Well, after thinking the combi boiler was fixed, it has started playing up again. Alpha 240P, around 10 years old. DHW runs for 2 minutes, then cuts out for 20 seconds or so, then restarts, cuts out after a 2 minutes or so etc etc.
New DHW heat exchanger fitted, as this was pointed as the most likely cause of the fault. It did run well for 2 weeks after. Rang Alpha, who seemed to think it could now only be the Primary temp sensor failing, or the primary heat exchanger fouled up.
New sensor fitted this week. No change at all, so it looks like it is the primary heat exchanger.
The sytem had Screwfix own brand cleaner in it for a week, then flushed out. Is it worthwhile putting a good quality cleaner in it (Fernox FS3?), then flushing through again? The best way to flush through - remove both CH pipes from the bottom of the boiler, then attach hosepipes to them, and flush through like that?
Any other thing I should look at?
And if flushing through isnt the thing to cure it, is it going to be worthwhile buying a new heat exchanger, taking out the old one to clean it, or just getting a new boiler?
Thanks Alan.
