hot water was running hot and cold ..just had Vokera engineer here for 3 hours ...now he has gone and the hot water is now running into the radiators ,even though the central heating is switched off.The engineer replaced a few parts ,but my boiler is still faulty ..Anyone any ideas why ,when I run the hot tap ,it heats the radiators ..
thanks

Thanks for reply . If he didnt fix it properly in 3 hours ,do you think he will know what to do when I get him back out...Do you know what the problem might be ?
thanks

Ring 'em and ask for a different engineer!

One answer that comes to mind is, he has 'manipulated' certain boiler components to 'tell' the boiler you are looking for hot water

I hope you did not pay him. I assume you checked his registration credentials

Vokera ,have to pay up front ....he is coming back on Friday ,but if he hasnt been able to fix it ,or left it like this ,i dont know if he will get it right this time ...
He is only vokera engineer in this area .
Does anyone think they know the answer to the hot water running into the central heating ,even though the CH is switched off.
Tried running the hot tap when the C HEATING on , the water was scorching red hot...
Any ideas ,
Thanks

and what is wrong with vokera eh?

which vokera is it? sounds like a diverter valve problem or a dirty heat exchanger

Thanks for reply ,the boiler is excel sp 80 ...the vokera engineer took the domestic heat exchanger out and flushed it ,but nothing in it ,put it back on

ok well then i would consider the diverter valve to be the problem, he should have checked this before leaving tho and would question his ability.
