    Hi,
    I have a combined temp and pressure gauge on my hot water cylinder but the temp gauge has stopped working. I'm just wondering if this is something I can easily replace myself or need to call the plumber?

    Depends on the gauge. Some of them have an auto stop valve built in so when you screw out the gauge no water will follow

    I just love them "Russian Roulette" valves.

    Ha ye. I love when it reads 3.5 bar on the pressure side. To be honest I'd never trust em. Also always see those temp gauges fail
