Worchester 24i trouble
The boiler at the van here has started acting up today.....sometimes
when you turn the hot water off the flame stays on and you can hear it boiling the now static water with all sorts of boiling and gurgling and rattling noises......must be the flow sensor not turning the boiler flame off.....The problem is intermittant but a pain to listen to and I am sure it is not doing the boiler any good....any ideas? .....before I get a man in |

It does look that way. I'm not sure how the sensor works, but if a piston or flap or it might be as simple as a piece of crud holding it open. my plan when I found it was to hit it with a hammer for that very reason ....... |
