Hi everyone First time poster and DIY enthusiast. I'd like to install a hive heating system to replace a Potterton EP2002 programmer. The EP2002 back box looks quite daunting with loads of wires - nearly put me off the idea of doing this myself. I'm looking for advice on how to install the...

Hi there, If anyone can help me or at least give me some pointers it would be great, as I am seriously stuck. I do have a technical back ground but my knowledge of central heating is very limited, prior to making a choice on attempting a repair or looking at going down the combi route as a...

So I have a Potterton Promax HE boiler, I have not used the CH all summer; the boiler has worked fine all summer for the DHW. Now it’s getting colder I went to put the CH on and for some reason it doesn’t work. When the selector switch is on CH & DHW the LED does not come on for CH but it does...

Hi All, Our Potterton Promax has developed an annoying fault where it doesn't always light - usually first thing in the morning, so when we all want the shower and a warm house it doesn't happen. It has been known to happen in the evenings as well. When it doesn't light, it goes through the...

Hi, When I turn on the hot tap there's a red light on the modulator board. I followed the diagnostic flowchart which says either change the DHW flow switch or the frost thermostat. I changed both but it's still the same. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi, I'm hoping some body could help me i have a Halstead Best 50 Boiler (Ironic Name) pumped system with hot water tank The boiler is controlled by a Potterton EP2000 programmer. I can either have the boiler on or off at various times of the day what i am struggling to find out is can i...

Hi All, Short story: went away on hols, boiler turned off but power/water on. Came back from holiday and boiler wouldn't start and CH pump constantly running. Replaced flue as knackered and fan. Replaced actuator. Now boiler starts and CH pump runs but: On a cold start first thing in the...

Hello. Looking for help in the cold weather. I've just come back from holiday. Before I went away I'd turned the boiler off on the controller but left the power on so that the frost thermostat could kick in if the temp got to cold. I'm back and now the boiler won't start. The trip switch is ok...

Hey everybody, so recently my boiler has started giving a hard time. I went out the other day (mind you it was extremely cold) and when i came back the boiler wasnt working as good. The downstairs rad were cold and upstairs were just about warm but still had flowing hot water through the taps...

Hi All I'm hoping someone can help diagnose an issue we're having with our Potterton Suprima boiler as I've not been able to figure out what the issue is after a day of troubleshooting and investigation. Its probably worth mentioning that we had the PCB replaced about 18 months\2 years ago...

Hi, new on this forum, my room thermostat - potterton prt100 died and need replacement... I was looking at Honeywell DT90e ? it needs to be fairly simple to replace - DIY :) It don't have to be anything fancy but it would be nice to change/upgrade to something from 21th century :) Budget i...

Hi all, Here out of desperation. Had a new bathroom fitted and the system was drained down to fit a new radiator on our ageing Potterton F60 on a conventional gravity fed system. For a week I've had no HW through the boiler (had to revert to immersion (however that's spelled)). Rads all fine...

The pump connected to our Potterton Profile 80e is running constantly. I first noticed it when I heard the boiler fire up at 2am, when both the CH and HW are off on the LP522 timer. I've had two engineers out from different companies. One said both valves (valve & head) and LP522 timer need to...

I have a Boilermate II under the stairs (in the kitchen) and a Potterton Suprima gas boiler in the kitchen and am impressed they have lasted about 18 yrs even though I live in a very hard water area! I have had a service contract with British Gas and for many years they have serviced it...

hi there, i am new to this forum and can someone please help me with an issue i am facing with my CH system? basically, i cleaned the system with X800 and left it in for a week after we had our radiators replaced with new ones about 2 months ago. i then refilled and drained the system three...

Hello, I just have a simple question - I need to replace the Potterton PRT2 thermostat with something else, as I can't get spare parts or a new one (it's too old and discontinued as far as I can tell - it looks like this...

Good Morning, I hope someone can help. We had a Potterton EP2001 programmer and Potterton PTT2 Cylinder Stat (along with PRT2 Room Stat). The PTT2 Cylinder Stat failed and was replaced with a Drayton HTS3 and the Programmer with the Potterton EP2. The Programmer front section was simply...
