my hot water comes from a combi boiler. The problem is that the hot water seems to get to a certain temparature then cools right down then hot again but not really that hot. I have turned the comfort control right up on the boiler but does not have any effect.
Any ideas please.
Thanks

The boiler is a Radiant RSF24

Don't know this boiler, but when hot tap is on does the ch flow pipe get hot as well? If so a diverter valve problem.
 
Common problem on most combis when they need a service and adjustment, a sensor fails or a heat exchanger clogs up.
 
no ch pipe not getting hot when hot water on. I did notice that the water will stay hot all the time if I close the hot tap down so the flow is slower, alot slower.

forgot to mention that the heat exchanger has been cleaned
 
thanks for the obvious "get it serviced" but i asked a question on this forum because i thought someone here would have some pointers that cause these problems and perhaps how to eliminate things.
Thanks
