Hot water only works when more than one hot tap turned on

Not going to dislike or disagree Craig but if sparkie is made aware he may realise he has altered something.

By what op has said, it's probably more a coincidence that the spark has worked there. I could be wrong though.

If it's what I'm thinking of then it should be a relatively simple fix. It's not a fault of recommend changing the boiler over but that of course is up to you.

Out of curiosity can I ask what you think the issue might be?

With very limited knowledge I agree. He was only doing some second fixing in a completely different room. Only affect on the boiler should have been power switching on and off a few times

Unfortunately due to forum rules, I'm not allowed to say. 1. to prevent you from attempting a repair yourself and 2. To prevent others reading this with a similar issue from also attempting a repair themselves.

No problem. Glad to hear you think it should be an easy fix anyway. Thanks again.

Apologies if this is anally question but doesn't that rule kind of render this forum useless? If nobody is allowed to suggest what the answer to a problem might be for fear that they might try to fix it themselves then surely anybody that is not qualified should not be allowed on the forum as the answer to any question would always be the same. Ie get a qualified gas fitter to look at it.

That should say a silly question

Not at all. Anybody is welcome to join and ask their question however when it comes to questions involving gas then there are rules. These rules are in place to stop and protect people from attemping their own repair which is actually illegal in law. Sorry but that is the way it is.

The rule only applies to offering advice to gas related questions. This forum covers all aspects of plumbing.

That makes sense. Do you think any competent gas fitter would be able to diagnose my issue fairly easily?
