Ok thanks I will check and try that, I assume the engineer checked that when he came as he tried to eliminate what he could. His theory was heat exchanger leaking or expansion vessel blocked. If definitely improved after clearing the blockage but it built back up again after a week.

It rises a little maybe 0.5 bar but I haven’t actively checked the pipe, there doesn’t seem anywhere else it could be leaking though. All rads and connections are fine and I would know if it was behind a wall the amount that has been lost

Nothing that I can see as yet but look to be a few other fittings where sludge could build up, I think the expansion vessel is probably the worst. The pressure keeps dropping as it’s going out through condensate pipe… I think

Yes and no, it’s been an ongoing issue for a long time that has come and gone and despite many services and engineers I’ve only got to the bottom of frequent pressure loss. The system has been regularly topped up to keep it working so often the inhibitor has been diluted. I’m going look at a...

I need to install a Magnetic Filter as my system is getting blocked with sludge, mainly the expansion vessel but no doubt elsewhere. System is 10 years old and not far off full replacement but need to keep going for a bit. Boiler is Baxi Megaflo 2 system 12 compact GA. From my limited knowledge...

Right - fixed, It was the heat sensor (thermistor) £15 to replace from my local plumbers merchants. Replaced that and it fired right up. Thanks for the suggestions and help!

Right, was confusing the primary flow switch for a min, I'm not sure if this is working then without taking another look later today. I have a friend coming round who knows a bit about boilers and reckons he might be able to help me. Will check the sensor as well. Cheers guys

Yes when in CH mode or th CH being activated the pump start running and gets warm, but no ignition. Not sure if you are referring to the primary flow being the micro switch attached to the diverter valve. If so this is being connected properly as I have manualy removed and pressed, the pump...

I'm not sure it is either a Riva or Prisma, it just says Biasi 24s..... The sliding switch appears to be working correctly, when switched off the green light goes off and in constant or timed mode it activates the diverter valve correctly for CH. This has not been moved or changed recently...

Hi Had a search of forums but found nothing like... can anyone help? I have a Biasi 24S combi boiler and the CH is no longer working. The DHW is still working fine and firing up the bolier ok. The diverter valve is working ok and still pressing both switches (checked this as had problem...
