Problem with Worcester 24cdi

beermatt3 · 4 Mar 2006

Hi everyone, got a problem. Been called in top have at look at Worcester 24cdi combi boiler. The pressure creeps up to 4bars. There must a fault with the safety valve, but does anyone what the cause is of the increased pressure.

It is one of those ones with the key that push up from underneath to fill it up so it can't be getting extra water.

Anyway over to you lot, answers on a postcard to ?

Perforated secondary heat exchanger? there's only so many ways water can get in and if the key isn't in it's not from there.

Would that be the water to water heat exchanger?

They are a b****r those boilers to work on - leak like sieves all the time.

Too many fiddly o'rings and plastic parts for my liking.
