Just tried a different tack which seems to work: Set roomstat and timer to ON and really cranked up the roomstat temperature target. Boiler lit and stayed lit, no problems. On that basis it seems the boiler isn't happy to run if the ambient temp in the hall is already close to the roomstat...

System boiler, about 7 years old. Just started playing up. It shuts itself down a few seconds after the burner LED illuminates, yet solid green LED remains on, indicating mains power. A forum member has advised this could be a flame-sensing issue. I noticed a new issue tonight: the boiler...

What would cause a Barcelona to shut itself down a few seconds after the burner has lit? It would then wait 3 minutes (solid green light and a quiet humming noise) and try to light again, unsuccessfully. Pressure fine at 1 bar and control knob set at two-thirds of maximum. Had this cycle of...

Nothing wrong with a small step up into a bathroom. Mine all have a step. Get a nice bit of oak made up for the threshold then have the bottom of the door shaved to fit.

Worth mentioning that the moss will simply return if you do not change the condition of the lawn. Try to improve the drainage of the lawn and fertilise the grass so it has a chance to out-compete the moss.

Most pro's in my neck of the woods won't even give my Barcelona a routine service ("Barcelona?! Haha. No, we don't touch them") so this guy probably had no choice but to get stuck in himself!

Thanks, I'm going to get to work this weekend. Got a puny black&decker scarifier but it will be adequate.

My lawn has accrued quite a layer of thatch. Everything I've read suggests that scarification should only be carried out in Autumn, but i'm tempted to have a go now. Just before then next rains are due I intend to scarify, apply a fertiliser then top dress. Any reason why I shouldn't go...

Probably not. Crikey

Golly

Installed it today. Only took 5mins. Lovely bit of kit. Many thanks for the help.

Okay; I'm going to connect Live (red wire) into Terminal A and the Switched Live (yellow sleeve) into Terminal B. May the force be with me.

Thanks. Yes, it has two batteries. Sorry to be dim; I know to connect old 1 to new A, but I'm still not clear what wire to put in new B. There isn't a 3 on the old unit, it has 1, 2, E & 4.

Yep; back plate and fascia

Thanks, what do I do with it?!

Nope, hard-wired

I want to replace my dial-type Eberle roomstat with a CM907 that I've just bought. The CM907 just requires simple Live & Neutral connections. However, I took off the front of the Eberle and it had 4 connections; Live, Earth and two Neutrals (one N was something to do with a "heating load")...

Ref. Baxi Barcelona system boiler. About 6 years old. Timer/roomstat called for heat at 0615 this am. I was awake and heard the boiler start up. However, it switched itself off after a few (5?) seconds. Hauled myself out of bed and went to investigate. Mains LED was solid green and it...

Is this the going rate?! I can't really see what there is to "service", other than regenerate the air bubble (which I do myself anyway) and ensure the relief valves work. The same people quoted me 65 quid to service my Baxi Barcelona, which sounds okay. Just a bit bemused by the Megaflo...

My Baxi Barca. Can't get someone round for love nor money
