Thx , my error

The whole house at some point as had some type of coating applied badly , probably in the 90s. Over time some movement cracks appeared and water ingress made the coating blow and fall off. Builder patched in with render at some point and now I am being asked paint for friend. Question for those...

Just thought i would post an update even though a little embarrassing. So ordered new o rings and was just about to pull whole pump and inlet assembly to remove screw.. I noticed hex was also leaking around one of the seals. On closing up the front control flap i glanced down and saw the...

Tried these from tool box but not enough room to get on the hear of the screw

So had another stab this afternoon after a good dowse of WD40. Found a driver that was as good fit as I could get as it had already been mullered. No joy. So extended a slot out to edge of pan head and got flat blade on angle with light tapping with hammer to knock it round. Still no joy ...

Hi all ,, Recently had an annoying leak on Baxi 105e to rear of pump, think i managed to trace to where pump mounts to inlet assembly. Purchased some o rings and thought esy swap and jobs a good un.. If only that was it.. Lower retaining screw holding pump to inlet assembly is seized solid ...

A little delayed, but final update. So further to above comments tracked down a decent Gase safe engineer. Came out gave the the old baxi a thorough going over checking gas etc . all checked out perfect. Now here is the killer, one thing i have never done was a clean of chamber as didnt want to...

Quick update, remembered I had some extra temp sensors from a fix couple years back. (Memory's not what it used to be) anyway, belt and braces etc, thought I would replace CW and DHW temp sensor to totally rule out. Well , now on call for hot water from cold temp led,s rise gracefully hot water...

Superb, I will ensure to report back , hopefully with resolution . Thanks all especially gas112 and johntheo5 for their time on this topic, very informative. Now to find a good engineer who is willing to take above comments on board and carry on the good work.

Thanks John, I have to be honest you have lost me now.. so feel In short as per gas112 I think it's time to have a expert come in and check gas flows, as from what I see there are no other explanations aside from modulation why I am seeing the issue.

Ok quick update for gas and John. Arrived home this morning and ran sink tap with heat setting dial at 6 o'clock position . Strangely flame stayed constant and lit at a constant 60 degrees. So I took opportunity to leave running and to check gas consumption. Bear with, as learning here . R5 gas...

No not really , with temp control on max (9 o'clock position)if I open kitchen or cloakroom etc fully led,s climb steadily to 70 degrees and with temp in full flame will stay with no cut. If I turn heat control to 6 o'clock position (2 thirds maybe) heat climbs steady to 60 degrees flame cuts...

John , again thx for your input , learnt a thing or two , strangely interesting .. either way experts or other , I will update as things hopefully progress .

Thx gaz much appreciated. New plate hex , thermistor seems to check ok, but maybe failing under load.. very frustrating I must say ..as was working fine up until a couple weeks back..

Ok now I sort of understand where we are. Here is my dilemma. Boiler has been working 100% for last 2 years since last issue. Temp control has been set half way over that period (2 years) . Taps in general and shower are always opened fully , yet now all of a sudden shower goes hot/cold and...

John, a little lost and trying to get my head round your comments, however you mention LPM . My figures are over 30 seconds , so assume X2 which for most part gives 8 LPM .. Apologies if I'm being a tad ignorant and not fully understanding , but assuming LPM is x 2 from my earlier post , how...

Strangely I have never tested with heater control at max . Here's the thing , with heat control at max I tested kitchen sink which was 4ltr at 70 degrees indicated over 30 seconds. Also did cloakroom which is farthest 5ltr again at 70degrees over 30secs . Lastly tried shower with thermostatic...

JOHN, So opened 4 sinks , shower and bath on max flow. Boiler fired and stayed fired .. Think you have something in your method ..
