  1. Tx, it’s a Vetus WP 1220, 4.2 pressure, the 2.9 was fine but didn’t send the water fully around the loo. I’m assuming the higher pressure has caused the prv to operate and lose all the hot water
  2. New boat, have a pump out loo. The water pump installed, 2.9 bar was not of sufficient power to work loo properly so put on a 4.2. Today on 5th day out this somehow caused the Prv on calorifier to blow and fill bilge with water. No hot water at end of sailing. The water pump also does not run smoothly when taps, shower turned on, as though it’s labouring. Any advice please?
  3. According to Crt stoppages this will be closed with an update on 24th July. https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/notices?waterway[]=RD&start-date=18%2F07%2F2020&start-date_submit=18%2F07%2F2020&end-date=25%2F07%2F2020&end-date_submit=25%2F07%2F2020&type[]=1&order-field=startDateTime&order-direction=descending#form need to get thru from Dewsbury so will ideally would set off a week before the navigation was opened. Can anyone give me more detailed info and a best guess how long repair will be?
  4. Does anyone have any info about Greenwood Lock please, Crt web still shows as all closed but I know that’s not correct
  5. Got through Thornhill flood lock but Greenwood was shut today!
  6. Just checked with CRT, all flood locks still closed
  7. Many thanks, all I need, cheers
  8. Setting off tmrw but not sure where I can turn a 58ft boat, can I turn on Brighouse basin
  9. Tx all now found it, what confused me was that I have an acoustic box round it and I thought the small inspection hatch would give access to it but I was wrong. Still not sure which bolt is the filler/ dipstick for the Prm 150 gearbox, any help please
  10. Feel stupid asking this, new boat and head down engine hole first time...... can’t locate the dipstick or gearbox filler? Have manual at side but no luck. Help please
  11. Tx again, not too concerned re pubs as planning meals in but a pint would be nice. Going to take our time as trying out new boat, thanks for info Tx, appreciated
  12. Taking boat out from Dewsbury this Saturday. Plan to go to Brighouse and moor. Turn round and then into Huddersfield then back to Dewsbury. Appreciate recommendations for moorings in these towns and on way, any pubs open on this stretch?
  13. Thanks, missed that. Do you know where I can get the splitter from?
  14. Yes I have the vp3, where did u find that quote?
  15. The advert shown on my link to the Vision website days it is suitable? Furthermore how do I connect dab and fm out puts on the radio to the single out on the amp?
  16. Have just had one of these fitted on my NB.i note there is only 1 radio out socket on amplifier, I assume this is for FM? The attached leaflet that came with the amp make no mention at all of DAB. Yet the vision advert clearly does https://www.visionplus.co.uk/assets/pdfs/2019/ANTENNAS.pdf further more I note that the leaflet says the antenna receives radio signals of between 88 and 108 MHz and between 470&790 MHz. DAB I think is between 175 and 240 MHz, have I missed something? will this antenna be suitable for DAB ?
  17. Got that, tx. I’m much wiser now
  18. Think I now understand. So set to 16, switch to right hand side when not plugged to shore. Then when plugged in to charger only position. To left, OK? Much appreciated. So do I ever turn it to the off position?
  19. Got that, sorry for stupid question, but what is the Combi you refer to? So is there any point in switching it to the charger setting?
  20. Yes that’s the unit, that explains it more simply, Tx. Do you have a suggestion for the input setting, 14?. So when not on shore power it becomes a battery charger? That’s the bit I’m not shaw of as doesn’t the alternators charge the battery when engine on?
  21. Help, just taken possession of new boat and it has one of these fitted, have read manual but still not sure what it does. Can someone in simple layman’s language tell me what it does and do I have to alter any settings?
