We have a Boilermate II FE200 fed from a new Worcester Bosch boiler.
Pumps are new.
We can get hot water but not heating.
Whilst the pipe from the boiler to the boilermate is hot , the pipe back out to the boiler is cool, the pipe leading to the central heating pump gets hot only if CH is off for an hour. When CH cuts in, hot water flows for a couple of mins then cools down.
Had 3 heating engineers round, their best guess is that the problem is caused by scale and the soultion is to replace the Boilermate.
Q1. Is there another explanation for the problem?
Q2. If it is scale, can it be de-scaled ?
