If you ask the Matron nicely, I'm sure she'll patiently explain, for the nth time, that you believing something is very different to it being real. :D
 
Can you give me a step by step guide to changing the plate heat exchanger?

. Buy new heat exchanger.
. Buy spare drain off washers.
. Shut off power to BM2000 (and boiler).
. Shut off water supply to F&E cistern.
. Drain.
. Shut off cold mains supply to BM2000.
. Open lowest hot tap in the house.
. Undo top secondary connection on heat exchanger.
. Get a drip tray ready, and undo bottom secondary connection.
. Undo top primary connection.
. Slacken bottom primary connection.
. Swing down heat exchanger and drain into drip tray.
. Undo bottom primary connection and remove old heat exchanger.
. Remove old rubber washers.
. Install new heat exchanger with new rubber washers. Don't drop them down cracks in the flooring. Don't overtighten.
. Replace drain off washer.
. Close lowest hot tap in the house.
. Reinstate cold mains supply to BM2000, and check for leaks on secondary connections.
. Check F&E cistern for gunk - sponge out if necessary.
. Reinstate water supply to F&E. Allow BM2000 to fill and check for leaks on primary connections.
. If no leaks, then shut off F&E supply again, and drain off about 8 gallons of water.
. Add inhibitor to F&E, then fill up again.
. Restore power to BM2000, and allow 30 to 60 minutes to heat up.
. Test.


How much water is contained in the store?
The answer is on the label on the front of the appliance.

How long does it take to drain?
10 to 15 minutes unless the vent and cold feed are blocked.

No, do as follows:

Remove the green from 16 and connect it to 3.
Remove the blue from 17 and connect it to 2.
Remove the brown from 13 and connect it to 1.

And, before you switch on, verify that your BM2000 wiring matches the diagram. Assume nothing[/

Hi I am having similar problems with my boiler mate and had re- connected the pump likewise and all works fine please advise what my problem might be?
 
You have added to a three year old thread. Big Burner has since been banned and Softus has given up wasting time on forums!

There is so much useful advice on this thread that I would have thought that you will have all the answers you need.

If all works fine then I dont understand what you think is wrong.
