Thanks for your last mail, I'll pass your thoughts on to my father. We certainly wouldn't attempt anything ourselves that is risky. I will find-out about the servicing history. I am asking these questions because we have already spent money on engineer time but it is still broke. We are...

Thanks for the reply, what I didn't make clear is that it does it for hot water AND Central heating. After the initial hour or two of good operation, it starts to play up. When it starts to go wrong it will keep going wrong every couple of minutes, vis runs for a minute or two then the gas...

I have re-posted this because what I said last time was inaccurate. My dad has a three and a half year old gas boiler (Halstead Best db 50 a.k.a. Wickes LW50ci). He has spent a lot of money on engineer call-outs but has yet to overcome the problem. Today we did some simple testing. We...
