No central heating...new boiler

That would cause it to trip

He's going to make a single connection. Into the socket

Does beg the question what the other engineer “tidied” up

He suspects the 3 way is knackered. Testing another, without installing

Valve seems working now, it was the junction box he suspects was the main problem....fingers crossed

Keep telling People to reed the boiler instructions when job is started first thing it says in instructions is do electric safety checks resistance to earth so on and so forth when you do a full install or a new boiler or change over Anyways first engineer could have checked components on boiler like pump so on and so forth to find if there was a fault in boiler and if a 12 way wireing junction box this made it all the better for me it just shows what type of engineers are out there all to do with guess work this goes on here in Ireland but I taught we were pass all this in UK just shows how wrong I was Hope you get boiler sorted

Well come home and it hasn't tripped out so it MAY well be sorted. I still plan to change the system to a combi anyways in the near future!. Liking the look of nest also.

Stay away from combi boilers stick to the old method x or y plan for me on a combi if you have water pressure issues ie hard water area this is a no no with all boilers heat exchangers kettle up than you have issues filter on return all inhibitors added and a power flush jobs a good one

It is a hard water area for sure, I've been told of something called a magnaflow or magnatec which filters out all the crud?

I think you're thinking of the Magnaclean? Its a magnet based filter that filters out the magnatite (magnetic sludge from corrosion of CH system). They're useful but they won't help you with hardwater problems i.e. limescale, for that you want something like the combimate.

Yep limescale is quite bad around here. Well boiler hasn't tripped out yet, so fingers crossed it's problem solved!. All I need to do now is try and bleed the towel rad, it hasn't got the typical bleed valve, just some flat screw on both sides which was impossible to turn!. Any suggestions?
