Hi thanks in advance fire any help. My 20 year old firebird 90 boiler has run really well with only one control box and one photo cell changed 3 years ago. 3 weeks ago it started to flame out when trying to ignite when hot so I decided it needed its first proper service as I have done it...

Hi, I recently moved to a property with an ancient Firebird Olympic 50-82. It's developed a fault where on start up the fan motor runs continuously but the burner will not proceed to ignition. It will stay in this condition until you turn it off and it does not enter lock out - the fan just...

I've always just assumed that the colder the return to the boiler the more efficient the boiler would be (i.e. greater differential so heat transfer through manifold is faster). But I've come across direct evidence to the contrary (e.g. boiler recommends minimum 60 degree return, 'hearth' temp...

Hi forum I would like a little advice. just bought a house and all it has to control the heating is a dial-based unit in the corner of the kitchen. there is no thermostat (other than the throughput on one the oil-burner itself out in the garage). So with no thermostat in the house, and just...
