My mechanical timer has started losing time, meaning my heating is no longer coming on when I want it. I assume the timer unit is failing and needs replaced (or is it fixable?) and was wondering what my best options are? I'm tempted by something like a Nest to give me more remote control; can...

Hi, we have a Worcester 24i RSF-L combi with an intermittent problem. Sometimes it just doesn't work, no hot water or heating. A CH engineer came out and eventually changed the fan at the top after he removed the long clear pipe coming from the fan, blew down it and the boiler started up. He...

Hello all, first post here so be gentle with me! I am the (not so) proud owner of an archaic WORCESTER 28CDI combi. Around Xmas time the boiler made some horrible loud grinding noises and then gave up completely, RGI came round and diagnosed the fan. Brand new fan fitted and then the boiler...
