rayburn

Hey I have an elderly neighbour who's had an issue with there Rayburn 368k over the last 18 months. They started needing to replace the Glow Coil every 8-10 weeks (at a princely sum of £120) this was tenable till the most recent one only lasted 3 days. I'm wandering if there is anyone has...

Sorry to be a little bit vague but I was cleaning my uncles oil fed rayburn the other day but cannot find where a angled bit of thin plate about 20cm long goes, I noticed it had fallen on top of the burner and retrieved it when I took the burner out, I put it to one side thinking I'll find its...

Please could anybody advise us? We have an old Rayburn 480AG that requires a new cooker burner, however Aga say this part is now obsolete and basically said to get a new one(!!). I managed to locate a secondhand one on eBay but the only local engineer I’ve managed to find in West Sussex says I...

Hi - looking for some pointers. We have a Rayburn 480K with a Honeywell timer/control unit. Today the heating has been on non-stop - room stay is not calling for heat, and even with control unit setting to off the Rayburn is still firing up. I’m assuming a wiring issue - but grateful for any...

I have a Rayburn connected to hot water cylinder indirect with radiators which turn on when at certain temperature. The system has been working for many years with no issues, but when I drain the system I get an air lock which sometime sorts itself out when the temperature gets to 90 deg. I...

I have Rayburn XT range PF model. There’s a fault and I thinks it’s the high temperature stat. The service manual says there is a manual reset button on this stat. There is a small bolt with a plus and minus symbol. Has anyone come across this and is the bolt the reset it just a setting.

Advice please? I have just moved in to a house and have a Rayburn 380G (Gas) and the Pump is running continuously whether the hot water & central heating are on or not. the only way to stop it is by switching off the whole system electrics...not useful as then no Rayburn!! or hot water or...

Hi all, We installed a second hand Rayburn 600k a couple of years ago - yes, I'm afraid it was a bit of a lifestyle statement but SWMBO wanted one, so there it is. Anyway, a while ago it started misbehaving: it would fire up OK, but once up to temperature, it would switch off - as it should -...

Hi Folks, We’re in the process of moving homes (or should that be projects! :D). The new place has an oil fired range cooker - photo below. We’ve been told it’s a Rayburn but I can’t find any online that look the same. There are no identifying marks I can see anywhere. As far as I know it...

Bleeding Rayburn 480 Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help with regards to bleeding a 480k Rayburn. We run out of oil and after refilling now have air stopping oil feeding into the Rayburn. I have looked through the manual and have an idea how to do this but wondered if anyone had a step by...

I have a problem with my boiler, a Rayburn 480ag (gas fired), which is short cycling. From cold it will burn continuously for 10 to 15 minutes until the boiler thermostat turns it off. It is off for just 30 seconds before firing up again, running for 30 secs, turning off again, etc, etc. It may...

Hi, I'm trying to get my head around what's required to install a semi pumped system with a Rayburn Royal. I'm likely going to fit a high output boiler into it for a start, in case someone pipes up with "forget it" :rolleyes: I've got a garage full of logs and some, plus a Rayburn in there...

Hi all We have recently installed a second (at least third) hand rayburn 355sfw and I am getting to grips with efficiently heating the rads. On re-reading the user manual it suggests removing the boiler side and back firebricks for winter heating use. I have done this but the bricks have broken...
