I’ve tried with the flow valve open and closed with the demand for HW and the result is still the same

The pipework hasn’t changed from when the boiler was working perfectly

Hello Ongoing problem with a Combi boiler (Remeha Avanta Plus 28c) When hot tap is opened boiler starts up and hot water runs for about 15 seconds then runs cold and boiler stops. Interestingly the CH Flow pipe is absolutely red hot despite no heating called for. When calling for CH it locks...

Hello Any advice on how to use laminate flooring on a inset step in this case from a dining room into the kitchen? Ive watched numerous videos on stairs but this is somewhat different. Thank you

Hi Andy Yes the pump is running as before

I have a Potterton Suprima 80 boiler which has starting locking out every two minutes... The boiler has a new PCB and overheat thermostat fitted (a new second spare pcb has also been swapped in and the same issue remains) It fires up from the timer on both the CH and DHW timings but after two...

Hi Stuckinarut, you were correct - the expansion vessel isnt holding pressure. I left the guage attached for a good 30 mins and it was at zero. Ill get a new vessel and see what next to rule out ...

I did, so it points towards the expansion vessel then. I guess its not unheard of that a new PRV can fail but highly improbable... Ill be back on friday and pick up where I left off. Thank you very much for you time and thoughts thus far

I will check the pressure again on Friday when Im back at the house and see - maybe it tell a different story by then.

correct a bicycle foot pump

Hello and thanks for the reply, I changed it as the boiler had been sitting unused for several months and when last used the dripping was occuring. When I took the old one off it was totally crudded up so seemed like the correct approach. I topped up the expansion vessel to 1 bar and 24 hours...

Hello, I have replaced the PRV in my Remeha Avanta 28c last week and noticed a slight drop in pressure despite the PRV being new. The heating circuit and radiators are watertight having been tested. I placed a receptacle under the exterior pipe on the outside wall and it has collected about...

In my case there simply isn’t enough clearance to get a grip on the locking ring as it’s not clear of the actual flooring which is the issue the original poster had too

Just an update, Not enough access to get the pipe/Spigot so Vertical trap was the correct solution

Glad it was successful, I’ll try the same
