    Pressure Drop with Hot Water flow - Ideal Vogue S32 Gen 2

    Hi there, I have a Vogue S32 Gen 2 in an empty rental property and noticed that the Boiler Pressure Gauge was high at about 3 bar. It may be that the old Tenants over pressured it with the filling loop, as I’ve certainly only filled it to 1.5 bar historically. I drained down the CH water...

    Ideal Classic - is there something wrong with the flame?

    Hi, my first post. I have an Ideal Classic FF230 which has been noisy for a while but recently has gone a little quiet. It used to make a noise which seemed like the fan was going but that seems to have gone. Now the burner shows a mix of orange with the blue flame and there seems to be red...

    Ideal logic primary heat exchanger leak sealant success?

    A mate tells me he cured a heat engine leak on this boiler (confirmed by boiler isolation & dripping condensate drain) by adding K-Seal car type sealant, and It's still ok after 5 years. Has anyone else had success curing these leaks with sealant additives?
