DON'T BIN YET.... :D hang on to them...part fill the boiler and see if it works for a start...you have a column..that needs to be opened up to see what's what.
I tried to be normal once, worst two minutes of my life.

The boiler works lol

It LOOKS like a column but is actually upsides down? the column goes down!
It also has a glass top and looks to me as if the water boils... condenses on the top glass and drips down the middle?

Heres a link to the company who make it.

The tea urn might need to have the thermostat disabled. They can be used but the constant on/off of the heating can smear the heads/tails into the hearts, if you're doing it properly and making cuts......

Cheers, I am going to concentrate on my boiler first, the tea urn is now in my shipping container for storage for a rainy day :)
So many projects, so little time......
