    Apollo 40 Banging and cutting out

    Again Martin it could well be a blockage but would be unusual that everything worked for 20 mins. If the cold feed was blocked and the systems got no head then usually you wont get anything but banging from the outset. If he comes to change the pump ask him to check for a blocked cold feed...

    Satchwell valve wiring help please -SOLVED

    You need to be looking at option 2 However if you are going to all the trouble for a crappy old valve why not just replace it with a new spring return valve which will last alot longer. Infact why not get someone in and have the system sorted so you can get independant control of both...

    ravenheat rsf820/20 combi

    I agree with Corgiman. probably find water is peeing from DHW connections on h/ex and then dripping onto the board. Either that or the relay is stuffed and has now turned into a blob of molten plastic also stuffing the board and the connector behind it. I have a board and a set of new...
