ALright guys, Anyone know the Prt No for the a reduced pressure zone valve on a Glowworm 24 Ci (the brass valve that leaks when you fill it)?? Cheers Grill

Alright mate, Im not really that clued in on different oil burners but the capacitor should be readily reachable from teh outside of teh burner. On some Riello burners though they are hard wired in. On my Sterling the capacitor just screwed into teh main body of teh burner and a black...

Hi mate, I changed the capacitor on this one and it sorted it right out and i had a mate whose was doing the same thing. He changed the capacitor and hey presto solved. Another thing i did notice was that mine had a tendency to do it when very windy!!! Grill

Evening, Schoolboy question i know but sure im only learning. If i need to repressurise a Vokera Hydra do i turn the radiator type valve, which broke in my hand, to open and then turn the filling loop lever vertically downwards?? Then close off the radiator valve again and turn black lever...

Hi Chris, Yeah that is exactly when it happens. Another school day for me!!! G

No problem sir, I know exactly where you mean now. That truly is a stange one. Knowledge is power and you have the power. Ill try this first before i bung in a new fan!!! Boilers never cease to amaze me!!!! G

Where exactly is it mate?? You got a diagram by any chance. I have no manual for this one. G

Hi Bones, Now how the hell was i suppoused to work that one out!!!!!! :D Why though does the noise only happen when the boiler modulates down?? Grill

Evening All, Was called out to a C & M brittony 80 Combi tonight that was making a noise like it was going to take off. Basically when i ran the HW the boiler started to scream just before it modulated down. When modulated down the noise stopped. I played about with teh water flow to get...

Hi guys, I sorted that divertor valve tonighta dn it was a gift. However i ordered the part number you quoted but the rubber diaphragm that came with it was too small to replace the existing one?? Unless the parts centre have labelled it wrong. Anyway the other diaphragm looked fine. No...

Any of youguys got any idea of price/part number for manifold?? Surely you will have to screw the PRV into the manifold anyway and will have same possible adjustment problem?? G

Yeah i was looking at the PRV and struggling to get my head around how it works. It didn't seem to be spring loaded like some of the other ones i have come across. It is only literally dripping slowly now but i know this wont get any better. Will get the whole manifold and just unscrew the...

Cheers for that, Reckon it must be the prob on the HW as sometimes it runs and is piping hot and then the next time it runs and goes cold. So if a Therms resistance is changing it still may not be okay. Just when i thought i was getting the hang of my multimeter!!! More product specific...

Also i waited for about a minute for it to kick back in. How long does it usually take?? G

Sorry forgot to mention. I checked the resistance of this as well and it was dropping when heating up also. Now i know these need to be replaced as a pair as they give bother. Could it be as simple as that??? G

Guys, Was called out to a Ferroli Modena where the customer said the DHW was staying hot for 20 secs and then going cold. From reading through the forum this would suggest a faulty thermistor. Boiler hasnt been serviced for 3 yrs. 18 mbar working pressure at gas valve on CH. 12 mbar for HW...

Thanks for that guys. Should i reccommend that teh owner gets the system flushed?? I put Fernox into teh system last year as well. Will this dirt in teh system eventually stop teh valve operating?/ G

Hi guys, I have a Baxi 80e which is leaking water from the pushrod in the diverter valve. From reading other posts i just need to change an o ring in teh diverter valve to solve it. Anyone have any idea what the part number is for this?? Cheers Grill

Hi guys, Im only starting out in the business and am only working in the evenings at present. I was wondering what is the best way to get your name out there to drum up some business. Im taking an Ad out in the Yellow pages. I had some sales guy on the phone yesterday saying that if...

OOPPSSS, Majorly embarrassed about the burner identification!!! Just havent seen one like this before so couldnt ID it. How old do you reckon it is?? Again there were no marking on the boiler to identify it. Was hexagonal shape if that is any clue!!!! Was going to pull the pump off...
