    Combi boiler heating rads even though room stat turned down

    Change the frquency on the controller and the receiver, sounds like something else is interfering with it. Possibly a neighbour has a similar controller.

    Pipes to radiator bent?

    It sounds like the rads need replacing, although you can't do a full thorough power flush in one day. The chemicals need to be added at least a week before the flush. However, some rads can be too knacked to clean through on a flush. You might have been better paying for some new radiators...

    Which? scores on most reliable boiler

    I don't fully agree regarding the opinions of WB and Vokera, although I am not disputing anyone elses opinion. Over the years I have been to and repaired far far more Vokeras than i have Worcesters. The parts are generally more expensive also. I also do not, and can't understand why this...

    vokera synegi 28e - constant intermittent d1 code

    a good % of boilers have 15mm connections for the gas pipe, however, the issue is as has already been pointed out that the important detail is whether the working pressure at the boiler is correct (with other appliances running if applicable). It may be that the 15mm gad pipe is 22mm out of...

    vokera synegi 28e - constant intermittent d1 code

    I had the same problem once with one of these. Thankfully I only changed the the burner thermostat before being advised to check the burner pressures. Minimum burner pressure was slightly out so adjusted it. These are very detrimental on this **** boiler. Worked fine after these set...

    Ideal Mexico Super CF55 fires for short time only

    you wouldn't even get water out of the taps if the tank had run dry. Either the pump is knacked or the zone valve is. on the cylinder there will be two pipes on one side, one about half way down and another directly below but near the bottom, check to see if they get hot when the boiler is on...

    How to get a replacement Corgi certificate?

    I think there is confusion over whether this is actually a legal requirement or not. If you speak with estate agents they will tell you it isn't. I see no reason at all that the buyers would require this document ? How many people will actually still have the certificate from when it was...

    Central heating thermostat advice

    Yes you can use those existing wires. The red is live, yellow is switch live and blue is neutral. When you wire the receiver use the red as live but also put a link wire between said live and the remaining switch position. Simples although not technically the correct way to do it because...

    Flue heat recovery unit on a sealed system boiler?

    I'm not sure I understand how that could possibly work. On a normal vented cylinder the water would have to go through the heat revovery unit after leaving the header tank but before it reaches the bottom of the cylinder right ? Is that your thinking on it ? if that is your thinking then the...

    Flue heat recovery unit on a sealed system boiler?

    As far as I'm aware, although I may be wrong, the idea of them is to increase the heat of the cold feed water into the boiler by roughly 3 degrees or so and consequently reduce gas consumption on hot water demand only.

    Thats **** lol. Just another thing to bare in mind if the incoming is only .6 bar.....how do you expect to fill the heating system to the required pressure ?

    Under sink heater

    Are you sure it's a 6 bar prv and not a 3 bar ? It doesn't necessarily need an expansion vessel, baring in mind it's bern fine up until recently. Put a pressure reducing valve on it to limit the incoming mains pressure especially as it has no relevance to the hot water.

    Combi - time for HW to reach taps

    Surely the quickest way to get "heated"water to the tap is to run the tap on full to clear the standing cold water in the run from the boiler to said tap ?! Granted the faster the flow of the water, the cooler the water will be so I'm going to throw it out there that the the boiler KWage has...
