Glowworm Flexicom 30x pump

[diycooper]

Hi guys

A heating engineer has told me you cannot get the pumps for these boilors.

I have searched and seem to find them no problem.

He says but it wont work.

Any advice

Yeah they're still available. You'll need the new cable too

Can a blocked filter cause f9.

It's had new pressure switch already.

The filter in picture do these block on Gloweorm causing intermittent f9 ?

Unless it is restricting the pressure sensor reading, I would say no.

Thanks for responding.

Is it worth trying cleaning it as I am thinking to not do more fault finding on this like pump etc before I just change the boilor ?

It wouldn't do any harm

Just been today. Boilor yivibg intermittent f9. It worked fine when I was there hw / ch switching over and burning.

What I did noticed is the punp is getting extremely hot so you cannot keep hand on it.

Could the pump be overheating causing F9 then when it cools lets boilor reset ?

Absolutely it could.

 

[diycooper]

Absolutely it could.

Thinking put a thermal camera on it tomorrow if pumps around 80 degrees and pipes close to it around 60 degrees . Then its the pump ?
