    Worcester Bosch combi timer issue

    I have a WB combi boiler. We never use the timer which is the mechanical type on the lower front of the boiler but have it set to constant and use room sat to turn it on and off when required. This method of use suits us well. I noticed recently that the constant setting has stopped working and...

    Room thermostat advise please

    I don't know. It's a WB combi boiler, quite recent. I think it's 2 wires and basically operates as on/off.

    Room thermostat advise please

    I have a combi boiler central heating system (Worcester Bosch). The room stat is in the hall way, not ideal you may think, but we have a log burner in the lounge and the hall is centrally located so is a reasonable place for it given the house layout. At the moment I have Honywell digital...

    Which side for a bleed valve.

    Just an update. Damn and blast. The room this radiator is in we have a log burner so I haven't even filled this rad until today. And somewhere along the way I have miscalculated and the feed is the wrong side ie below the bleed valve not above it. So I rang technical support and enquired why...

    Which side for a bleed valve.

    Just to close this I traced the pipes and as luck would have it it was connected as per the fitting recommendations is bleed valve opposite feed. I did the lottery and wasn't so lucky. I think Stoney Ground had the answer so thanks especially to you and all that bothered to reply.

    raven heat

    What's happening at the boiler. Is it trying to start but failing to fire or cycling through the start up over and over. I had a Ravenheat and had to frequently remove the pilot jet and blow it clean and refit. Also the wire to the spark gap may need changing even if it's sparking well as it...

    Which side for a bleed valve.

    The bleed valve is fixed on one side and you can't change it or fit one the other side. I have found out the feed and am in the process of tracing it to the rad. I want to sort it prior to filling it. The boiler is in the garage and the pipe to the radiator goes through the wall into the...

    Which side for a bleed valve.

    I can't recall exactly but I think this is a a acova. It states in the installation notes 'Very important. When connecting the pipe work to the radiator the water MUST enter the radiator at the bottom corner diagonally opposite the air vent and exit at the bottom corner below the air vent'

    Which side for a bleed valve.

    It's not a towel rad but an old fashioned one like the old ones in schools etc

    Which side for a bleed valve.

    I am replacing a standard radiator on a combi boiler central heating system with a modern reproduction of an old style 4 column radiator. It states that the bleed valve MUST be on the side opposite the feed but most advise I can find states it doesn't matter. I don't know yet which side is which...
