I’ve got a Baxi 100 HE Plus that is intermittently locking out. When the reset is pressed the fan starts and I’ve proved there is flow from pump but it does not attempt to ignite and goes into lockout again. If I cycle the power it normally then starts ok. Any ideas ? Cheers

Hi, After really heavy rain our BFT controlled ( Libra-MA-R ) gates no longer open. On inspection I found that inside the control box was wet. But power was there and no fault codes shown. It appears as though the controller is not picking up a signal from any of our remote controls...

Hi, I was wandering if it would be ok to use MDF bullnose skirting ( 25mm thick) as the front/edge of a small step? Once stained and varnished would this material be up to the job ? I don't want to use MDF if people stepping on corner of step will trash it. Thanks in advance.

Hi, Please bare with me I am not an Electrician ! A friend of mine has a marine fish tank that has an electric pump circulating water ( sort of anyway ). It appears that towards the later part of the day the pump pumps more and levels in the tank alter. My question is - do our household...

We have a Baxi 100 he plus which appears to have no power at the boiler ( after a 3 hour power cut ). There is power at the wall mounted timer controller but not one single light is on at the boiler and it does not fire. Unfortunately I am sat at work trying to sort this over the phone with...

Anyone able to tell me what is a realistic radiator surface temperature. There is a lot of talk about rads getting hot enough - but what is hot enough ? Cheers

Hi, It states in my boiler manual that the ideal boiler flow temp is 55c. But I can't seem to find a reliable way to measure this. I have a digital laser thermometer. When I point this at the 22mm copper pipes under the boiler ( the flow and return ) they never read more than 35c yet if I...

Hi, Got a bit carried away in trying to sort the central heating system and took a jumper off the pcb ( on Baxi 100 he plus ). Please could someone tell me where I can get a new one as I think the missus chucked the old one. Cheers, Danny

Hi, Please could some one give me a ball park figure for building a double garage , to include - 2 and half width x 1 and half long Digging and setting foundations. Brick up to 1 metre and then rendered up to top of walls Pitched tiled roof Two up and over doors I know materials...

Hi, If when balancing my rads I find that ALL rads heat up nice and hot with both valves open is this ok ? Or does the flow in radiators NEED to be restricted for any reason? The reason I ask is that when balancing the rads with all valves open all rads are hot apart from one small...

Hi, I have a Baxi system 100 he plus with some overheating problems. On an earlier question it was suggested that there may be a blockage. Should the Flow Return strainer be cleaned out regularly - just wandering if this could be blocked ?

Hi, I have a Baxi system 100he plus which keeps cutting out on overheat. Could any one explain what the flow stat and thermistor does. I am guessing that the stat is a safety cut out ? and the thermistor controls the boiler power relative to the water temp ? I have accepted the fact that I...

I have a Baxi sytem 100 he condensing boiler. Recently it had an ignition problem which was sorted by cleaning the starter electrodes. Now though it keeps locking out on 'overheat'. I have found that the combustion chamber front panel seal was leaking and have replaced the seal but still...

I have a Baxi system 100 he plus with several faults. When heating rads from cold to hot system pressure goes too high. Sometimes it goes to overheat lockout. Occasionally the boiler won't start at all and goes to ignition lockout. I am regularly topping up system pressure. I have checked...

I have a 3 yr old baxi 100he plus. Just recently it has started playing up. If it is starting up from cold it tries to start 3 times whilst making a fast clicking noise, and a couple loud booms and then goes to a fault state. The led fault pattern indicates an 'ignition fault'. But when I...
