Can someone tell me why my boiler has an intermittent problem with the hot water. It did it last weekend - I had a look at it did nothing besides take the front off and havd a look and it's worked since then. The boiler itself has a themostat on it - I'm not sure if this is redeundant or whether it used to be for the central heating or what. There seems to be a copper wire (no insulation) coming from the area of the thermostat dial which dispappears into a hole 3/4 of the way up boiler.
I've got a gravity fed system with no thermostat on or near the hot water tank. There's no pump outside of the CH pump. No motorised valves (whatever they are).
So what controls the hot water. The thermostat? What's the copper wire for? HELP I'm going mad.
