what are the 2 channels for on my biasi flue?? one is linked to the exhaust and one to the intake, inspection/maintenance maybe? should they both be tight? Hope you experts can offer some sound advice Regards

gave it a clean and it stays on when burner flames but, hot water is fine but ch not. would an air lock cause it to go out?

Thats exactly what it looks like... just as the fan goes into fast spin the pilots all over the show then gone. I'll give it a blow down the end...

My system is about ten years old and I have had a few probs past 6 months, however, what happens now is the pilot light goes out every time the burner is about to ignite. This happens with either CH or DHW, any ideas??

Not much help DP. BIG yellow book full of rip off merchants and cowboys, 2 weeks ago man from respectable looking ad in BIG book came and fiddled with my thermocoupler, took it off and said 'theres yer problem mate'. said he would go and get new one from nearest dealer, over half hour each way...

one thing after another. heating ok apart from pressure problem but hot water demand causes shut down. got gradually worse and even with ch off it doesnt work. what it does do is heat the flow pipes for ch so guess my diverter valve has had it. could that cause shut down after 30 secs of hot...

when not used, pressure at zero, fill to 1bar and fire up ch, keep an eye on it for half hour as quickly goes into red, release thru prv bout 4 or 5 times till steady at 1.5bar, all ok providing temp set at lowest. when ch goes off, half hour and zero pressure. repeat above each time one gets...

:evil: :twisted: :x WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH MY *!*?!* POTTERTON !"\**/@** PUMA 80??????????????

right, sorted. Forget all that about pump business, discovered someone left hot tap dripping in bath, just slightly but obviously enough for boiler to give demand to hw supply. problem solved there, BUT pressure still goes into red and has to be released a few times while ch on, and when off...

back to my boiler after 2 days break and seems i have another problem in that the ch fires up for about 30 secs then goes off. hot water ok, pilot ok. pump seems hot to touch, could it be its jammed and thats why the burner goes out. Sorted pressure thanks for that

what I meant was how do I change it if its not at 10-15psi??

how do I check the pressure vessel recharge??

I have recently fitted a new pressure relief valve and pressure gauge. Upon opening the fill tap, the needle moves much faster than the old one and when the CH fires up the gauge moves quickly into the red. I release sufficient to 1.5 but it quickly goes into the red again. I have to do this 4...
