ideal isar luke warm water

[nufc67]

hi, my sisters h/w is running luke warm when she opens the hot tap the boiler seems to be fired up to full rate i.e burner light on and there is no fault code coming up, any ideas? friend of hers said it could be a sensor or heat ex/ any help would be grateful thanks.

Possibly water/water heat exchanger scaled. Is this a new problem or has it been ongoing for a while?

its just started to do it i think i said it might be because of the water is colder coming into the house if this makes any difference thanks.

Sorry to disagree but if the boiler fires up and stays on full on burn then the DHW HEX is fine

more likely the diverter valve is stuck.

when everything is old (including the rads etc) run a hot tap and feel the flow pipe.

if it gets hot then is new div valve time
