I got up this morning and found no hot water and the red fault light on. I can't tell if the green light is on too, as the bulb is very,very dim. But the circuit board green light isn't on (behind the metal front cover). Do you think this is from over-heating? Or any other matter. I am happy to have a go at minor adjustments, but as it is a privately rented property if anything ...

My insurers say I need to turn off all water supplies at the mains.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to which brand and what I should be looking for? I know almost nothing about water storage solutions but would welcome any suggestions.

Recently replaced the boost element as it wasn't working, however the boiler spares merchant i went to didnt have any genuine gledhill element in stock therefore i went for the cheaper alternative (one third the price).

Know have warm water for short period but isnt hot, also replaced the element stat with the original from the old gledhill element as i thought this maybe dodgy, but no difference.

Any ideas?

This boiler has been installed in my house for 7 years with no real problems, and it actually does seem to be working fine heating / water wise.

The hot water supply seems to be OK but the Central Heating is operating intermittently when required. The boiler seems to go off before the system has reached the required temperature. The boiler is also making some strange noises (gurgling/banging) occassionally when in operation.

A question for Mike or anyone that may know relating to my previous long email. I am told by British Gas that they will not powerflush a boilermate 3 central healting system. On your website it states that you can do this. Are BG referring only to their POwerflushTM or all flushing???

My Pulsacoil 2000 makes a boiling noise for the entire night.
Could the thermastat be faulty?

If so how much would I expect to pay for a repair?

Please you recommend any reliable repairers who would cover Loughborough.

Thank you in anticipation of your help.

This has only started happening just recently.
The Heating and Hot Water systems are fine...
