telford tempest

[speleoant]

we have had a telford tempest boiler installed!!
2 years later the darn thing started blowing the heating elements!
we have had them both replaced, and new wiring put in, however it keeps doing this!
not very often but it does it!

we have had the electrician back and the plumber also however they are scratching there heads as to why it keeps blowing/burning out elements

What do you call 'not very often'?

I had one last an hour once.

 

[speleoant]

it takes a couple of months usually from when we get a new element fitted

That is, indeed, not very long.

Perhaps you would be better off in the plumbing section.
I'll ask for it to be moved.

Your issue is with the immersions and not the cylinder being a Telford product.
If you are in a hard water area then you will need a Titanium immersion. That will last longer than an incoloy immersion but costs twice as much.
