I know what's wrong with this one!! (been caught myself) you MUST remove the 24v control link on the boiler PCB (otherwise it will operate 24hrs as this one is doing!) :wink:

But just a point - even filthy system water should not be able to leak out under the boiler onto your floor so I am really confused now! :?

Is it a Thermostat or a Compensator control?? perhaps some pics would clarify?

I suspect that what you are calling wrong is actually right, because what you propose will cause the pump to get a back feed and run against a closed motorised valve when the other circuit calls for heat :wink:

And don't blame your boiler for a leak that isn't even on the Boiler!! :lol: :roll:

Might be better if the boiler shell is still sound, to obtain a new Burner such as a EOGB X400 series?? :wink:

I have used Soap to stem a leak on a brim full 2500 tank the leak was at the bottom too!! it stopped the leak dead for 2 weeks giving the client time to have a new tank fitted in a "compliant position" elsewhere if the tank is not evenly supported it can easily crack, so make sure your new...

How about a Grundfos Magna 1 25/60-180 ?? can't say I'm a fan though! :wink:

No parts are available for the Hojspanding burner fitted to the Mk 1 I managed to get a coupling for a Sterling to fit one last week but a HP oil line will prove impossible, have you looked at using a HP flex 1/8" bsp (as used for oil pressure gauges?? with some 1/8" sockets you should be able...

I did a notification last week, the Client recieved the certificate within 4 Days so at the moment they are getting them out pretty quickly - are you sure your installer is Registered/Qualified as a notification really only takes 2 minutes! :?

In all seriousness you will need at least 3 more able bodied persons to lift that back in position and secure it- it is simply a matter of man power! :roll:

My money is on the Solenoid Coil, or Capacitor :wink:

This type of switch is renowned for leaking! your method statement looks fine but two points TURN OFF the cold water main, then open up a hot tap to discharge the trapped water under pressure before starting work, secondly make sure that the new switch is in exactly the same orientation (there...

Building regs require and have always required a remote acting fire valve be fitted so yes you will have to fit one such as a teddington KBB (other approved types are available) I would remove the exisitng non- conforming valve to avoid future problems! :wink:

Connect the flushing equipment to your system using appropriate fittings :lol:

It occurs to me that no one has checked the in-line oil filters, partial blockage of oil filters will cause the symptoms you describe If you need a help send me a personal message - my company are based in Suffolk and specialise in service & repair (OFTEC) registered (for what it is worth!)...

Tony - a Gas Train is the term used to describe valves, governors and safety devices making up the control group supplying fuel gas to the burner. The Fan is not part of the gas train - however it is still not for tnkering with by an incompetent (someone who has not PROVED competence is...

We charge anything from £78 - to £112 +vat & parts - depending on what the boiler is from a wall hung heat only to a gas fire back boiler or a conensing oil combi !! Why are you "fishing" ? :?

Another Vote for Hounsfield Boilers. When Andrew Hounsfield decided to make an external boiler he spoke to people in the industry that install AND service (people like me!) I advised him that a good external boiler would have a "True" balanced flue - not just a low level discharge ( as this is...

it is a steel pipe - my guess is GAS :!:
