Minty!!
Had a new Worcester Bosch 38 CDi fitted today. The installer ran the boiler through it's start up process and ran the boiler at a temperature of 90 degrees for nearly an hour. I was a bit shocked at this and was expecting the central heating system to blow up at any moment as we would normally run the system at around 25 degrees.
After running the system at that temperature for that length of time he then turned down the temperature and announced their is a leak somewhere on the system. All pipework is now concealed making the leak difficult and expensive to find. The system was pressure tested to mains pressure for around four days prior to floors going down.
I am left wondering whether this boiler installer was right to run the system at such a high temperature for so long.
