Hello,
I have bought a part to repair my storage heater so has thermostatic control again. I want someone to look at my pix to see if it looks like the correct part? Key parts for these heaters appear to be;
Thermal Cut-out
Charge Controller
Bi-metal Damper
Limit Accelerator
Limit...
When the burner shuts down the circulator pump on combi keeps running endlessly? The diverter valve is noisy, as it seems to give a "clunk" during program changes.
I know there is pump over-run on some pumps, but this never stops?
Its on a Worchester oil boiler, but I would think it would be...
I suppose a "woof"
It doesn't smell like kerosene in the flue gas outside either.
Just seems strange that both oil and spark are absent? Then both together for complete combustion??
Forgot to say oil pump and motor run WITHOUT locking out burner and no flame made ??
Firebird 90k Combi Boiler.
Boiler runs some times and well when it does.
Plenty of oil, but not at nozzle. (new nozzle fitted)
No electrode spark. (brand new mectron control box + solonoid)
thanks
As it says I need a render that will have a red sandstone look. Does this just mean adding red dye, but how much?
What is the right ratio for exterior render?
How do you test a stat.
I heard you put the end in boiler water and test electrical continuity with a tester?
If you still have continuity then its obviously not breaking no heat rise.
Although it might trip on a very low temperature?
The previous plumber saved a bit of cash by only plumbing to the boiler with 22mm, leaving top section still 28mm. I think this is the bad circulation problem. Horstmann valve.
