boiler

Hey everyone, first time posting here but I am completely at a loss - looked through lots of the other posts and they all cover parts of my problem, but not the whole thing! I bought a Hive dual channel as I incorrectly thought that's what I needed - turns out I only needed a single channel...

Hi, I’m new so apologies if this has been asked/resolved before. I had an engineer install my Hive Heating System yesterday, however, when I try to control the heating from the app or thermostat the receiver clicks on but it does not fire up the boiler. All the lights etc area solid green...

Hi, I have a Turbomax Pro 28E that is not turning on the heating, I am assuming that this is a wiring is as recently I removed an old thermostat receiver as when we moved into the house there were no controls for it, as such I tried to install a Nest E that I could not get to work. Since then...

Hello. So I’ve recently moved into a 1900’s terraced house with a loft conversion from 2001. The shower in the loft is either scorching hot or Luke warm. It also had problems with being jammed stuck until I loosened it with WD40. However, as it’s the loft, it’s not a priority (I imagine a...

Range rating a boiler means adjusting its output to more closely match the heat requirements of a property, while on the other hand boiler modulation also reduces the output of the boiler to match the heat requirement of the property, as it gets close to its desired temperature. Range rating...

I have had Viessman Vitoden 200 for ~6 years. Have had almost no issues with it, works brilliantly. However the central heating has stopped working in the last couple of weeks. The boiler seems fine, no fault code, green light, hot water good etc. The only problem I can actually see is that the...

Hello, I have a sangamo water heater unit, the clock is not turning. I can hear the clock ticking however it does not turn. There is mains power since when I rotate the clock manually the water heater turns on. Any idea why the clock is not turning? Thanks. Sangamo Quartz 7 Economy

My boiler is currently powered by a switched fused spur. The spur is located 40cm underneath the boiler. I haven't checked but it is probably a 3A fuse. My boiler is an Ideal Logic combi ESP1 35 : https://idealheating.com/uploads/documents/logic-combi-esp1-installation-and-servicing.pdf I would...

Hi peeps, Problem with my boiler. Bit long-winded but to explain: I have a Grant Vortex Pro external oil fired boiler. It is about three years old and has been running perfectly fine until now, regularly serviced and In great condition. I was away for a few weeks and turned off all the power to...

Hi - wonder if someone can give me an opinion. I am undecided whether I should pay thousands for a repair, or whether I'm just being scammed. In short - I have a solar-powered hot water system (hot solar fluid gets piped through the inside of an unvented water cylinder). When the water from the...

Hi there, we would really appreciate some advice! We are looking to get a new shower for our bathroom. Our boiler is the "Valiant ecoTEC pro 28". Does anyone know if the "MIRA EVENT XS REAR-FED WHITE THERMOSTATIC POWER SHOWER" would be compatible with our boiler? This Mira shower says the...

Hi all, Moved into a property earlier this year and noticed a really strong vibrating sound coming from the cylinder room on the top floor. It happens for maybe 4-5 seconds in the morning when we're drawing hot water for the first time. Usually notice it when one of us has a shower in the...

I have a Viessmann Vitodens 100 WB1B without the combi plus. Currently it is throwing an FF error. This happens after 3 tries on its own to start up. It gets through the first few steps, I hear what sounds like an ignition (like when you turn your gas stove on) but it does not hit the step where...

I'm getting a new boiler (oil). Current set up is traditional vented, expansion tank in the loft etc. I was assuming I would just replace like for like - i.e. get a new regular/heat only boiler, and leave the rest as is. One plumber has suggested I put in a system boiler instead and ditch the...

Hello all, I couldn’t find this anywhere in the forum. I’ve just moved house and there’s an empty space in the kitchen where a range cooker would go. The house has a boiler too. I’ve not seen a gas line fixture that looks like this before, had the previous resident had it cut and sealed off or...

Hi folks. Looking for some guidance please. My Vokera boiler fan is running constantly 24/7 even with heating switched off at both boiler and Hive thermostat, and, boiler set to hot water only. Tried reset as per guidelines for this boiler, but made no difference. Switched off boiler a few...

Hi I'm obtaining a few quotes from different local plumbers. Do I need an expansion tank for the heating if the hot water cylinder has internal expansion and does not require one ? I’m looking at having an Ideal Logic Max Heat only 24kw boiler fitted to replace my existing one and a Halo...

Hi Does anyone have any experience of the Ideal Logic Max Heat or the Ideal Logic+ Heat boilers. My plumber says he fits Ideal and needs to be a Heat only one due to less pipe work changes needed ? Any advice appreciated, thanks.

I currently have a Glow Worm Flexicom 24hx condensing boiler (13 years old) on the ground floor and a water tank and vented expansion tank in the loft. My home is a detached chalet style bungalow, ground floor and first floor with a small loft area above. It has 4 bedrooms with around 15...

Just added some rads to the system and when I went out to check the external boiler it was sitting in a puddle of water. I realized we must have over-pressurized the system. However when I look inside and the plumber has installed the pressure release pipe inside the boiler. As such when the...
