congratulations on your promotion. inspector slugbabydotcom of the yard.

hard wired thermostats would be better,its only a little more disruption,if done with CARE.

keep up the pressure on gasssafe.eu seems they want to run their business in not a gas safe like manner. WHY change the name,surley they could have paid corgi for the name,seems this country has lost its back bone with regard for safety and common sense,good luck lads and the best of british.

namsag thanks for reply. sorry i confused a baxi 130he for a preforma. the 130he i think is a barcelona/promax he+has a heat engine to provide heat for a combi use. not many good reviews here.yet. heck its a big machine to hang on your wall. is the preforma a class A combi or a class B...

namsag,thanks for reply,yes i can clean it out. is the preforma 30he based on the barcelona heat engine design,is it a band a or b boiler. thanks.

thanks petit pablo. i have the blocked plate exchanger in front of me now and it is now dry,i can see flaky black slivers if i shake it about. the plates inside are very close together,so i can clean it out,but why should i bother as a new one in 3 years time will still be reasonably...

thanks for reply tony. your comments about insulation,yes insulation could be improved. about fitting a condensing boiler well i would consider that if only i could get one that will last for 6 years without breaking down. see many condensing boilers here have a poor record and many exchanged...

gas4you and agile,thanks for prompt replys. gas4you,i have turned off the heating flow isolation valve to double check no heat is escapeing to radiators.so you think the flat heat exchanger is restricted. agile,the property is a draughty old london house,original windows,high ceilings,open...

well this is my gem of a boiler,it has worked very well for 18 months. now i am getting very poor temperature in the hot water,heating is ok. pcb has been changed 18 months ago due to a total breakdown,also serviced by same guy. burner pressure on water only starts at 12 mbar after 45 seconds...

broag, nice boilers,small,quiet,reliable etc. only problem is it is going on an old system with 20 years of carp in it.
