Just have my old Ideal (17kw) boiler replaced with a Worcester 24ri.
Never had a problem with the old system, OK pipes creaked on start up buts thats the house(wooden frame) install rather than the boiler. however on the new boiler when I turn the temp gauge on the front of the boiler to over half way, the noise really increases and the expansion tank in the loft starts to steam as the system vents.
I believe the wiring controls to the thermostat in the hall are fine, both back up to the cylinder/pump in the airing cupboard and to the programmer is in the kitchen by the boiler but I will get these checked.
So can the new boiler really be too powerful, or should the system still work fine even with the boiler temp control turn up high? Its a 4 bed detached.
