Why do you need 50mm high characters for your little boilers? I would have thought 5mm would be quite adequate |

Also seems good enough for Tornado Edited By JasonB on 24/03/2018 17:16:18 |

459 forum posts 28 photos | KWIL, my 4CD boiler has a plate just like I describe tack welded to the boiler. Most machinery has nameplates stuck on or screwed on, I have never seen anything with stamped CE marks, but then again I have never bought one of Fizzy's boilers. |
