Hi all, i know everyone is probably going to say the usual about this boiler but please let me explain.
ive only been doing gas since this year and trying to get work in my area, a landlord asked me to replace his revenheat with like for like (which he has already purchased) i agreed (reluctantly) but needed the cash and possibility of landlord certs etc
i removed old and replaced with with new everything the same, filled it up turned it on and even just on hw the pressure rises over 2 and then burner stops but no hot pipes anywhere. Auto airvent was open, vented pump (screw driver) it does gargle and bubble so turned to very low and run heating - same thing.. High pressure then burner goes out eventually red light comes on front (overheating i pressume)
i drained down again and refilled it. Same again only when i run the heating and it went high pressure etc there was a bit of hot water go down the return?! It is piped up correctly i checked and double checked. I also took divert head off and checked pin inside wasnt stuck and it wasnt.
im lost... Does anyone know what i could do before ringing ravenheat Monday? I felt like telling this guy to shove it up his f*cking ar*e but i really need the money and i hate being beaten by things.
