Was the system changed to have all TRV if so was a bypass
circuit fitted.
Does the overheat LED flash or is a constant on
Try turning the boiler thermostat knob to just a quarter

on,
i.e. water temp lower then about 63c- Hide quoted text -

John - thanks for the reply.


TRV (Thermostatic radiator valves?) - all the new upstairs

radiators
have these. The circuit is off at the moment.


On the old bit of the house, 2 of the twelve rads have TRV.


The overheat light is on constantly. Sometimes the bolier

on light
(next to it) is also on; and sometimes that light flickers.


That doesn't sound good ;(



I will try the boiler thermostat route.


Baxis realty dont like running hot
often the firebox gasket is leaking which trips the overheat
stat.
When was the boiler properly serviced?- Hide quoted text -

Recently - we have an annual service plan with British Gas.

I've rung Baxi and they've offered a service visit - £250 including
parts and labour. Should I take it up?
