Update: (if it helps others) - Engineer attended, fully checked boiler inc. diverter valve, gas pressure, measured flow and temperatures etc etc, gave it a service and cleaned burners etc etc. Stated there was nothing wrong and all was in working order. Stated that in this area a combimate...

Up here = Newcastle area so Kevplumb probably has an idea of the water type as he's from down the road. If it is the exchanger scaled up I'll probably go for one because any scale will have accumulated in only 15 months.

Decided to err on the side of caution and book a Corgi engineer for next Thursday. Will post any diagnosis in the event it might help anyone in the future. Also going to ask about supply/install of a Combimate unless I'm told they are a complete waste of time. Thanks for help

That'll be the competent person then, as I wouldn't know how to do that. Have also started to look into those electronic water softener things: http://www.waterimp.co.uk/waterimps.html http://www.emwc.uk.com/Details.asp?ProductID=86 as they may help in the long run. Are there any...

Hi, Have just stuck the CH back on and pressure in my Baxi 105e condensing wall mounted combi is running at 3 bar. Specified operating level in no more than 2.5 bar. I know how to increase the pressure with the braided valves underneath, but how do I bleed some off to fit within the safe...

yeah, my fault,..........sorry. going to be adding an extra bathroom as well in the loft conversion, so a set of taps , bath and shower in the first floor bathroom, and a set of taps and a shower in the loft bathroom. so two bathrooms............I like the sound of a combi storage boiler.

Will soon be converting 3 bed semi in hard water area to a four bed, by way of a loft conversion. Currently have a huge, old but reliable ideal floor mounted boiler in the kitchen, storage tank in airing cupboard on first floor, and all the smaller header tanks etc in the loft. I want to fit a...
