    Do you know how to reduce the tem of preheated water which is almost boiling all the time?

    • @HeatingGeek
      @HeatingGeek  4 роки тому

      The preheat water will be the same temperature as your hot water is set to. If it is too hot it might be the fact that you are using your heating at this time of year. The boiler cant lose the heat it creates unless it moves it into your water. Turn the heating flow temperature down and that should help.

    I have a Glow-Worm Flexicom 30sx. Any idea why it stays at 65°C when heating the radiators only? The temperature on the boiler is set at 75°C. It goes to that temperature when heating the water and when heating the water and radiators together but not when heating just the radiators.

    Any idea what "uu" means on the Fault memory (holding mode and - for 5 seconds)? Or just means no error stored?

    • @HeatingGeek
      @HeatingGeek  2 роки тому

      its called a page break. Engineers can add a page break to see if a fault reappears after they have repaired a boiler. So if the last 10 faults are F75 the engineer can add the page break and try and fix the issue. If it returns the fault history would be F75 nnn F75 F75....

    I have a Glow worm flexicon 24CX, the display is the same as the one in your video, and when we use the heating, for some reason the pressure showing in the display keeps going up and up slowly and never decreases. within a week, as we use the heating, the pressure showing in the display goes up to 2.7 bars. I then need to use one of the drain off valves in one of the radiators and drain some water in order to bring the pressure down to 1.0-1.2 bars. What is causing this? I'm monitoring this situation and when using just hot water in any of the taps, it doesn't make the pressure to go up and up like when using the heating.

      @@ruinunes8251 Yeah. They let by. So they are off but still let water through. The vessel you will need a GasSafe engineer to do as it breaks the combustion chamber seal to check and the boiler will need to be safety checked if that happens.
