Hi
I've recently had a Glow-work Cxi 30 installed and have had a couple of problems that the installer doesn't seem to be able to rectify.
Firstly, when you turn off the cold tap, the boiler starts up. It doesn't actually fire up, just primes itself. I was told it could be due to a 'dead leg'. The installer fitted a PRV, which didn't help.
Secondly, the boiler will randomly start up. When it does, it displays the temperature which increases until around 70, when it eventually stops. The installer claims the boiler has some sort of internal storage and that the boiler is maintaining the temperature of the water.
The installer has also said that he is going to try fitting some sort of value which will divert the pressure through a membrane so the boiler doesn't sense the pressure drop, which is apparently why it starts up when you turn off the tap.
Also, I thought that the whole point of this type of boiler was so it provided on demand hot water without the need for storage?!
Any help would be really appreciated.
Many thanks
Jules
