Hi guys. its been a while since i've had boiler problems so cant complain. Anyway the problem is this. Came home to discover the ch running but no heat. The fan light was on and the burner would not light. This is the same on both ch and dhw. Took the burner cover off and replaced the silicone...

Thanks Gasguru. I think getting an engineer round is the way to go. Cheers. Ian.

Hi Dave. Yes the aps seems to be working ok. I replaced the tubbing a while back as it was starting to go hard. You say the other pipe is there to help lift the gas open? but when there is a vacuum on the pipe the burners go out and the cycle starts again and again etc. This only happens when...

It could be that the filling loop is letting water through into the CH system. Make sure the loop is isolated or even remove it. You will find the pressure does rise when the CH heats up. Best you reduce the pressure by bleeding a radiator until the pressure is where it should be. Usualy the...

Hi Folks. Boilers been playing up lately. When the CH starts it lights then switches off several times then stays lit and works fine. Today i cleaned out all the dead flies and dust and checked the silicon pipes, which are ok. When running DHW it's ok but when CH starts we're back to on off on...

Well done Tony. Would you believe i missed that.........

Cheers guys. I did replace the air pressure sensor pipes because one of them was perished and split. Could the sensor need cleaning out?

Hi folks. Had problems a couple of weeks ago with the diverter valve. Got a service kit and has been ok since. New problem now.... When switching on the CH the boiler lights up for 5 secs and then switches off then immediatly starts up again for another 5 secs. This happens 4 or 5 times then it...

Got a service kit, removed Diverter Valve, stripped it, cleaned it up and replaced all the parts from the kit.......... Replaced Valve and fired it up...... So far things are looking good, when holding the CH flow pipe and running the DHW the CH flow pipe remains cold, where as before it would...

Bloody hell cris... Thanks. I think it will come in useful. I think this will be a kitchen table job after i've sent the wife and kids out.

Hi cris, seen your name a few times. Sound like you're the man.... I've just bought a service kit and will give it a go tomorrow. It cost me £43.70 as a new Diverter Valve is £157.21 + vat... Worth a try i thought. Cheers.

I have a problem with the diverter where the DHW is heating up the CH flow pipe. I replaced the large diaphram a few months back when it turned to mush and i checked the smaller one (on top of the diverter?) which needs relacing. Is the Diverter servicable or do i have to buy another. Do i sound...

Hi g60bv. I have exactly that problem with the diverter where the DH is heating up the CH flow pipe. I replaced the large diaphram a few months back when it turned to mush and i checked the smaller one (on top of the diverter?) which needs relacing. You say you can get service kits for the...
