Hi I’ve just moved into a house with one of these boilers. It broke down after 3 weeks and I had a plumber out who replaced the fan (after 10 days without heat). That was in Feb…it’s been repaired about 2-3 weeks and it’s gone again today. Obviously I’ll be calling them on Monday but I was...
Hello everyone, i have installed underfloor heating, and cant figure out how to wire manifold pump so that it only turns on with the heating on and not with hot tap water it is a ideal logic + combi 30 boiler. Anyone know if its even possible?
Hi,
We’ve had an issue with the boiler losing pressure that needs refilling once a week. We’ve had 3 different leak detection companies and they could never find a leak. We’ve had multiple boiler engineers and they can never find an issue with the boiler.
Recently, a gas engineer suggested...

Hi There,

Hi
I have a Gloworm 30CI which has been in the house since we bought it in 2007. I have repaired and replaced the filler cap and the odd o-ring and it's generally given us very good service. It started leaking one day from what seems to be right at the back on the left side of the pump, I have...
Finally decided to get a new boiler fitted - going for an external combi boiler. Old boiler/pipework was fitted in 2005.
Plumber attended today to power flush prior to fitting the boiler tomorrow. He said the water wasn't too bad, a greyish color. He was here for around 90 mins and as far as I...

Sorry to add another thread but I’m looking for some help. I have installed a hive v3 water and heating replacing my old st699. This was prompted by removing the old thermostat that I thought wasnt working and doing nothing to find it was infact setting the heat of the house and plunged...
I'm looking to create a cupboard around my kitchen combi boiler.
Is it safe to cover all 5 sides? Or do the top or bottom have to be left exposed?
Also, is there any issue in trying to line the cupboard with some sort of soundproofing material?
Thanks for any input.

Awoke this morning to a cold house and a Glowworm Energy 30S boiler showing an F75 error code which would indicate a pressure or pressure sensor issue. When I restart the boiler the pressure shows 0.6b for about 30 seconds before going into error, one video online implied it would show 1.5b as...
Hi, I got a plumber round to change the pipes for 3 radiators to one. They aren't quite in the right place but luckily there is some give so at a stretch we can make it work when we install the radiator. He quoted to do this and install Hive for £160. Seemed like a nice guy until he broke the...
I have purchased a smart thermostat from Amazon, I currently have a danfross (tp5000 I believe) Im looking for advice on the wiring or if it can/can’t be done.
Looking to open up a discussion - purely to learn / discover something new. The point of this thread is to explore the topic.
When a Plate Heat Exchanger (PHEx) is blocked - one obvious option is to clean out the unit (spirit of salts etc) & then refit.
What are members thoughts about...
