How can I get some assistance with this boiler chaps? I've read about the not handing out of gas advice on the public part of the forum and have pm'd gas man but not yet got an answer? Oh and how do you get the GS Registered tab below your avatar? Many thanks in advance :biker:
I've had this problem for over a year and am struggling to solve it. I've had 2 plumbers look at it and also had the boiler serviced and yet the problem persists.
When there is a demand for CH and HW my boiler operates as it should, fires up and gets up to the set operating temperature and...

My 2 year old Worcester Greenstar24 Ri has the following symptoms.
- central heating off and no demand for hot water.
- regular cycling at about 10 minute intervals
- loud gurgling noises during the cycle
- infrequent clanking pipe noises like a door slamming.
The sequence from start is...
Weird one this, above boiler, comes on and stays on. Once it starts to get warm, it goes off, then a couple of seconds later, fires up again. Then after about 15 seconds, it goes off and starts again. No flame failure light. Boiler gets up to temperature.
I've checked the NTC, which is only a...
Hi all, I am working on a Glowworm Betacom 24. The problem it has is when the radiators are hot the boiler will shut down and relight continuesly, on off on off. Hot water is firing fine and stays alight untill the focet is closed. Central heating therminster is working fine, heat exchange is...
Took alook at a Ferroli Modena 102 which kept cycling. Both sensors were around 15k (ohms) after some use so expected them to be lower. I also discovered that on both heat and DHW there was no modulation. Got the sensors and replaced but [no] surprise same issue. I can't decide on whether it's...
Hi All,great forum ,hope you can help?
I have an old camray compact 50/70 oil boiler, with a rdl g2-sx burner.
It has been serviced every 2 years by the same guy.
The time for the service seemed to be short so I did some investigating myself.
I removed the burner and hacked off 1/4 inch of...

Hi is it possible that water in my oil tank is causing the system to short cycle? Plumber says that's the only thing it could be after troubleshooting.
Thanks
I've ended up with this job and a little bit stuck at the moment. I'm hoping one of you guys can help.
It's a suprima 40, the heating now works fine after new rad valves and a balance of the system.
The hot water is where I'm stuck, the boiler cycles on and off for well over an hour until the...
Went to Ecomax 824e today which was peeing water out the blow off. The filling loop had been cracked open by customer to compensate for pressure loss so I switched the filling loop off. The boiler had been out of use and electrically isolated at the fused spur by the customer. I checked the pv...
I wonder if anyone can offer a third opinion on this problem.
I have a Worcester 14/19 cbi boiler set-up and all was fine until recently I had solar water heating fitted (new larger cylinder plus extra coil - otherwise more or less as it was). Ever since then the boiler keeps short cycling...
I'm not a heating engineer, but I have the feeling that my boiler could be oversized for the amount it is being used and therefore cycling too much as a result -- I would appreciate anyone jumping in to confirm or deny my assumption, plus ideas on how to possibly improve the situation:

Hi all,
Please be gentle, my first post.
OK. I had a vaillant 624 System boiler fitted by a Gafe Safe engineer, who wanted me to fit a Worcestor Bosch combi, because he has NO knowledge of the Vaillant.
I did lots of research and the current 5 year warranty made my decission for me. However...

Hi
I have a Baxi condendsing boiler (5 years old) - recently I had to get the sundial Y-valve next to the hot water tank replaced as it had failed (and fused in the timing control panel).
At some point, my plumber must have changed the settings on the Baxi boiler, as now it cycles and heats HW...
