Boiler help
Got my boiler serviced and since then it makes like a howling noise..
Like its not quite lighting... everything works fine, heats ok.. Makes me a bit on edge.. the fella did it as a side thing... when he was doing other work.. but I have come back as he was scared his boss would find out... Any thoughts? |
if it doubt get him back mate cant be to carefull id always rather a customer ring me back if they even think theres a problem
is it a fairly modern boiler maybe just the fan vibrating on the case ? try touching ur hand against the front or sides see if it stops (might be hot be careful) |

yes its a combi,probably condensing boiler
what type of boiler is it?, did he remove the fan for a service how long did the service take ? |

20 mins is ok
you mean it has no fan or never took fan out ? lol if bugs can get in so can dust, but thats why you hoover what boiler make is it ? probably just a lose cover screw , call him and ask him to come back if you dont want to look for it wer is the boiler ?kitchen ? bedroom? loft ? |
It didn't have any fans that I could see .. its under the stairs .. the make is Ariston..
Calling him back would be difficult as it was a foreigner and his boss doesn't know .. |
call the boss and tell him there is a problem with the original thing he come out to do
he will probably send the same fella, nobody likes to fix other peoples mistakes |
Was the chap who carried out the service a qualified person to do so or just a 'job on the side' ?
If not qualified then get a proper service engineer in to do the job properly. I wouldn't mess with gas. Cheers Brian |
Its the front cover.. I removed it and the little clips the screws go into have broken off, only one holding it on, started it up and no noise. Where do I get new clips?
Yeah he was fully qualified. |
I cant find these little clips anywhere ... been to 6 different DIY places !!
Any ideas? |
