The price they charge is a joke as you can buy the same heater they install for less than £100
The other parts like the refillable gas setup are also easily available and are reasonably cheap too so you are paying out loads of dosh for the install.

Oh yes please coffee with legionaires disease.. lovely!

The Legionaires implications come from the storage of tepid water. So maybe an immersion set up ? And on demand hot water system couldn't possibly be an incubator for Legionaires, in this country at least !!! 

But what about the heated water that might then be left to sit about in the hose?
I could be wrong.. but drinking deionized water is just as stupid.

Ro/di filtration process used for window cleaning my understanding is it strips out not only dissolvable solids but also the chems put in it that makes it safe to drink normal tap water. However it does not filter out bacteria/micro organisms that can flourish in purified water holding tanks etc.  Running it through a hot water heater would make no difference to make it safer to drink either once the chlorine/fluoride is taken out of water. What it does mean though using purified water the water heater should lasts longer as don't get furred up. Still I would pass on making hot drinks from it though as the water is not boiled to make it safer to drink.

Have you checked your fuses as they may be corroding or wearing thin. I've had problems with fuse blades in the past and replaced them then everything works efficiently again.

Thanks I'll change them today and see how I go.

Rumour mongering I had a chat with an inspector for l/d this week he told me in four years he has never found a problem yet. He said the reason we Windies will not get L/D is due to our water not been stagnant and it does get cold each night. So let us bury the old wives tail. He said the biggest problem is redundant water piping and boiler with header tanks in the roof. O yes you will need lots of limescale to be present.

I think the issue with dionised water is if you have polished it off with resin before you drink it. Resin is a chemical wash.

At one time we bought resin from a supplier who assured us that it was FDA approved so suitable for human consumption.  I only ever drank the water from the tank once and it tasted terrible.  After we finished the first bag of FDA approved resin we bought the ordinary stuff.
