Hello i am having a bit of trouble with my combi Sabre boiler, it seems to be this time every year there is a problem. I have had the boiler for around 7 years now!
Last week i had lost hot water although the heating was working fine. Whenever i ran the hot water the boiler stopped! My friend who is a gasman, came round last night to have a look but the hot water was running as normal again. He said it may be a flow switch problem. After he left the boiler worked for an a hour or so then a still red light came on and locked me out of the boiler. I also seem to have a leak from my boiler, could this cause these problems? Is the red light due to needing new sensors ? And finally my pressure has always been bad since theboiler was installed, seems to always fall below 0.5 and i have to top it up majority of the time to 1 then when the heating is switched on it rises to just under 2.
As long as i can get even a short term fix for over winter that would great, as i think a new boiler will be on list of my things to get next year!
