New WB boiler - with tepid 'hot' water!

True. I just wasnt sure if the new boiler was maybe just now as powerful as the last (Poterton Prima F) or with new boiler being more eco, if this was side effect.

Hopefully its an easy fix for someone that knows what they are doing then. I'll leave it to them rather than breaking it!

Nope the heat should be the same and they might of undersized the boiler but it should still come out like normal

Thanks for the advice; timber i am happy with, water/electricity & gas all in one...witchcraft.

They thought i was being a bit generous with the boiler size (1 bath, 1 shower, 14 rads) but thats what i asked for.

That valve appeared to have a fair bit of corrosion around it but opened it and there was a small amount of air came out followed by water.
