Brand New Install 28i Junior DHW Cut out

[Damon Apple]

Installed yesterday worked perfectly ch and dhw, woke up this morning, ch is perfect but dhw cuts off after approx 2min 30 secs and requires reset which does nothing other than allow me to have dhw for a couple more mins.

Worcester comin out on Monday to have a look but do you guys have any ideas, I am totally stumped!

This is a BRAND NEW boiler...surely this should not be happening?

yep they recone 1 in 5 doesnt work from new you could fit 20 and never have a problem or fit 5 and all be goosed hence why being gas safe is a good idea otherwise no gaurentee

Hahhahah good one....wish i got a bloody baxi now lol

 

[jhon lennon]

fitted a baxi 25 he the other day would not do a thing pcb bladdered guy in supliers swapped it for me ime a regular customer and have put loads of these in but that was the firs one that gave me a problem

 

[Rickster123]

As long as you've flushed it and added inhibitor you'll be ok

 

[Damon Apple]

Flushed and added inhib and now drained off and reflushed...and wahey now i get dhw for 3 1/2 mins before cutout..arghhhhh

Anyone got any ideas regarding possible fault?

 

[Rickster123]

I meant as long as you have flushed the system and added inhibitor get Worcester out to sort it. It's under warranty. Don't go stripping it down or the warranty will go for a burton!

 

[Rickster123]

Damon who actually fitted the boiler? And are you GSR?

 

[Damon Apple]

me, i am a bg installer

 

[Rickster123]

me, i am a bg installer

Sorry for the misunderstanding it's just on a previous post you made on 30.12.11 you said you were an apprentice. Congrats on passing your acs!

 

[SafeGasInstall]

No wonder your boiler does not work , cos your a bg man lol ha-ha-ha

No disrespect , just wind up

 

[Damon Apple]

:waving:Hahaha gud job i can take a joke....being NQE means i am constantly getting the mickey takin outta me at work..passing the acs was the easy part...Now the hard work begins i guess....

i think your doctor can give you some pills for this condition.

im sure the worcester engineer will sus it in no time. I had a baxi engineer out this week to a duotec 2, he said its the thingy on the board and left saying he would be back in a few days with a new one. Its been 3 days now and no sign of him

 

[Damon Apple]

So what your saying is if the worcester engineer arrives i have to lock all the doors and windows until hes fixed it?

 

[quality]

Worcester are not what they used to be
They have to many cheap tacky clips and flimsy bits and that's not to mention the plastic

:willy_nilly:WAHEYYYY:willy_nilly:

Bit of a strange one this.....I decided to go back into service mode...I rechecked the gas rate for the ch and the dhw, checked the inlet..all checked as should...Then I opened the dhw at the sink whilst in service mode(which clearly states in the commisioning booklet...cough cough i must have missed that one...And..........after 10 mins..

It works perfectly!!:willy_nilly:
I have no idea why....tbh the only different thing i did was not open the dhw tap during original commissioning whilst in service mode..but...why was it all working perfectly the night before????

Should I cancel the Worcester Engineer or should I let him come along just incase?
If it resets again over the weekend guys i will let ya all kno bout it,...Right im off for a bath:icon10:

 

[GQuigley67]

seems a bit like an intermittent fault to me, i would get the worcester guy out and explain what has been happening you shouldnt be having any problems

you say you fitted it in your own home, do you have your own gs registration ? i dont know how the warranty works with it being in your own home but i would imagine theyd try anything to get out of warranty fix.

 

[smileyplumber]

ive had faulty gas valves buggered pcb's etc with new worcesters latest was a dom thermister in a 37 cdi
I guess if they are going to be duff then they just will
must addmit i stopped fitting Aristons after 3 in a row didnt work out the box and Im not going to mention Ideal nooo no way
could be a blockage in dom heat exchanger causing circuit to over heat but like said before just let worcester sort it

 

[smtplumbing]

shame you never had your own Gs number as worcester would of gave you £150 back for installing in your own home

 

[Damon Apple]

Already been quizzed by em when i registered over the phone ...And im saying to them, no i work for bg but i am not going to pay any third party to install my boiler am i??? cmon..

So i will ring em in the morning to discuss the intermittent fault see if they gonna check it out or just leave it and see what happens..
I should still be eligable for that £150 cashback surely..Im gonna quiz that cheers guys..

[smtplumbing]

[SafeGasInstall]

you will get your self in trouble if you are PAYE to bg and GSR using there number , install out of there work (doing your own work ) !

 

[Damon Apple]

As for the cash back offer i understand that this is probably only for self employed persons with there own business but i am gonna apply for it any ways, nothing ventured nothing gained, If they say no ive lost nothing other than the price of a stamp and an envelope.

I do not go round doing my own work using BG reg number....!

you live in carlisle and work the south east...c'mon, have you seen the film pinocchio....it's good.

 

[yo1]

you cant do work under your company registration if its not during work, why would you try and register it under your bg number? doubt worcester would know any different.

 

[gassafe]

Did Worcester Bosch come out today after all? I wondered what the outcome was... nobody likes an open ended thread!
