Hi,
I've recently moved into a new home, which has a combi boiler (my first one) and it's a Worcester 532/i. Everything is working correctly, in that I can make the heating come on if I need it, and there's hot water in the taps.
The problem is, it's always making a noise even when the heating is off and no taps are being ran. My first theory was that it was constantly pre-heating water, so I've switched on Eco-mode, which I believe should stop this behaviour, but it's made no difference. I don't know what the boiler is doing, but whatever it is is doing, I figure it must be wasting energy?
The noise doesn't sound like a fault - no banging, clicking, whining etc. It's just a constant low level noise similar to when the heating is on - only much quiter.
Could anybody offer any suggestions on things to try/check?
EDIT: Forgot to mention that the bar pressure looks ok-ish - at just under 2 (about 1.8 at a guess)
Thanks
