I had a new Worcester 24Ri fitted to an existing system a few months ago and now the flow temperature never gets above about 50deg.C. ( (measured with pipe thermometer) The Worcester service guy has visited 3 times , replacing the heat cell and the control circuit board. Each time the diagnostics show the boiler reaching max temp. then modulating down. Conclusion - insufficient flow .
The system has been powerflushed twice, demonstrating no excessive resistance to flow. It has a new Grundfoss 15-60 pump.
The system heated up OK with my old Gloworm boiler although I know the new boilers are more sensitive to flow rate.
It's an open vent system with the boiler on the ground floor and the pump on the first floor next to the 2 zone valves & HW cylinder. 11 rads + HW in a 4 bed semi.
Any suggestions?
