Problem with Gloworm Energy Saver 30e

[beermatt3]

Hi everyone,

Got a Gloworm Energy saver 30e gas condensing boiler which doesn't work.

Sometimes it works and other times it doesn't.
You hear the gas valve open and gas come through and then it quickly closes. Sometimes when it does work it goes with a rush and a bang.

I am reluctant to spend to much money on it as I reckon it must be quite old, but I have only just moved in so don't know for sure.

Anyway I have shut it down now, has anyone got any ideas what could be wrong, seems strange to me why it works sometimes.

Also has anyone got any instructions for the boiler, been on Gloworm website but it is not listed.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Cheers.[/b]

id check the condensate is clear 1st and the electrodes are a common fault on these aswell but without seeing it its just a guess
