Hi Can any one tell me why an Ideal Icos HE15 boiler that is 18 months
old,
would suddenly start making a loud and vibrating noise, when the boiler
fires up from a cold start. The noise and vibration last for about 20
seconds and then stops. Would appreciate any help Thanks.



Could be excess fuel at startup making one hell of a fire. Get it checked
out.



Is the boiler oil fired or gas ?

If oil,
Could also be not getting enough oil when starting due to a plugged oil
filter.

Have you changed it since the burner was installed ?

If a new one still gives the same problems, call a serviceman in.

(they should be changed every year anyway)


If it's gas fired, shut it off quick and call the serviceman

No one on usenet can offer you a guaranteed fix without seeing this.
