I got a power flush booked in and they have a back boiler, they have no idea of the make or age or even if has ever been serviced.
is there anything I need to no about flushing them? Or just crack on as per normal?
I use a fernox powerflow with magnetic filter and usually f5
 
Any chance it might have a scale problem ? as you may need something more aggressive to get rid of scale, and note on some old BBU the vent & Cold feed came right back to the boiler.
 
Cheers, so just crack on as per usual. I keep a fx2 in the van just incase ever needed but I don't like using it
 
Pmsl as soon as started asking questions they just refunded it.

i decided to go for early learning centre and fisher price stickers lol

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks

Ideal Logic 24, Previous problem was that the hot water was only cold or barely warm if the heating was in use. If heating was off and boiler cold then would get hot water most of the time. Changing the flow cartridge about 2 years ago (when I moved in) solved this problem enough to suffer it as...
