My boiler - a 15 year old Ideal FF350 - has been starting to play up: When it starts up the pilot light will ignite with a loud click, then take a long time to start the main burners, before switching off after 90 seconds or so. After another 90 seconds the sequence will start again and again...

Hi there, I am hoping that one of you lovely folk can help me with some general i formation and advice regarding an old Ideal Mexico floor standing boiler please. We are interested in purchasing a house and in the old fireplace space in the kitchen is one of the boilers. Judging by the font...

Hi all woke up today and noticed there was a pool of water underneath the boiler. Not this again we had a cracked sump changed 18 months ago Right just took the cover off and i can't see any hairline cracks around the sump any ideas? You can see where the waters dripping out the condensate trap?

Hi. Following a mains trip my 10 year old boiler died. After doing lots of research I bought a new orange pcb and adjusted the links to match the previous pcb (also orange). The user control panel (secondary pcb?) does not light up in any way. There are link pins inside but no links. I'd be very...

Hi folks, My boiler has developed a problem: It's always on. With the thermostat turned to cold the boiler is on and running, all radiators are hot. With the controller switched off the boiler is on. With the controller totally removed the boiler is on. It's a Danfoss FP7801 controller but...

Hi, We bought a new Barratt Home in 2007 and haven't modified the boiler or its boxing since then however today an engineer has refused to service it saying its boxing and exposed pipe is illegal (boxing above boiler and pipe to side - photo attached). The boiler has been serviced each year...

Have a Ideal Logic 30 (Combi Boiler) with "PCB Fault" on screen (photo below). No hot water for anything. Manual gives no indication. Photo of serial number below. Anyone ideas? I gather the "1304" means it was manufactured in 2013 on the 4th week of the year.

I moved into a 1980's house a few weeks ago. The house has a Ideal Heat 30 boiler in kitchen with cylinder in airing cupboard and tanks in loft. Under boiler there are 3 motorized valves, 2 for heating and 1 for HW. The 2 heating valves are wired together into stat (as there arent seperate zones...

Boiler has developed this fault over the summer. Worked fine when CHS was on back in the Spring. Pressure is 1.5 All valves are open - pointing up Set to winter mode. Boiler fires up but after a couple of minutes stop and displays pump overrun. No error messages. Immediately under the boiler...

This question has come up before in this forum but my setup seems different. Can anyone please help? How do I go about repressurising my C24? Images attached. Thank you.

Hi all, We've just moved house from a small place with a combi, to a place with a cylinder system. This type of system is all new to me, so apologies for asking any obvious questions! Firstly, does anyone by chance know the approximate age of an Ideal Classic RS Room Sealed boiler? Corgi Home...

I have an Ideal iStor HE260 and have just purchased a 3rd gen Nest Thermostat. However, I'm a little confused as to whether the nest can control my boiler's hot water. The Nest documentation (and customer services) state that the Nest cannot control DHW on combi boilers. However, my...

Need help first ever problem with my Ideal Isar HE24 (installed 2009);Im sure most most people will be surprised. Water leaks only when the Central heating is ON and its only a slight drip leak- just above the PCB rightside where the wiring harness comes out off the black round rings. Iv Added...

Hi, I've just replaced the pcb on our old icos he18 boiler and now its blowing the 2amp quick blow fuse in wiring centre (not the fuse in the Pcb). We tested fan resistance before changing and harness for earth leak/cross continuity. The PCB was replaced because the boiler was completely dead...

Hi everyone i realise this is an old thread but I have a similar issue....my combo goes on and off every few seconds....i have got 1.5 water pressure and I have already taken off the heat exchanger and cleaned it...when I set the boiler to just DHW nothing at all happens....when i set it...

Hi, Merry Christmas to all. I hope I can enlist the help of some of the kind experts who read these pages. If this post seems familiar I posted something similar a few weeks ago about connecting my boiler to a Hive system. I am now in the process of swapping the Hive for a Nest 3 so my...

Hi, I hope I can enlist the help of some of the kind experts who read these pages. I have bought a Hive 2 Active Heating system to connect to my Ideal Logic Combi 24. I thought it might be a relatively easy matter as the system is already fitted with a wireless system in the form of the...

Hi all, I'm having trouble with our Ideal Icos HE24 boiler at home as it appears to be short cycling. Going to try and keep this concise but there's a bit of a back story so here goes: The boiler was installed as part of a new-build property in 2006 and broke down in 2014. Ideal came out to...

Hi, the water pressure on my ideal Independent C24 boiler had dropped to about 0.5 and so we have low pressure and intermittent hot water. This happened about a year ago and I managed to fix it by following a thread on here but I have no idea how I did it and haven't been able to find a thread...

Have an ideal icos boiler. When its been on for 10 mins or there abouts. It begins to hum quite loud as you can hear it from other rooms. After its hum for 10 to 20 mins it goes quiet again. Thinking its the fan? Is it dangerous to run like this? And is there an easier fix than replacing the...
