    Combi cutting out

    The heat exchangers have been descaled. I was talking about the cap in the centre on the end of the pump spindle (motor side) not the bleed valve. Thank you

    Combi cutting out

    The Pump has been stripped and cleaned, heat exchangers cleaned also no sludge or build up etc. Forgot to mention that after the light flashes the boiler shuts down and has to be relighted. have not tested the pump off of the boiler. Whats thermisters? Thanks

    Over heating combi

    I enquired about another pump but they said its not made anymore and the new pumps have got bigger bsp fittings and that there is no reducer available. The pump is a WSP. I can get hold of hydrochloric (35%) and perhaps give the HE a flush. Thanks

    I have not taken out the DHW exchanger. I probably will, so what would be the best thing to flush it through with? Thanks ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Just had a listen to the boiler again while the hot water was running. It sounds like the flow is speeding up then slowing...

    Over heating combi

    I don't think it is a plate type of heat exchanger. Seems to be a row of tubes going back and forth with fins around. The boiler is a radiant RSF 20-24 pilot flame. Thanks

    Water pressure is fine. the pump sounds like its running, although perhaps it may be running slow but I don't know how to check pump speed. I have had the heat exchanger out and it's totally clear. Cleaned the pump head. Changed the diverter valve cartridge because it was sticking. There is a...
