I have an ecomax in my home that has started playing up and not delivering hot water to the bath or basin upstairs in the bathroom.
In the kitchen the water runs hot but go up and turn the basin tap on and it will run scalding hot then get cold, the bath lukewarm if you are lucky.

HELLO ALL,
WHENEVER THIS BOILER STARTS FROM COLD IT "POPS", "BANGS", AND "MOANS".
IT ONLY APPEARS TO DO THIS WHEN HOT WATER IS SELECTED AS WELL AS HEATING. - THE HOTWATER OUTLET IS CONNECTED TO A MEGAFLOW CYLINDER VIA A MOTORISED VALVE AS WELL AS DIRECT HOT TAP FLOW.

My Vaillaint ecoMAX boiler makes a loud "fog horn noise" for 10-20 seconds each time it fires up. Service engineer says might be vertical flue but not convinced. When he serviced boiler recently he said it's not fan or other internal parts that causes it. Anyone got any better ideas?

Our Valliant ecoMax condensing boiler has started to make a whining fog horn type noise each time it kicks in (i.e. calls for gas for CH). Noise seems to be coming from around the internal pump area. It lasts about 30 econds then stops - like it's clearing its throat for the next heating spurt...

Looked at the sticky for boiler manuals on here but Vaillant doesnt list many. The boiler doesn't show much info on itself but its about 2 years old apparently and about 2ft square.
All it shows are the numbers 18e and 28e?
Some old instructions say ecotec AND ecomax pro on them which isnt...

I had a new EcoMAX 622/E condensing boiler installed about 3 years ago and it has worked well until now, only needing to be filled up now and then. Hot water storage is in a Santon pressurised cylinder.
