Regarding my issues with the Pulsacoil 2000 boiler reported several days ago, my agent has been in touch. She says that she sent a contractor round to the property today to investigate - I was at work - and "they found that the boiler was working properly and is not faulty", in spite of the header tank getting hot.
Apparently "the boiler is not designed for economy seven; it is a boiler that is designed to permanently top its self up as there is no timer as such", in spite of writing clearly saying on the front of the boiler that it is.
"If the boiler was to ever over heat the error light would come on the front of the boiler and the thermal stats would cut out to ensure that would it not become a safety hazard and would stop it from over heating" - Yet the header tank is not supposed to get hot.
"I would recommend calling your electricity supplier and ensuring that they do not have you on a tariff for economy seven to ensure that you do not receive inflated electricity bills" - really don't understand this. All the info from the internet and printed on the boiler seems to indicate this should be the case.
No reference to hot water running out after 10 minutes.
I don't know where to go from here - perhaps a case of like it or lump it?
