What happens on the day

The heater is repaired at the element and the thermostat. A new cylinder is not assumed and is not part of the repair. The circuit that feeds the heater is the one isolated. On the Ashtead Park side that circuit may leave an outbuilding board rather than the house board. A cottage on The Street is not opened beyond the cupboard the heater is already in.

  • Repair the element and the statThe failed element or thermostat is replaced on the heater that is there. The cylinder is left in place unless it is already leaking, in which case the electrical repair stops and the leak is reported.
  • Open the right boardIsolation is at the circuit that feeds the heater. In an Ashtead Park outbuilding that is often a separate board. The house consumer unit off Craddocks Avenue is not opened when it does not feed this heater.
  • Stay at the heaterThe Street work stays in the space the heater already occupies. Cable is not rerun through the cottage. If the feed itself has failed, that is named as a follow up.

Ashtead immersion questions

Still have a question?

Do you replace the cylinder as well?

No. The repair is the element and the thermostat on the cylinder that is there. A leaking cylinder stops the electrical work, and the leak is reported rather than wired around.

Which board is isolated in an Ashtead Park outbuilding?

The board that feeds the heater. On that side of Ashtead the outbuilding often has its own board, and the house boards stay on.

Is every cottage on The Street assumed to have an immersion?

No. The visit happens when a heater is there. The cottage is not opened up looking for a cylinder that was never part of the job.

What if the feed has failed rather than the element?

The element is not condemned for a dead feed. The circuit is named, and a repair to that feed is a follow up rather than a new element fitted onto a dead line.

Does a second consumer unit off Woodfield Lane get changed?

No. Isolation is the heater circuit. The second unit in a 1930s house stays, unless that unit is the actual fault, which would be a different job.
