sir I have a question, this aqua signal ignites the gas boiler but is it a continous signal or just a one time ? the reason i am asking this is , i am doing a project and i have connected a electric heater to heat water but i dont want to run both heaters at same time and want to save my gas money so i figured if i just block this aqua signal , i can stop gas boiler from igniting ! so please if you reply it will be a huge help ! thanks in advance!!

Hi, thanks for asking, All combies have 2 switches 1 for HW and 1 CH which are NO (normal open) dead, until a tap is turned ON. There are only 2 ways to start ignition 1 sensor (Ohms) the PCB see's a change and starts up, or 2 a switch is activated from NO the NC (normally closed) and the boiler starts up until the tap is turned OFF then back to NO shuts down. I don't understand why you want to connect an ELX heater as it's 3 times more expensive than Gas? You can just unplug the aqua sensor from the PCB and enjoy big bills. If you want at add HW cylinder see my video on add 2 zones to a combi or any boiler. hope the helps, George 🤩👍

Hi again, Smart TRVs are very expensive Amazon £274.00 for 5 heads is completely unnecessary because the payback cost will never happen, EVERY rad needs one, just like Air source / Solar and EVs 👍 Smart controls 100% save money balancing TRVs, Heat loss of the home / lounge 60c flow is the way to save money. Why some people spend 1000's to save what? When I added what I paid into my pension I have to be 117 before I make £1.00 profit. I paid for their big building and bonus. Hope the helps, George 😀👍😤

Ignore what is in the boiler has fitted, as I say many times the rules and Codes of Practice and CONTROLS firms demand an external auto by pass on EVERY system.

Hi Dickie, thanks for asking, Hz is not just used as a radio or TV frequency but it's the best way to measure a pump / fan or anything that moves. I found Vaillant publish lots of data in Hz. A pump can be 2K revs but we can't measure revs. but we can in Hz. which is 100% accurate. Most will use Ohms and volts which is OK but Hz is faster and more accurate .

@mrcombiBedford
@mrcombiBedford Ай бұрын
Hi Michael, just going to have lunch, a mid Poz. valve has a gap of about 18mm to the heating side, that only allows 13kw of rads, its recommended only 10kw because the big double K rads at the front of the house will not reach max temp 75C the result will be the boiler stays on much longer and high fuel bills. Remember it's the boiler RETURN stat that switches OFF the boiler. It's better to over size the rads with a LOWER return temp. use my "Heat loss App" and you will amazed at how many rooms have under sized rads 22mm Zone valve can have about 20kw of rads recommended max 18 better to split the system to 2 or more zones to lessen the boiler stress and much cheaper to run. Thanks for asking, Marmite crumpets are go! 🤩👍

Now some boilers can take the preheated water in and top the temp up and others can't. A blend valve to limit the input temperature is suggested on some installations. Now can I feed my boiler from the tank or can I tie into the hot water pipes via a diverter that favours the solar if hot enough. Thanks for any info and thanks for you straightforward presentation.. Best.

Hi George. Just sidetracking slightly but I have a customer who upgraded their Landis & Gyr roomstat to an RF EPH stat but didn't want the old stat removed. The installer set the old stat to max and told them not to use it but use new RF stat. This is correct as far as I'm aware but I think they have been moving stat probably due to habit. So, going to link wires behind stat just wanted to confirm which ones to link out. Thanks

Tinnitus, have had this for fifty years and it is my annoying friend !. Very important you don't focus on it, accept that it is there and get on with life. Mr Combi has given some good suggestions and I use these techniques to keep the tubes clear. The Eustachian tube is normally closed but opens when we swallow, yawn or chew. This allows air to get into the middle ear and any mucus to get out. This keeps the air pressure equal on either side of the eardrum. Having equal air pressure on each side of the eardrum - and the middle ear free of mucus - helps the eardrum to vibrate. This vibration is needed for us to hear properly. My analysis of some forms of. Tinnitus can be the reproduction of a tone which you have had long exposure to including something like a computer fan, for example you hear a constant tone in a space from something, the brain counters that like noise cancelling earphones and turns down the gain for that frequency. When you leave the space the brain no longer hears the tone and but is still cancelling the tone but as it is not there you hear what the brain is producing. Don't Focus on it and do speak with your Doctor about your hearing. Good luck I am taking my friend for a walk..... Good advice Mr Combi

Thanks for this helpful video but in the places (8 mins 35 seconds onwards) where you talk about the blue wire, we can't see the wiring mistake you are referring to in the video and the discussion about the blue wire is not clear. Could you please show the wiring of the old thermostat that has been done incorrectly and the new correct way for a digital thermostat. I have just installed a digital one(Siemens RDH100) and I used only the yellow and red cable because those were used in the old Honeywell I was replacing. The blue wire was already cut off but not sleeved or taped up. I replaced the Honeywell because I was suspicious that it was not turning the heating off in time. So potentially overshooting and strangely it was also not turning on the heating early enough either.

The pressure in the system was too low, and I did notice that. And once, it stopped to work. I added water in the system and increased the pressure, but it still does not heat...

That's one fault found, now you need to check the rest of the list in my last reply. George @@milanmitic5865

I also checked the pump now. I hear that it works (at least I think that was the sound). When I increased the speed of the pump (on the button), I could hear that the speed was changed. I think that pump is ok. Room thermostat is also ok, I checked. What could be next on the checklist? Sorry, I did not understand the abreviations you listed in your message...

Hello there, I have the same set up that you show with the Honeywell thermostat with the wheel and the ST9100C. I want to replace with a smart system, if I choose the Honeywell T6 Wired smart, I need to put the thermostat with the display instead of the one with the wheel and the receiver box instead of the ST9100C module correct? Thank you for your answer.

Hi Stefano, thanks for asking, No the wheel is too old, replace with Drayton RF 902 2 channel about £117 from Toolstation, this will save you money and easy to use Take care, George Staszak, next week I will have a video on changing rubbish Combi controls system to to RF901 single channel, just what you need except one channel. 🤩👍

Dear Fibre, this is true but Tech. Dept. will always quote (and we test) pins 1 to 5 to see if open circuit then no need to test each one. take care George Staszak 🤩👍

Do the same rules apply if you have a diesal oil system boiler with a 14 litre internal expansion vessel using in conjunction with a 300ltr unvented cylinder for both CH & DHW?

Hi Patrick, Thanks for asking, the boiler and cylinder has nothing to do with the EV. It's the total of water in the rads plus pipes. E.G. If the system (rads + pipes) has 50 ltrs. at 1 bar pressure, we know water above 50C WILL expand by around 4% = 52 ltrs. and the pressure WILL go up 1.5 or more, danger! The installer HAS to fit an external 12-16 ltrs vessel to stop the rise, often NOT done and fit a external AUTO by pass also often not done. The result: The pump will make sludge, noisy boiler, often breakdown, short life. It's basic installation requirements as I said too many installers will ignore Codes of Practice because breakdowns make money. Hope that helps, George Staszak. 🤩👍
