Help required Baxi 105he. Boiler is 10 years old and has been a pain for a while now. Ch workes great no issues. Hot water however not so good. I need to turn the tap on quite fast to get the boiler to fire up. Once fired up because the water flow is so high it’s not very warm. I can slowly turn the tap down to get a decent temperature however it’s a fine line. If I slow the flow too far the boiler gets to temperature and cuts out. This is a pain in the shower as the water keeps fluctuating hot and cold
Had a new diaphragm valve fitted last year didn’t fix it and also had a new heat exchanger fitted this also did not fix it .
I understand the pressure switch tells the boiler when you get enough flow the pin
activates a micro switch activating the boiler but why can I not run my tap very slow and the boiler regulate the heat to give a constant temperature. I’m sure when new it worked fine.
is the boiler nod designed to maintain a constant temperature at all flow rate ?
Thanks
