hi got the above alpha bolier cant get hot water only when heating is on am sorry in advance i know there not the best lol diverter problem? thanks in advance
 
Yes it does sound like it could be a diverter problem and that would be my first check.
 
Diaphragm and hw flow switch will cure this!
 
hi alpha man sorry never got back early got to change these parts on monday may i ask u if i need any more seals or parts to do this the people have been away just back thanks in advance
 
If you buy a diaphragm repair kit it will come with all the seals needed for the job, if you buy a divertor valve- then you will need to buy a seal kit too!

Hope that helps.
 
hi alpha man many thanks change the above parts all working now ty for help
 
Would a fault diaphragm allow only luke warm water? Do the flow switches normally break down? Just out of interest? Got the exact same problem I'm going to next week. Why wouldn't be the diverter? Cheers
 
Does the boiler fire for hw when the ch is turned off?

Luke warm hw could be either, Blocked DHW heat exchanger or divertor valve letting by, The flow switches are terrible and they are always going down.
 
Hi, customer says they only get hot water when heating is on! Thanks
 
Ok, cheers. Will grab those parts before I go. and let you know if you were right once again!
