    Hi,
    Could some one answer a couple of questions that I am unsure about please.


    Should my heating element be touching my heating coil inside the copper cylinder?
    Should the cylinder inside be green?
    And would it be normal for the heating element to be black with green spots on it ?
    Thanks for you help.

    Totally normal, see any church roofs lately. Coppor goes green with contact with water/ rain.
    Element normal also. But if fitting New emersion then tap New immersion with hammer (gently) before fully screwing home to change its angle away from coil.
