Just realised that we've had no hot water all day.
Boiler is a Potterton Kingifsher II, CF80 pretty old (probly 10yrs+).
Pilot is lit, pump working but the main burner part doesn't appear to be firing at all. Have watched for about 20 mins but it's not cycling on and off or anything.
Tried turning on CH as well to see if that would kick it into life, but it didn't work. Also tried turning up the thermostat on the boiler but it had no effect. Checked for any obvious air locks in the system but all seems OK.
Not had any problems in the last 5 years. Nobody has messed around with it, or changed anything in the system and it was serviced late last year.
Can anyone suggest what might be wrong? Are parts still available for these boilers? I'm planning to have a whole new boiler installation when my extension is built and I really don't want to be buying a new boiler now.
I'm not going to be doing anything on this mysefl but I would like to have some background info before I call somebody out tomorrow.
Thanks in advance.
Matt
