Following from a previous thread, my next door neighbor has got his boiler working again after his flue problems. (he's just moved in)
He's been back at my door asking about the operation when on hot water, I went and had a look this evening (I'm not GS so didn't open anything up, my boss is GS so I do have some knowledge)
Anyway, when the hot water is run at the bath the boiler fires up as it should, the water gets really hot then begins to cool down (not cold though)
I went and had a look at the boiler when the bath tap was running and the flame disappears completely for say 10/15 seconds then fires up again, this sequence seems to continue until there is no H/W demand.
Is this a normal sequence of events for this boiler.
I did ask my gaffer but he didn't have a good word to say about the boiler and more or less said rip it out !!
