Both magna clean isolation valves do open...... the pictures shows the top valve closed, when opened water be flows out of the magna clean, the bottom valve is in the open position and actually opened but no water flows out.... I have checked it with the magna cleaned removed ....

Why not using a wet vac once you took the filter of the nuts? You could leave the top one closed bottom one open and and try sucking out. Once water is coming close off and re install the filter.

No pointing upwards, they have been removed and checked to be in the open position...... zzzzzzzzzz sleep time

On an Ideal I thought that they had to be pointing towards you for flow to be achieved?

I was thinking that but I removed the DV motor and manually pushed in the pin fully but still no different....... the customer is not prepared to call out Ideal so we may never know?????

Hmmm seems daft.

Oh well if customer isnt bothered then they will call someone else (if not you) when it gets cold again

True but if someone repairs the boiler then I will never know what was the problem and would have spent a lot of time for nothing ..

 

[Riley]

Shame. Hate a mystery

Will never know the customer got another plumber in who replaced her boiler.... all that work checking valves on magna and boiler all for nothing, it’s not getting paid that’s the pain it’s not knowing what the fault was

Do you not charge for fault finding?

 

[Jacko]

Do you not charge for fault finding?

I do but on this occasion as I was not 100% sure what the fault was I didn’t....... I don’t have a call out charge I have a diagnostic charge. If I don’t the fault there is no charge
