Hello
Hope somebody can help with this. Our boiler locks out every morning.
We have had a number of plumbers come by to all claim to fix the problem but none return when it stumps them. This problem has come and gone. We had the system powerflushed on the recommendation that it was a circulation problem and now the boiler cuts out in the morning.
We have had the pump overrun stat replaced, the central themostat and replaced the pump. The boiler will work fine all day but in the morning it cuts out. We leave the boiler on all the time and have a programmable thermostat that drops the temperature to 17c at night. We have not replaced the PCB board because we will be replacing the boiler. But since x-mas is here and the guy who was suppose to replace the boiler went MIA as our early x-mas present any suggestions. Given the snow and below 0c conditions we can't fit a new boiler since we need to have a new flue installed which would involve cutting a hole in the roof. Just trying to get us through the next month and not have to wake up at 4am when the house is freezing. Our system is sealer and pressure is at 1.5bar. We have forced open the CH valve thinking that this might allow the overheat problem to move away from the boiler but to no avail.
We have a hot water tank and the system charges the tank at 630am and 5pm. I have tried to fire the hot water channel thinking that this might be the problem and that works fine.
It seems when the system gets cold it doesn't want to work.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks
