We have an oil delivery booked for Friday but we ran out earlier today. We topped the tank with 150L from containers, bled the first boiler from the Allen key until the oil ran free and it fired up fine.
Did the same on the second one but that had an E9 over temp error. We reset the thermostat...

We have a 2005 Worcester Bosch Oil Heatslave 26/32 that is fitted with the optional timer. Recently we have a problem.

Hello, this is my first time on the forum. Three months ago we had a 1000 lt fill. We then noticed a strong oil smell when the boiler was firing up. There was no sign of an oil spill. Contacted our engineer to have the boiler serviced, still the strong oil smell was there. Recommended having new...
Is there anyone out there who has come across this problem.
Our boiler locked out so pressed the reset button and it seemed that all was fine. Red light went out and fan started etc. About an hour later noticed nothing seemed to be warming up. But motor was still running and no lockout. Called...
The use of inserts on 10mm rolls of plastic covered copper. Brass inserts are available for this purpose, but does anyone use them. They have an O/D of 7.7mm where as the I/D of all of the coils available to me are 8.6 min.
I have a tank to install.
No static head, about 25m run.
Don’t want any joins.
Check the books - says I should use 6mm pipe.
Cant find a source of 6mm sleeved Copper pipe anywhere.

Can only find max of 25m rolls of 8mm sleeved.
Check distance to tank ...... 26...
With regs requesting more oil line pressure testing, what's the best way to test an existing oil line with a tiger loop.
Can you leave it in place or do you exclude form test. ?
We have an outdoor Worcester Bosch Greenstar 25/32 Oil Fired Combi.

Noticed today that the ground looked damp around the outside of our Worcester Bosch Heatslave 25/32 External Boiler. Took the cover off and warm water is pooling in the base of the unit. Can't see an obvious leak and all the components are dry. I'm guessing it's the thermal store leaking. Is...
