    Baxi condenser boiler cutting in and out

    I have a Baxi Barcelona condenser boiler (yes it's 21 years old and yes this model has issues). Mine has been largely reliable and had a new pump in 2020; it is not leaking and holds pressure and we always have hot water for taps and heating. It's currently going through phases where the...

    Boiler cutting out - no hot water but heating OK

    I have a Baxi Barcelona condenser boiler. It was working fine, apart from leaking flow and return isolator valves after he changed the EV and PRV. My plumber changed these (not a full drain down but wait for a vacuum to be created - it's an unvented megaflo system). Then after a couple of days...

    Who is correct - my plumber or the water softener engineer?

    Hi - I'm seeking some impartial opinion on whether a fault with my water softener has been caused by a faulty part or whether it has been caused by my plumbing system. To cut a long story short, my house is 5 years old and has a pressurised water system with a Megaflo. My incoming water...
