ideal classic RS250 kettling

[PETE 123]

Flow and return reversed

it did have that problem after the plumber fitted the unvented, but I figured it out and got him back to fix it. trouble is im not sure if that has caused a some irreversible damage to the heat exchanger.

Are you gsr? Why are you removing the casing to get to the heat exchanger? Get someone in who is gsr to look/ sort it for you.

It does sound to me as though it is piped up back to front still which will be the cause of your problem.

defo piped the right way round now. I would get a gsr to sort it only the unvented gsr g3 man and crew were the ones who piped it the wrong way round in the first place. I bitched about the boiler sounding like it had someone pouring water into it, and was told your boilers 15 years old and knackered, yes well reverse flowing it doesn't help.

so now I have a distinct distrust of some gsr's. not to mention trying to get them to turn up is an art form all of its own.

And we have an inherent mistrust of diy Dave and his attempts to repair his boiler himself.

ok mister helpful.

give me the details of a local to Boston plumber, who will:

1) turn up.
2) not want to charge more than a consultant surgeon.
3) doesn't want to replace a boiler that is repairable.
4) wont the job up.
5) will remember to put inhibitor in after they drain down.

How's about you read the forum rules explaining why your thread has been closed and equally why I'm kicking you off the forum for a week.

Come on here asking advice then stating you don't trust us is bad enough but coupled with the swearing.....

Well that's too much. You've been a member long enough to know better.
