it's on the right pipe.

It's a Potterton Suprima 60. And it's been in the house at least 7 years, but most probably a lot, lot longer.

Ok got all the above. Should there be water flowing through the return. As i said there was no water flowing from the return at all into the pump! :!:

I think i have a dodgy installed central heating pump. I have done various different things and have found the following which i think shows the pump is in the wrong direction. I drained the system and removed the pump, i used the isolation valves, but when i re filled the system with the...

It's still not working. :( Although the knocking and clunking has stopped. :) Just have the boiler cut out problem. Same as before the boiler will light, be on for 30 secs, then cut out. red light flashing away. System won't reset for ages. :? :? :? If i leave the controls on it...

Talk about school boy error. Remembered to check all rad bleed valves were tuned off, all drain points were closed. I watched the whole system while it refilled to ensure no leaks. :!: :oops: But forgot to open the pump valves after i fitted the new pump. :oops: :!: When the system...

I have a Potterton Suprima 60 boiler. Before people say it, yes i have suffered with the constant resetting, but that doesn't seem to be the problem now. Just turned my system from hot water only to half hot water half heating. noticed some knocking noises, and thought it was the...

been checking threads all over and BG seem a good bet. The price quoted is that with being on there price plans or on the emergency call out? The boiler keeps working when i turn it 'ON', but locking out on the timer. I don't want to keep getting up at 5 in the morning to keep pressing...

He changed the washers due to a small leak onto the top of the boiler case. It did take him 2 attempts to get the washers in right and i was getting a little worried about his competence. Think i'll try a new plumber and get a few quotes.

I get the impression that there is an inherant problem with Suprima boilers, and the answer is the PCB. My point for discussing here is how my problem came about. I have been in my home for around 3 years, and decided my boiler could do with a service. Called the local CORGI registered...
