well, following on from last thread i posted, we now have a nice shiny brand new boiler! but now the hot water cylinder is giving some grief. the central heating system is boiler plus hot water tank with immersion and for the past 5 years we've just had the immersion on 24/7 as when we bought the house there seemed to be a prob with the diverter valve.
Now, with new boiler and what i thought would cure the prob of the diverter valve a new valve, the hot water via boiler still won't work and the guys say the return pipe? from the cylinder is blocked. They say we prob need a new cylinder. the existing cylinder is about 23 yrs old so is it like our 23yr old boiler was? ie hanging on for grim death and do they block up like this?
Just need some pointers if possible before i fork out another load of dosh that i don't have
