Hello, been reading around the forums for a few hours about what this could be but i can't put my finger on it. We have an excell 80e boiler which came with the house we bought - i think its over 1 years old now. Over the years have found it likes to eat diaphragms but on the whole is very reliable.
However, it has always had a problem keeping the domestic hot water temperature correct, infact it often gets scalding hot despite the temperature dial being set to minimum... i'm not sure if it's a sensor or the heat exchanger after looking at other posts.
Also noticed when i open the hot tap, boiler fires up and starts to heat the water, but the flow of water 'slows' a bit.
Boiler's pressure seems ok, stays at 1 bar, other thing I noticed based on previous posts is that the temp dial reaches about 55 degrees and then the boiler cuts out - shouldn't it go to a low flame?
