Hi,

We have a combi boiler (worchester) we had water leaking from the bottom of it occassionally - only small drips - so had a whole new diverter value (diagrapm etc replaced) nice and costly. All working fine - except when we turn the taps on full the water turns from hot to cold - if we keep the taps on low the water stays hot (all was working fine before we had the diverter changed) we are being told it's because the old diverter was probably a bit clogged up etc so was letting the water flow through slower - hence it stayed hot - now we have a new diverter the water can flow through much quicker and its just a case that the boiler cant keep up - so recommended not to turn taps on full - does this sound right to people? many thanks
