    FERROLI BOILER PROBLEM - OWNERS CONTACT ME HERE

    With :?: :?: My Ferroli HE31C has been a 'challenge' over the last 3 years (new pump, new diverter valve) and now has a leaking heat exchanger connection :roll: I would be interested to hear what your intended replacement is :)

    Replacing diverter valve on Ferroli HE31C ??

    Thanks for the reply Boiler is about 18 months old but wasn't registered apparently so no warranty :( D codes are 'delay' - d1 is 2 minutes delay after use of DHW, d2 is indefinite and kicks in once boiler reaches 'overheat limit' (92C I believe) and stays until boiler has cooled down...

    Ferrli Optimax HE30

    Had similar issue this last weekend - ticking from diverter, no display so looked totally dead. Solution (pro temp) - the diverter is sticking and not allowing the boiler to initialise, give it swift tap with a screwdriver, fixed it for me but don't know how long for :roll: Steve ps...

    Replacing diverter valve on Ferroli HE31C ??

    After much scratching of head and reviewing these forums I've come to the conclusion that the diverter valve on my Ferroli HE31C is at fault. All the usual symptoms including good DHW but no CHW with error code D2 when trying to call for heat. A swift tap of the diverter valve with a good...

    Ferroli Optimax HE31C - total failure, no CH or HW !!

    You're right :) It wasn't the warranty, it was the price. Still, the old addages always hold true and there are so many that apply here - you get what you pay for or perhaps, you reap what you sow, or possibly fools rush in where angels fear to tread. If it goes, it goes - the next one...

    Ferroli Optimax HE31C - total failure, no CH or HW !!

    All fixed. :D Isolated the pump and put 240v across it - blown fuse immediately. Got replacement Grundfos 15-50 from PTS, split head from body and replaced the faulty one in the boiler. Easy peasy, only took 30 mins and all is now warm and toasty !!! Steve

    Isolator valves needed - but which to choose ??

    Doh - again !! You're right :D Just had a quick look and sure enough there are isolator valves with the unit so should be OK. Many thanks :P Steve

    Isolator valves needed - but which to choose ??

    My Combi system does not have any isolator valves between the boiler and the rads (doh!). Fine until you have a boiler problem so - (once bitten as they say), whilst I have the system down I will take the opportunity to fit valves on both flow and return. Does anyone have any reccomendations...

    CH Pump rework ??

    Looking at the pump in my combi, it seems to be the same as a standard Grundfos 15/50 except for the bit with the impeller etc. A replacement 'boiler pump' is about 3 times the cost of the standard Grundfos pump so I was wondering - has anybody tried swapping the pump motor body onto an...

    Ferroli Optimax HE31C - total failure, no CH or HW !!

    Just spoken to Ferroli technical and they suspect the pump (although a bit vague really) ?? Would I be able to disconnect the pump and run boiler in DHW mode to confirm if this is the problem ?? Steve

    Ferroli Optimax HE31C - total failure, no CH or HW !!

    Not sure if anyone can advise but I have a 12 month old Ferroli Optimax HE31C which has failed over the xmas period - no heating or hot water :( Display was completely blank - not a sausage, checked plug fuse (all OK) checked inside the boiler and found that BOTH board fuses (250v 3.15A) had...
