hi ive got an alpha cb50 boile and my heating and hot water keeps going off it will relight for anywhere between 10 mins and an hour then cut out again
i did the right thing and called a plumber because as you will be able to tell i know nothing about boilers (or any diy for that matter) the guy is a vallient specialist and seems to know his stuff. He has also rung alpha helpline for advice
and so far he has changed the diverter valve the primary heat themestat the heat sensor (the one to the left and underneth of the primary) also the main board (cb board ithink its called) also checked the water in the system which is clean as a whistle and had inhibitor in it but he has put some flush through stuff in the system anyway just in case of any blockages but still no joy. the trouble is it seems everytime he fits something it fires up and seems to be ok but 30mins later it starts playing up. So far ive spent £500 and am no better off i am deserate to get this fixed as i have 4 kids and its no joke playing whos gona be lucky enough to get a shower this morning game. this has go on for over 3 weeks now.
can someone with alpha experience please advise it would be mush appreciated
ps the boiler is about 6 years old if this helps
regards john
