I had a prob with my Glowworm 100e Combi not supplying hot water. On closer inspection the domestic hot water switch was not operating. This was due to the sprung steel retainer being broken. I can not find this part listed on any site i have looked at....... Anyone got any ideas where i can...

Well I bit the bullet and took the heat exchanger out. I thought flushing would prob be a waste of time and it proved so. The debris was quite substantial and i doubt it would have been flushed up and out. My boiler is top fed via a mod kit which was a pain as the additional pipes thru the...

Cant you do it and report back to me.... :?: :D :D I would much prefer that :D Just a thought..... I think i am right in saying that the heat exchanger is only in the primary circuit when there is a demand for DHW? Thus to get the flushing agent thru the exchanger the diverter valve will...

I will try the in situ flush through first then. Thanks all.

Bear with me as i am just trying to understand the theory here.. If the primary side is blocked - there would be a lack of flow thru the heat exchanger and the boiler. This causes the boiler to overheat and shut down on the primary side water temp. Then the primanry water temp cools and the...

Ta for the info. I would be surprised if it is that as the system has been drained 3 times in the 5 years it has been in and inhibitor has been added on each occasion.... I did it myself. The last time was 2 years ago approx. If it is the primary side i would assume a good flush though...

Yep, has a "plate to plate heat exchanger. Can it be unblocked or is it a replacement job??? I assume this will be scale?? Now you say that it does sound as if the water flow within the boiler is noisier than i remember it being. In order to understand how you came to this and not to...

We have recently purchased some guinea pigs for our daughter. ll has been well for about a month until last week we found something had been chewing at the wooden hutch and the G.Pigs were very nervous. Another attack on the woodwork today with bits bitten off the hutch. We also saw a large dog...

I have a 5 year old Glow worm compact 100e boiler that only feeds DHW to one bathroom with a shower and a basin. In recent weeks i have noticed the water temp in the shower fluctuates quite a bit. I have also noticed when others use the shower the burner on the bolier pulses on and off rather...

The motor on my Bosch wff2000gb/12 has burnt out with a nice big pop this morning. I have removed it and been quoted online £180 for a replacement. Is it worth getting it re-wound and if so anyone got anywhere in Essex / East London they can recommend. Thanks for looking
