I have a Sime Friendly with a DHW fault.
The DHW has to be fully turned on to make the diverter valve microswitch. I have been advised that the diaphragm only needs replacing not the whole valve.
I can get a diaphragm kit for £14 but before I take the plunge is there anything I need to know, or is it simply:-
1.switch the boiler off,
2.turn off the DHW isolation valve
3.open hot water tap (to drain)
4.remove 8 screws from top cover and remove diaphragm.
5.refit diaphragm and cover
6.refill and start up.
Any comments gladly appreciated......
