Hi,
Observations/comments/thoughts welcome.
Have Ideal Icos He24 which has now been installed just on 4 yrs.
Have always had a problem since about 2 months after installation with the odd rumble/gurgle/bang/yawn. This has never given any error code or shut down. Installers came back numerous times with pump change, igniter change,by-pass valve fitted and new pcb fitted. None of these have ever improved the fault. More pronounced in winter as system used more constantly.
The C/h and D/h/w have always actually worked very well and still do operate very well.
Condensate trap/drain is cleared and sump is very clear.
Have you guys came across this nuisance problem on your travels?
Have you encompassed any where maybe the heat exchanger external fins have clogged up a bit at the top near the burner thereby causing a restriction of the condensing water to travel and flow to the lower sump quick enough? Could this be causing the boiling/bubbling noise at times?
Just to reiterate all works fine except for the annpyance/sound effect!
Wouls really appreciate your experiences and thoughts.
Regards
