Talk to the BG engineer about fitting a Magnatech Filter on the return pipe. this should filter out anything in the water that is causing the problem. It should also prevent BG from deciding not to cover it. Rather than you ordering a pump online ask the BG engineer to get you one. He...

Call back the (non) repair guy

Make sure that the pump is vented of air and that the auto air vent is open. Sounds like the heat cannot get away from the boiler due to poor circulation. Often the original fault is caused by a blocked plate heat exchanger on a performer. The crap in the system blocking the H/Ex could also...

The gas given off by the foam as it sets/dries out is flammable. As the boiler came on it sucked the fumes into the boiler and boom. Boiler was wrecked and so was the engineer standing in front of it. It was in a loft and he was lucky not to go through the ceiling. BG engineer was only...

I suggest you get a RGI to look at this. Wind should not blow into a boiler with any considerable force if the boiler is a room sealed boiler such as yours. The fact that it is suggest that maybe the boiler may not be sealed to the room and that the wind is blowing through the boiler. I...

I can see the problem here...... ..............'installed in Feb' that'll be it, it's a Keston Probably a control fault. Have a look at the zone valve? I take it from your post that the HW is OK?

Revenge of the BG engineer....... Gather now that E168 relates to a Pump, GV, Ign or poss PCB fault. All working now so the customer suggested that he call in the warranty. Result..... I'll close the job down then.

Too late to call Baxi and want to sort this problem out for a family with a young baby. Gold 24HE 47 590 05 has come up with the following faults, all of which not listed in the MI's E131 E168 The boiler has worked after reset and all seems to be fine. Am checking the appliance over...

If you turn the float towards the valve the water level will be lower. Otherwise just bend the arm. Will do no harm.

Does the boiler make any sound? Can you hear the fan turning? You really need to check that the boiler is getting 240v on the switch live terminal. For this you will need and know how to use a multimeter. Post back with what the boiler does when you switch it on. Get the controls...

A little limited on info. What happens in these 15-20 mins. Does the boiler ignite? What is calling for heat? HW and Htg? Does anything get hot? New style PCB (enclosed) or older style where the circuit board in visible? You help us and we'll try to help you. Hope this helps

whole thing

I have a detailed diagram of the hydraulic section so should be able to identify it. The individual part looks like it is part of Water Control 10 litrs/min Combi SE 100 - Part No.01305290.00 A photo of the part of the boiler you have taken it from would help. Does it come from out of...

I very much doubt the gas valve is available. What is the GC number?

Keep the boiler. I would not jump straight to changing the PCB. You describe it locking out on ignition. I would check the ignition electrode, the gas pressures etc before even thinking about changing the PCB. The 'engineer' seems to be more of an installer The money you would spend...

I would get this checked by a Gas Safe Engineer as soon as possible and advise that you do not use that appliance until then. Could just be some water that has its way in or moisture condensing in the flue. Could also be leaking POC's/Fumes into the loft space. Personally I check the...

My 'Y' registered Berlingo Multispace has an intermittent fault light. The warning lamp for brakes lights up occasionally with a beep sound. This seems to occur when the engine is first started. The lamp will then go out. Sometimes the light and sound will occur after I have applied the...

Don't know a great deal about unvented. But aren't the temp/pressure relief valves set at +90 degrees. Is it actually that hot?? That has always made me think that most of the time it is the pressure that causes the fault. I am as much asking a question as trying to assist

In the summer I don't even time mine to come on in the the afternoon. We all shower in the morning. It is timed to come on 1/2 hr before we get up, just 1.5 hr in total. Unvented cylinders are very well insulated. We still have hot water at 10pm. If we do use it up I just advance it...

We do on some of the bigger Keston system I see....... sorry SM its.... ...commercial. .....some odd Eastern European make not service listed. .......its another Diplomat.... so offered 1* and they declined.
