Hi, just a quick query (hopefully). We’ve got a combi boiler installed in a cupboard with the flue going 90° then directly through the external wall to where it terminates. We’ve had numerous gas safety certificates for it over the years with having lodgers etc, but we’re about to sell the house...

Morning all,
I am just about to begin doing more installs of combi boilers, I am gas safe but just never really done a lot of installs due to being busy with general plumbing and bathrooms. One question that i have is, when checking working pressure on a boiler with a zero governor what sort...
Has anyone experienced this before. Converted gravity hot water to new unvented cylinder (150l indirect evocyl) filled the cylinder up and had yellow water for about half an hour before it started to clear. Any ideas from anyone. I’m G3 registered. Was converted due to suspected split coil in...

Hi guys
I am having my current cylinder replaced with a World Heat superflow indirect cylinde as im upgrading to solar thermal via a grant. I asked the supplier if they are replacing the immersion heating thermostat and the thermostat thats connects to the boiler and I was told if I want that...
British Gas servicing the above boiler ramped up the boiler to maximum in the installer menu to do flue gas analysis.
They also measured the working gas pressure on the gas valve test nipple. This fell to 8mbar on maximum and 17mbar on high setting.
They then removed the isolation valve under...
Good afternoon.
Just after some advice on this boiler. Heating is working fine, no issues at all.
The issue is with the hot water. It will fire up no problem then after about 30 seconds, cut out and fire back up again. I was thinking it was the diaphragm which i have changed and the problem...
Hi all!
Have recently finished my training and am looking for anyone who would be willing to help me complete my gas engineer portfolio? I did have a mentor but he has ghosted me and have messaged over 70 local people and nobody seems to want to do it! I’m in the Worcestershire area!
Many thanks

Hi, I am new gas safe registered. I serviced a old worcester R28 HE Z7-28 system Boiler. found negative fan pressure -3.95mb lower than MI's -4.2mb, Gas rate is 2.82 m3/h, little bit lower than MI'S 2.9M3/H, so clean heat exchanger very well. after that check fan negative pressure, -3.11mb...
Heating works and hot water- sometimes, but I noticed when I turn the hot tap on the pressure gauge drops to zero.
I've not seen this before. Topping up the pressure doesn't seem to make a difference. As soon as the heating only is on pressure goes back up to 1.5bar.
The thing is the flat is...

Hi all,
Just curious - how often do you all replace the burner seal on a Worcester Greenstar during servicing?
Assuming all is well with combustion levels, pressure test, etc. (As without X-ray vision, one obviously can't see the state of it until you take it apart).
Thanks everyone,
Jennie
Hi all,
I'm due to change my first plate on a Worcester Greenstar next week (not looking forward to it).
I found this on Youtube. Is it really as easy as this guy says? And what about checking/replacing the O-rings?
Any tips most welcome.
Thanks
Jennie
Hi guys...
Happy New year to you all....

Hi all. Got a few of these boilers coming up to 4yrs old and want to know if anyone has used something other than the recommended service tool which costs £57?
Hi
I have a Greenstar 8000 Life 30kw system boiler and 250litre indirect unvented cylinder.
The programmable Danfoss time clock is split Rads (controls upstairs rads) Hotwater (controls HW to cylinder).
Ground floor is UFH and has a separate wireless Thermostat that kicks it on and off.
All...
Can anyone tell me if the greenstar 24i circulating pump modulates? i have been looking at param 2.1c which references settings 0 to 4, i know the factory default setting is 4 (constant high pressure) which to me implies that it would not modulate on this setting, does it need to be setting 0 to...
HI All,
Weird problem with an FS30 CDI, The boiler does not come on when demand for heat (LR terminal) is on, but I can turn it on manually via the service menu. Heating controls all seem fine, but anyone seen an issue before where it doesn't seem to register the demand for heat and just stays...
