I am contacting you because I know you need to do something fast. Check your main fuse box for the house and try resetting the circuit breaker which should be labeled as a furnance or heater.

Then if no success look if you have a circuit board for the Solenoids on the water flow. Some of the modern circuit panels will have a small LED light which flashes Codes for normal running and for problems. On that circuit board you should have a small fuse. It will be a short Automotive style fuse of maybe 3 AMPs. The capacity is printed on one of the ends.

If the wire inside the fuse is blown you will need a new fuse so buy a couple to keep. Turn off the Breaker until you replace the fuse and then trip the Breaker and see what happens. You could have had a Solenoid coil fry before the fuse blew. I would then check the Solenoid coils with an Ohmmeter for continuity.

At this point and in need, it will probably be faster for you to get a specific part from an A/C heating company with a Service call. The easy stuff is out of the way and the Heating and Cooling companies have you at a disadvantage. You need to do this quick.

I hope my solution is very helpful to you and that tripping the main breaker was the only problem.

Descaling rancilio

Use Citric Acid.

  1. Dissolve about one tablespoon of citric acid in the water reservoir.
  2. Fill the boiler completely. Open the steam valve and start a hot water cycle until water comes out the steam vent. Stop the hot water cycle, close the vent.
  3. Let the boiler heat up about 5 minutes. Then turn off the power.
  4. Let the acid solution work for about 1/2 hour.
  5. Pull a 30 second shot to change the water in the boiler.
  6. Repeat flushing cycles (steps 3, 4, & 5) until the water looks clear. Refill the reservoir with water and acid as needed.
  7. Wash out the water reservoir.
  8. Pull 5 or shots to get the acidic water out of the boiler. Run a hot water cycle to clean the acidic water out of the steam vent.
  9. Let the unit come to temperature and look for leaks.
  10. Make some coffee and look for leaks.
  11. Froth some milk and look for leaks.

Bosch gwh 425 hno-l

CHECK LIST

- is the BTU'S enough for the space
- is there proper flow through boiler
- should have 20'F-30'F difference between inlet and outlet temp
- is there air in the system
- is there a lock on via controls that is set to lock out under 20'F
- no matter what if boiler is working properly it should be able to maintain 20-30'F temp difference from inlet to outlet
ex. 60'F in, 85'F out = 25'F split boiler is working right, if temps do not rise means house insulation my be so bad BTUS calculated for the coldest conditions was to low

Puma 80 potterton hot water on and off

Boiler compartment ventilation will not stop you getting hot water . Its sounds like you have problems with a sensor or the water section on the boiler .

Sime ecomfort plus 30 HE keeps cutting out and shows a flashing green light. Sometimes it will run ok for a couple of hours before cutting out.

I had the identical problem with the same model. Technician eventually diagnosed faulty fan; the fan cools the heat exchanger. When fan fails, exchanger overheats and boiler automatically shuts down. It is possible to restart the boiler when it cools down but when the heat rises again - off it goes! Only answer is to replace the fan. My technician did the same as yours - on first visit he got the boiler running and left. Half hour later, boiler shut down. I read the installation manual and operating instructions and when he called again I pointed him in direction of fan, which had failed completely. These guys!

Lack of hot water, the boiler fires up you can hear the burner noise increasing and after a few seconds the noise starts to decrease and then then it justs repeats the process seems to be the same with...

Hello
Possible you have a bad hot water control or low water cut off is going bad.Sounds like a control problem,thing is there are 3 or 4 different possibilties.

If this is stopping the gas flow then you need to have the boiler looked at by a service person.

Turn on the boiler and jump out the pressure by putting a wire between the 2 electric connections only after the unit fires up than put the jumper on, if it runs ok it is the pressure switch.
