    Called out to fault on Alpha HE 33. New Fan Installed.

    Could be pcb fault, water leak, pump, how do you know it was the fan. Are you qualified to be tinkering in there?

    Best Multimeter for testing Central Heating and Boilers?

    Anything waterproof and in a rubber case, oh and a big display with backlight is handy if you’re approaching 50 a little quicker than you’d like. ive got a basic fluke, cost about £90 maybe 5 years ago.

    Heating engineer cost

    aren’t we just taking the food out of our own mouths here? As a one man outfit I never mention this to my customers, I’d be just sat at home while the big companies make another Gazziliion pounds to pay their fat cat CEO. On the only occasion I did, which was to a friend btw, it was a Worcester...

    C/H pump not working unless HW is switched off

    C/H pump not working unless HW is switched off

    I thought 3 ports on unvented weren’t allowed, it’s got to be 2 2ports and an auto bypass. it’s to do with the dhw port being open when off that can overheat the tank. you need to get your installer back to change it That’s basics, god knows what else he’s done

    rain water coming into Ideal Combi boiler through flue and causing main circuit board to blow.

    Is the gutter split? I’ve seen water run down the brick wall and into the boiler, also see rose bushes growing round the flue causing water to run inside. if it was a split flue, I mean split enough for a lot of water/condensate to pass from inner to outer, then the burn would be bad...

    Electric combi boiler advice needed!

    I’ve not installed any myself but there’s an apartment block (converted school) near me and I’ve fixed a few. They’re mainly storage combi’s from EHC, run at about 50A on 10mm cable, which is about the same as a bigger end electric shower...

    Can you freeze it? Shut the other rad valve, whip off the rad and freeze the pipe just a little distance away from the valve

    Heating thermostat no wired up with 3 phase. How do I tell which cable?

    Also the old stat wasn’t wired up just L & N, just because that’s the colours you think are Live and Neutral doesn’t mean they are, hell I’ve seen green/yellow used as a switched live plenty of times, doesn’t mean it’s earth

    Heating thermostat no wired up with 3 phase. How do I tell which cable?

    if you don’t know what you’re looking at then clearly you need to get someone in who does, taking 240V wiring advice from an open forum is easily misinterpreted and the mistakes can be catastrophic! ELECTRICITY KILLS pal for the sake of a 50quid job just pick up the phone
