I really can't figure out why people are recommending these boilers. I've been to more "just out of guarantee" baxi's than i have any other boiler. Baxi have never managed to get the combi right yet, look at the bahama for god's sake!

operate the lever of the servo manually (without opening a hot tap) when you let go see if it returns to normal and operates the microswiches on the diverter valve. If it doesn't then renew the servo, if it does then the servo's alright and the problem is with the pin and stuffing box on the...

god, i've had enough of this. your boiler isn't "boiling" the stat isn't "faulty" either. if they were your bathroom would resemble a steam room when you ran a bath. your posts wouldn't be complaining about noise but about the heat of your hot water. the noise you can hear is kettling, it's an...

The cheapest condensing combi has got to be the Ariston ACO, not on purchase price but on running costs. Can't say I'm a huge fan of Ariston boilers but this boiler comes with a 5yr guarantee. Given that most boiler manufacturers only expect their condensing combis to last only 5yrs this sounds...

well, you can find out it's actual age by removing the front panel and looking at the data plate on the back of the panel. I'm also assuming you mean an Optima 201, I've never come across a"200". As for an "unsafe" sticker being put on, well that's down to the discretion of the attending...

so what have you got on your back as a replacement?

you need to know if gas is coming through even if it isn't sparking. If gas is coming through then it could be your spark generator.

it's not your primary thermistor then if your lock out lights coming on.

primary thermistor (right hand 3/4 pipe, green sensor) common problem on the csi's.

you can't recondition a fan because they spin at such high rpm they need to be balanced like a car wheel. If you look at a new fan you'll see little semicircle bites out of or sometimes holes in the blades and little clips attached to the blades, thus taking away or adding weight to blades to...

re-connect the electric supply but this time don't reverse the polarity.

see that pozidrive screw on top of the bracket holding the 2 solenoids in place? wait until it starts to buzz and then crack that screw back a tiny bit.

all old pumps? with stuck on fibre washers??

are you sure it's not a model "t" ford you're talking about? Foot on the choke????

is it?

primary microswitch is not making because the manifold in front of the diverter is full of **** at the bend where the downpipe/thermostat phial meet

About £45 :D

when you switch the boiler on for central heating does the fan go from slow speed to high speed? If it does take the 2 bottom left hand screws out of the combustion cover and ease the cover forward, does the boiler now fire? If it does than you have restricted fan venturi. if it doesn't can you...

stuck in dhw?
