We have a Worcester Bosch 240 Combi installed 12 years ago.It has had light use as we don't use ut to run baths (we have a shower before you ask) and a really well insulated house so it retains the heat
It has been reliable until about 1 month ago when it started tripping the reset switch - no problem as we have Cover from a major UK gas company
To cut a long story short here's what they've done over numerous visits
1/replaced pressure releif valve - still no difference
2/ replaced loop pipe - still no difference
3/ replaced heat exchange - still no difference
4/replaced sensor to rest switch - still no difference
5/said it was probably scaled up £400 for basic flush - £800 for flush plus some sort of anti scale device - but they couldn't guarantee success
I've declined as I could buy a new boiler for that
Now the boiler makes a rattling/knocking noise and then trips again - they're coming again tomorrow -- can anyone make any suggestions please or is it time for a new boiler
BTW I don't intend to take out a service contract again
