I've currently got an old Ravenheat 820/20 RSF which came with the house and it has been fine for the past year.
It has now developed this problem with the hot water. Basically if I switch a hot tap on water will come through and then about a minute later the boiler will fire. A few seconds later it will run cold and then fire again a bit later on.
I have checked the fan is running etc and the boiler works fine for the heating. I'm not sure if it is relevant but the other day loads of crystal like pieces keep coming out of the taps and water basically dribbles out most of the time.
I basically need to know what it is likely to be, if it is likely to be an expensive job to get fixed or should I not chuck any more money at it and get it replaced.
Thanks in advance
