boiler
A boiler is a closed vessel in which fluid (generally water) is heated. The fluid does not necessarily boil. The heated or vaporized fluid exits the boiler for use in various processes or heating applications, including water heating, central heating, boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation.

Hi,
I have a strange problem in my recently purchased property. I hope someone can shed some light on it.

It is...
Hi,

Many Thanks in advance.
I want to ask what my legal rights are, so I noticed the house I own has both the neighbours waste pipe and also the boiler has release coming onto my property. (Sorry I am not very technical but can add an image maybe that should make it make sense). It appears this is due to an extension on...
Hi folks,
Another thought...
The new Ideal Logic Max boiler did not meet the requirements of the job. However during this installation process, the installer realised the problem. Can you tell me, whether the boiler could be un-installed, taken down from the wall (although some of the gas...
My Ideal boiler pressure gauge pointer shows about 0.85 when cold (about 1.8 when the heating is on).
10 weeks ago the readings were 1.0 when cold and 2.0 when hot.
Clearly there is a loss in pressure over time. I can see no leak on any radiator or near the boiler. Is this pressure drop of...
I'm trying to use an underfloor heating programmer/timer on my Worcester Boiler to control the central heating ?
The switched output from the programmer is 240v at 16amps yet it will not fire up the boiler ?
I cant understand why.
Thanks
Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone could advise if I should get a different plumber for a 2nd opinion.
Basically, my combi boiler is in my attic. It is overpressurised at the moment and the overflow pipe always drips.
I had a plumber round, he seemed good and honest and knew the neighbour so...
I have an intermitent buzzing noise that is coming from my boiler. The sound is coming from behind the door panel in the vicinity of where the flame occurs. The only other electronics in this area is the gas control valve and the main control panel module. The sounds seems like it may be coming...
Boiler is a Fagor FEB- 20E UK ECOPLUS in a holiday home (static caravan).
It has had a new thermostat fitted. We set it at 22c and switch the dial on the boiler to Winter, for the radiators. We do not use the timer as it should come on when it goes below set temperature.
The problem is.
It...
Hi all, back again with yet another question about my grant vortex combi boiler 😩
Sorted all previous problems and was running sweet until recently… now it’s loosing pressure really quick, from 1.5 bar down to 0 in a couple of hours (even when on standby neither hot water or central heating...
A good friend living in Suffolk has a Potterton Gold 12kW Electric boiler and for some months it has been coming on intermittently. Now it does not work at all. There is no problem with the temp/time controller and in fact I have placed a switch on the call input for testing. The power light is...

I have a Glow Worm Ultracom 30sxi boiler that provides central heating and also heats a hot water tank. There are no error codes shown on the boiler but recently the hot water has stopped working. If I try and change the temperature under the tap symbol, it just displays 'no'.
The boiler is...

I have drained my system to install a magnet filter on the boiler inlet and put some x400 into the system to leave for a few weeks to combat some growing sludge. After draining it and then refilling and bleeding the radiator floor by floor from the top floor down the boiler has air in it...
I moved into a 14 year old house a few months back and have a problem with the boiler (Ideal HE12).
It was always a bit noisy (fan) but it 'thumps' when lighting.. I was convinced it was 'explosive ignition' as it sounded like it was lighting with a thump, blowing out and then repeating but it...
