Has anyone experience of fitting a Potterton Gold heat only electric boiler? I have a customer who lives in the sticks, off gas, miles from anywhere whose brother (also retired) is ex-British Gas and has recommended one. My customer wants to lose the oil boiler and tank and gain...
Hi
I think I am suffering from a dry joint in the PCB as I have an intermittent fault where the fan sometimes keeps running when the boiler stops running. Pressing the reset button cures the problem.
I have read about newer PCBs are enclosed to stop this problem. So my question is if I take out...

I have got an ongoing issue with a prima 60F. Before I looked at it, someone had replaced the boiler stat and the overheat stat and the system had been cleaned. The problem is it keeps tripping the overheat stat, but not all the time, maybe once every 2-3 days.
I found the inner flue was...
My 12 year old Potterton 120L now burns pretty yellow and I can see small flecks glowing red hot on the bottom as I look in the inspection window. I am looking for advise re best course of action. Let it run as it is? Replace the heat exchanger itself? Get the heat exchanger (sealed unit)...
I have a Potterton Profile 100e boiler that has started giving trouble. It's a fully pumped system.

The boiler frequently cuts out, and has to be re set.
I had a plumber...

We have a Potterton 45 back boiler and it often makes a loud roaring sound as it tries to light. It rarely fails, but it can take a while before lighting.
Our heating engineer has been here twice, and on both occasions it lit every time in a most healthy fashion.
I realise that sooner or...
Going to look at a suprima tomorrow not firing. Just looking through a fault chart on the boiler and I'm struggling with the meaning of their use of testing the components. It says on various items that you turn off the main power supply and test the two wires say on the thermistor to see if is...
