Hi
I have a Puma 80e boiler which over the last week had been making an intermittent hissing noise.
The noise got more frequent so that everytime I was in the kitchen I would hear it and it seemed to happen whether the boiler had just been used or not. So I decided I didn't want to leave it on whilst at work and turned it off.
This evening I put the boiler back on to do the washing up and to have a bath and as soon as the boiler was on it started to make a much louder hissing noise which sounded more like an electrical crackling noise.
I turned on the water, the boiler had trouble firing and locked out despite pressure being ok and the noise continued.
I then smelt burning from under the sink and have turned the whole thing off.
Does this sound fixable or is it a new boiler job?
