    HW takes ages to heat up

    Hello, my HW is taking longer than expected to heat up and it's getting worse. I can go 10-40 degs after 1.5 hours of only heating HW, whereas I should be going 10-60 degs in 30-40 mins by my maths. Don't even mention trying to heat HW and CH at the same time. 30 mins with the immersion adds...

    Potterton Prima 40F - Takes a long time to fire up, apart from if I hit the front panel!

    Hi, I have an old Potterton Prima 40F in my house, which I'm guessing is 10-20 years old. When I moved into the property in the winter of 2014, I had the same fault as I've seen tonight. I can hear a click, the boiler fan starts up and then a click and the fan stops. This repeats again and...

    When a customer finally takes your advice...

    So I fitted some extra radiators to an existing heating system in a rental last autumn. The system has a permanent pilot boiler and is open-vented. Weirdly, there is no ballcock on the F&E, just a tap. I had previously advised the customer it would be a good idea to fit a ballcock, but would...

    Tap takes 2 turns to come on, then sprays full blast

    I have a problem with just the hot water tap in my kitchen. For the last few months, it has taken several turns before any water will come out. Once the water does come out, it jets out at a pressure equivalent to the number of turns I've had to make (i.e. high pressure!). I can then turn the...

    Aristo takes over ATAG

    I've just seen in the Gas Safe mag that Ariston have taken over ATAG. I've only ever fitted a couple of ATAGs, (mainly because they look a bit 'awkward') but have been very impressed with them. What will this mean for the future? I've never really thought much of Ariston boilers, and can't say...

    Hi guys went to a job today. Potterton Profile. When it should light, it takes approx 5 attempts, sometimes more but once it does fire up it all seems to run ok. The customer also complained of a "rattling or banging noise like metal on metal." I was at the property for just over an hour...
