Hi, I've got this oldish boiler and the pressure drops down below the 1 now and then, I had a newer one in another property which was easy to increase the pressure, but not sure on this one.... any idea? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11082733/20161020_101359.jpg

I have disassembled the room thermostat/controller cleaned the contacts with fine wire wool and replaced the batteries with new ones. I have tried things like swapping the left and right battery trays. However, the only way I can get the connection back is if I power down the BOILER (thus...

We have a Worcester Bosch Danesmoor 20/25 oil boiler that's quite old but has been OK for the 6 years we have lived here. It has on occasion gone into idle mode which I have sorted by pressing the solenoid. However when I tried to turn on the heating a few weeks ago it just locked out after a...

Hi Everyone, I've been searching online and came across this website which seemed to have knowledgeable contributors so thought I'd join to ask some questions about a planned new central heating system. Apologies for the long post whilst I set the scene. My house consists of a lounge, a...

(I'm no expert but will do a lot of research and attempt most things if it will save me money and is legal to do myself) I moved into this house 1 year ago, but I think the boiler (Worcester 532i) is about 8-9 years old. At the weekend I moved a radiator (Someone had mounted it very high on...

Hi Had my boiler virtually rebuilt about a year ago by BG - new heat exchanger, diverted valve, pump. Have an issue starts this morning in that the heating won't turn off. Hot water works really well, no loss of water temp, programmer (electronic, built into boiler fascia) set to off for...

Hello all, Apologies in advance but this'll be another question about shower pressure! My partner and I have just moved into a 1980's 3-bed semi and the shower is basically a dribble. Even without the hose/head the water basically trickles out. Our hot water comes from a rather aged...

Hi Recently moved into a property which has these devices. First time I've come across wireless thermostat and not entirely sure how they all interact with each other. Problem I have is there is nothing on the digital display screen on the boiler. Blue light is lit up and have hot water /...

A couple of weeks ago I had an install of a Worcester Bosch Greenstar Highflow 440CDi with the Worcester Wave controller. It might be my imagination, but I think the CH pump runs constantly. Even when it's been hours since the heating was on, I can hear and feel (near the boiler) the vibration...

Looking at this list of exclusions does this list cover the majority of combi boiler faults so they wouldn't have to pay out for most faults? I was actually looking for just a boiler service from a local company but out of 3 companies contacted via the Worcester website of approved installers...

Hi. Just moved into a new cottage. Boiler fires up great and has the radiators and hot water pretty hot and quickly. I've realised though, that the controls don't seem to be working. 1) There is a room thermostat, which does click on and off but doesnt seem to affect the boiler in any way. I...

Hi, I have a Worcester Bosch 240 boiler. The pilot ignition sparks, but will not light the gas when following the correct relight process. I removed the front cover (screwed on protective cover) and I was able to light the pilot light manually with a flame, using the pilot ignition at the...

Hi guys, Its my first time here and its great to see the amount of information you can find just by browsing DIYNOT. I've been reading a lot about the problem that i am facing and i've seen there were very close to similar posts on here but nothing was like mine, at least i could not find it...

Hi all, I'm getting mixed information about a couple of things, wonder if someone can help iron this out. I have just received a dual channel Hive Heating & Hot water system. I have a combi boiler (Worcester Greenstar 42CDi). Do I need to send the Hive back and get the single channel system...

Hi folks, Would truly appreciate any help. Have a Worcester Greenstar 30SI combo boiler and the digistat will not turn the heating on. It seems that the tenperature can't be raised, so the + button isn't working. Have tried everything but can't solve it. Boiler isn't old so hoping it is...

I'm wanting to remove/clean/refit the water to water heat exchanger on my Worcester Bosch 280 RSF boiler (suspect poor heat transfer, boiler cutting in/out on demand). I'm struggling to find a specific gasket pack for the job (it's old now and exchanger type changed). I'm wanting to know my...

Hello, I'm looking for a qualified person to replace the Gas Valve on my Worcester boiler as pictured below. The valve is long obsolete but I have managed to get one so now looking for an engineer. My location is Royal Wootton Bassett.

I had a problem with water leaking out of the Automatic Air Vent. Skip forward 2 nightmare days or leaks at the air vent , at then at the drain cock, and the system is now refilled and not leaking, however the pilot won't stay alight. When I drained down the system I only vented the first...
