    Triton rapide 3+ shower help

    anybody any ideas please, went for a shower this morning and the thing wouldn't work, power supply on but registered as no water pressure, checked the header tank, that's fine, tried different settings but no luck.

    boiler fires for hot water but not for heating system

    Thanks mystery man just had a look at the motor to see if I can work out whether its a later model as you described. It appears to be the later model, 2 cross head brass screws about 1inch long. If it is a later model would it be safe to remove the motor etc without causing a leak?

    boiler fires for hot water but not for heating system

    Thanks for the tip, looking at the controls to the boiler reminds me of a bowl of sphagetti! I, ll start with the thermostat and then try and work through it all, the 3 port valve has given problems in the past, the contractors burst a water main further down the road (they are doing every house...
