hours and look what I found…does anyone need a gun???

And let’s put the things in order…

First of all, Zan thank you so much for your help and your advices. I really appreciate the time you spent and all your help. To be honest I was thinking gas as the only and the best choice but I wanted your opinion as you lived in foreign country.
Peter calm down…all he said is true. As I said we already have a gas heater in my house but when I will move to my own house I will have to put a heater too. And Cyprus doesn’t mean the ancient country. We have double-glazing windows for a long time now. And in my own house is double-glazing windows…
About the hot water…there is a way to turn off that during the summer and turn it on again in winter. When we turn on the hot water cylinder we have extremely good water pressure. So Zan was right again.
About the fuel tang…its fine …we don’t have any problems but you was right that the man who put gas in the tang have to come very often…but he knows when he have to come… every 7-10 days…so its fine…we don’t even have to call him.

Zan I want to ask you few more things…what is the Compi Boiler…I didn’t understand that…my English are not so well and my knowledge on that even less so please can you explain me with simple words 
And another thing…we have only one thermostatic box that we control the temperature…is that what you meant with the thermostatic radiator? I have to tell you that we can increase or decrease the power/temperature of each radiator from the radiators too…so I don’t know if that’s what you meant.

And about the shower…Pete gave you my answer…

And hardest of all, try not to think of me when you are taking a shower.

Zan … I am trying soooo hard not to think of you in the shower, but I just can't help myself

And for the conclusion…I would like to let you know Pete and everyone else that believe that I might not be a woman…THAT I AM 100% REAL…AND WOMAN!!!

And if anyone wants a proof I can give you details of who I am! I am not hiding behind my pc! I can give information about who I am and give you a photo too if you wish. You can come and pick me up from the airport too when I will be back!!!

Heating values of various fuels in BTUs/US gallon

U.S. Conventional Diesel 128,450
Low-sulfur Diesel 129,488
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) 84,950
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) 74,720

The choice of system in Cyprus depends totally on the price of fuels in Cyprus

A combination boiler or combi boiler is a boiler where you do not need a cylinder to store hot water. The water is heated when you turn the tap on, as you need it. When you turn the tap off the boiler stops heating the water. Don’t know how old you are but all the older Cypriots will know when I say, it is a modern version of an Ascot water heater. This one boiler will also do your heating. It is very efficient because you heat what you use. The problem with cylinders is that they lose heat no matter how well insulated they are so sometimes you are heating the same water over and over again. They also take up a lot of space and most run off he tank in the loft. There are cylinders that can run off the mains water supply but MUST be installed by a qualified heating engineer with the knowledge to fit them because they are a potential bomb filled with very hot water in the house. So in short, the combi boiler system is just the boiler and the radiators and that is it. There is one down side to these boilers and that is, if you have someone in the shower and another person turns the tap on else where, be it cold or hot, then the temperature will change for the person taking the shower and they will usually let you know by swearing at you through the bathroom door. It is a small price to pay if you have limited space though.


As for your thermostats, they seem to be as I described. Those ones on the radiators are the “thermostatic radiator valves” (I take it they have numbers on them?) They will allow you to regulate the temperature in each room as required by the individual. They also help to get the whole house more or less the same temperature because sometimes one room can heat up quicker than the other. They also help to conserve energy by turning off that radiator that has done its job while the others catch up.

There should only be one other thermostat and that is the one on the wall in the hallway. This controls the CENTRAL temperature of the house and turns all the radiators off when it has reached the temperature set.

Hope that is what you wanted and good luck.
