Please can someone help me with a few 'teething' problems.
I have just had fitted an Ideal Isar HE24 condensing boiler and a Honeywell CM921 wireless programmable room thermostat.
They have replaced my Worcester combi boiler with built in programmer, and I am beginning to wish I still had it! although it was 10 years old and on its last legs.
The problems are as follows -
1. The boiler seems to be losing pressure, down to 1/2 bar from 1.5, we have filled it up twice and when boiler is on it goes up to 3 bar.
2. When I use the shower the water starts off very hot and then after about 30 seconds goes lukewarm and stays like that. I read the information booklet, which is not very helpful, and it says to do something with the draw off tap??? where is it??? I have turned the dial from max to next mark down and makes no difference.
3. Now, the most annoying thing is, (as I am not used to the programmer) when I have set 2 or 3 times for the heating to come on and off, the programmer seems to revert back to the temperture that is set on the target temperature. I want the heating to come on and go off when I tell it to and not carry on all night trying to retain a certain target temperature. We have tried to revert back to the factory settings and re- set everything but it does not make any difference. I have tried to keep it low at 15 deg. but this is too low for this time of year and am cold in the morning, but if I program a higher temperature in then it wants to retain that temperature and everyones sweating all night.
There must be some logic to this somewhere but at the moment I cant find it. Any advice would be helpful.
Many thanks
