Hello, I have a Baxi combi boiler and I'm having problems with the hot water. When the heating is on I have no problem and can get hot water but at other times it is very hit and miss. As well when I am running the tap at a low flow I can get hot water. I have been told that this is probably...

Hi. Over the past couple of months the hot water system in my house has started making an incredibly loud reverberation when a hot water tap is opened. I would liken it to the sound of a ruler being twanged on a desk. It is very loud and fades to silence over a period of about 3 or 4 seconds...

Often the hot water fails to come on in the mornings. It works better in winter for some reason, but doesn't always work then. It can usually but not always be made to work by increasing the central heating thermostat so that the boiler comes on. The boiler is a Vokera Eclipse 226 ESS...
