New Flat, No Hot Water

[nickt1988]

Hi Guys,

Brought a flat on friday and i have heating but no hot water.

The current set up is:

Pottertons Kingfisher MF
Landis and GYR panel (Picture Attached)
Immersion tank (Not plugged in, been told its used for backup)
Salamander CT50 Twin Pump

So if i turn the heating on, the boiler turns on.
If i turn the water on at the same time, the water doesn't heat up.
If i turn the heating off, wait for the boiler to go out and then turn the water on, the boiler doesn't turn on.

I've tried resetting the boiler and it still doesn't turn on.

Obviously its hard to tell without seeing it but i was wondering if any had any ideas what could be wrong, several people have said different things. One thinks it the panel, the other thinks a valve is gone, another thinks i should get the whole system replaced with a small combi boiler.

any help on this would be amazing.

Also the pump's pressure is way too high, Its really loud and the hot tap in the kitchen is way to fast and is unusable because it sprays water everywhere.
Is it possible to turn this down?

Thanks

Nick
