Hi everyone
I wonder if any off you can help me. I have an Ideal Europa 24 combi boiler. A standard pressurised system.
The faults are that the radiators will only get luke warm. Some will stay cold some will heat up and it can be quite random as to which does what.
I have read many forums on here and followed procedures that have been recommended. Very useful but alas not solving the problem.
This is what I have done to date.
New expansion vessel
New pump
New automatic air vent
All radiators removed and flushed
currently circulating a cleaning agent through the system.
Fitted a drain/flush valve at the lowest point (wasn't one)
Have bled all radiators (with TVR's off and on )
checked all TVR's are working correctly.
One thing I am noticing is that the pressure gauge which is set at approx 1 bar is not increasing as the boiler heats up when the CH is on. I'd expect it to rise by half a bar as the water expands in the system.
Boiler fires up ok has about a 30 secs fire up 2 mins rest cycle. I assume this is normal !
Hot water is spot on. And if all but one radiator is closed down they will all get hot individually.
Any advice greatly received.
