    Solar panels,wind turbines and heat pumps

    Can you solve my Vaillant combi boiler problem, Sherlock?

    Grimly The diaphragm on your water section is knackered.It can be replaced providing the screws on the water section undo.Also change stuffing box as well.Your diverter valve is fine. The diaphragm has been the underlying fault all along.You`ve needed a far to high a flow rate to get...

    Can you solve my Vaillant combi boiler problem, Sherlock?

    boiler kettling on hot water

    you need to get dhw ntc checked to see if boiler modulates when stat turned down.Also get burner pressure checked as if way out can cause localised hot spots in heat exchanger breaking away bits of the primary h/exchanger reulting in noise-ie kettling.

    Can you solve my Vaillant combi boiler problem, Sherlock?

    Grimly Things to check 1 Flow rate at tap. The new h/exchanger may be less restrictive than older model so give higher flow rate.I also doubt if your engineer changed the inside of the diverter valve and attended to mod to pcb.hopefully he did. 2 Gas pressure at burner...

    No Hot Water - Ferroli Medone 80E

    If the little led for the dhw does not come on then the first check is the dhw flowswitch and the filter into it. They do fail. I`ve even had new one`s straight out the box faulty. The switch can be stripped down and the shaft of the wheel greased. Paul
