Logic heat exchanger leaking

[Daffy]

Anyone recently come across this problem ?
I know of a few where the main heat exchanger has started to leak & the boiler is still relatively new

 

[REDSAW]

yes, is it the + and wheres it leaking?

 

[ndsmith]

I have heard that a lot of the logic heat exchangers are started to leak from a chap at parts centre

Any of them , pressure was dropping checked system then realised condensate was constantly trickling

 

[Alpha man]

We have had one leak too!

Seems to be a major problem - i know someone whos had 2 replaced in 3 years !

Ouch, vern if your reading this, I apologise. Seems like you were right after all.

I do like the look of the Logic, but could never bring myself to fit one after the icos/isar. I was kind of hoping they would prove me wrong though, but its not looking good.

To add balance have had the same from Worcesters also

Have fit hundreds & not had one heat exchanger leak on Worcesters - 10 year warranty on them
What model was it ?

 

[Roger Welton]

30 CDi system

This is going to be a huge problem for the early ones from launch to around 18 months, there was an ideal engineer on here who posted the effected serial number prefixes which are 2 letters, it was within another thread about best boilers etc....
i know of around 6 that have let go, PCB's are also not great on early ones all sorted under warranty though!

I know of 2 WB5 heat cells, one was power flushed using the Kamco acid flush the week before whoops.....other one went aged 7 yrs dunno history of boiler though....

Are they claiming ( Ideal ) to have sorted this problem ?

Dunno pal as ideal guys said early ones effected, but later spec ain't been around 18 months, so cycle may start again who knows, apparently the casting sand ain't been removed fully in early ones either causing possible hot spots!
