Hi, just after a few ideas before I call out the dreaded plumber or if it is something that I can change myself?
My boiler seems to have done this now and then since installation but very infrequently now it is doing it almost if not every time there is a demand for hot water.
When you turn on the tap (hot or shower normally set to v.hot!) the water always seemed to take a long time to get hot (boiler not set in eco mode) i'm unsure if this is relevent to below problem.
Problem:
Now when you turn the tap or shower on it never gets hot and stays luke warm unless you turn the tap down slightly to 1/4 turn then it comes out so hot you can't even touch it (hot water dial on boiler set to 5)
I've just been into the loft where the boiler is situated and asked my other half to operate the tap on the bath in various states as mentioned above, the burner lights quickly in all cases but when the tap is on full you can hear water bubbling through parts of the boiler (i've not removed the cover so have no idea where about this is coming from)
Hope someone could shed some light I hate cold showers!
Doesn't seem to have any problems with CH.
Thanks in advance
