Hi all,
I am hoping someone can help me on this one. I have a Glowworm Flexicom 12hx boiler, currently getting two different error codes (F25 and F22). Landlord believes the boiler has lost pressure and needs topping up, but I have no way of checking the boiler pressure - no dial and no on...
Hi
The gas boiler is getting old and so at some point will need to be replaced and I am trying to calculate what size it needs to be for best efficiency.
The system is zoned with Zone 1 being 15KW of radiators, Zone 2 being 10KW of radiators, Zone 3 being a Centerstore Solar 300L unvented hot...
We moved into our current home in June. The heating is supplied by a 10 year old WB Greenstar CDi 37kkW combi boiler. I had the boiler checked by a local GSR engineer who has serviced my son's boiler for many years. He said it was working correctly.
So far it has worked OK, getting the house up...
We have a hot water cylinder problem. The hot water from the boiler (system boiler, gravity fed, C Plan) goes into the cylinder in the middle after the 2-way valve, but the temperature at exit at the bottom is always at least 20 degrees C lower. It at best warms the water in the cylinder, or, if...
We have a 15 year old boiler situated in a poorly insulated garage (fixed to the same wall as our bedroom).
When it’s 5c outside (16c in house) it’s about the same in the garage and the frost stat kicks in. Twice a night we get the woken by the boiler coming on, the pump working and the pipes...
I'm contemplating treating the front room to some aluminium column rads. Looking on the justradiators site there's 1 that fits the bill at nearly 2 metres long. A company called Lux Heat makes the rad I'm interested in. Anyone heard of this make and are they ok?
Hello all,
I have a Grant Vortex Mag-One filter which is leaking from one of the three caps on the top of the unit, I think its the central black one(see Photo attached)
I have some new o-rings ready and the service instructions (see attached Photo) but am not sure on a couple of items and hope...
Towel rail needs to be removed so that new flooring can fit over pipes. Therefore the whole thing needs to come off valves and all so that the pipe ends coming up from the floor are exposed. The bottom compression nut and olive can stay on each pipe as there will be big enough holes in the...
My boiler packed up 11am yesterday after 21 years problem free heating.
What happens when I switch it on is:
The fan starts, the boiler then fires up and works for about 2 minutes and then the flames go out but the fan is still running.
If I turn it all off for half and hour it can then be...
Hello all!
We recently had a Vaillant ecoTEC plus 832 installed, along with a Vaillant VRT 350f controller! I use Auto mode, and set the programme to come on every day at 6am and switch off at 11pm, and I turned the set back temp down to 5°C (can't we just have an OFF?). The controller sits in...
I have been called in to sort a friend's heating system. They were constantly bleeding some of the radiators! The plumbing is a bit of a nightmare, done by the owner but cut and changed over the years. Originally there was a backboiler heating the system, this was removed and an oil boiler added...
Hi, a bit of advice required.
I've been getting a lot of fast water flowing sounds from three radiators downstairs but not all and upstairs they are quiet, well most of the time. I've bled the system 3 times and also played around with the locks and balancing the system. I can make small...

Hi I have a ideal logic 35 combi boiler is just little over 4 years old in a new build property was great for first few years but since about 2 years maybe it keeps loosing pressure what I top up. Once it lost it but then the filling loop wouldn't fill back up had someone out they said it may be...
I have a Vaillant Ecotec plus 637 boiler. The pressure is very high and pegged to the right - water is dripping out of the outside overflow through the Pressure Release Valve. An engineer has replaced the expansion vessel and checked the filling loop.
The pressure gauge is still pegged. (Note...
Hi all
I currently have 6 old radiators (downstairs) off what looks like 15mm pipework. It comes off the zone valve in 22mm and then goes under the suspended floor and is 15mm throughout. It takes forever to heat the rooms and as the radiators need replacing anyway I was looking to upgrade to...
My boiler pressure gauge is at zero so the boiler is not firing up. I thought I heard a small water leak in the wall near the boiler the other night, just before this happened, but the leak has now stopped.
I have been reading other posts to try to find a solution and I've hunted everywhere...
