Hi,
New to the forum, with limited plumbing / CH knowledge, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
My set up - Ideal icos boiler, Siemens RWB29 programmer, Siemens thermostat, Megaflo CL170HE water tank. Already installed in my home (roughly 8 years old) which I purchased a year ago.
On Thursday of last week I came down to find a puddle in the lounge, it became apparent the Megaflo tank was leaking on the first floor, appeared to be coming from the overflow valve. I followed the recommended instructions on the Megaflo tank and this stopped the overflow valve dripping. Went on holiday hours after this was resolved and came back last night.
Luckily no more leaks from the Megaflo tank but now unfortunately no hot water.
When I override the hot water to come on via the programmer the boiler status shows C and the burner light flashes continuously and no hot water is produced. I noticed the pressure was down to 0.5 so topped this back up to 1.5 but it had no effect.
Central Heating works fine - radiators are blazing hot but after having both CH and HW on for over an hour there is still no hot water from the taps.
Not sure what to do from here - not sure if it means anything but there is a couple of seconds of warmer water when running the hot tap but then it goes back to cold. I've tried the classic turn it all off and on again with no luck.
As I said, a complete novice so any assistance would be great thank you!
