Hi
Just moved into a new house and it has a condensing boiler system. The actual boiler is a Baxi in the kithchen with a flu to the outside and the water tank and expansion tank is upstairs in a seperate cupboard. I have a few questions regarding this system as there are certain things that dont seem to be fucnctioning correctly. I will be getting someone to look at the system but id love some opinions first so i am atleast informed.
1, When i set the water and heating to 'on' the radiators only get mildly warm for the first 45 minutes or so.......almost like the system is proritising the water tank. Is this how the system works??
2, Their is one radiator in the living room which only gets warm at the top, the bottom is cold. Bleeding the rad makes no difference. This radiator is probably the furthest away on the system if this makes a difference. Any idea's?
3, The system when set to 'off' on the controller for both water and heating will fire up the boiler every ten minutes or so for a minute before going back off. I haven't had chance to look at the manual yet but is this usual? i.e, some kind of frost protection etc?
Thanks for any interest.
