Why does my hot water keep cutting out?
Sometimes, air can become stuck in your hot water or central heating system. This trapped air can become a block that will prevent hot water from circulating as it should. Airlocks can prevent hot water from running out of your taps or could stop your radiators from heating up.
Why does the pressure on my Worcester boiler keep dropping?
If you are constantly losing pressure in the heating system you could try the following to establish the cause: Check that there is no water being discharged from the pressure relief valve (sometimes referred to as an overflow). This pipe usually goes from the boiler through to an outside wall and terminates outside.
Why is my boiler still running when thermostat is off?
Your boiler being on when the timer is off can be due to several issues, including malfunctioning thermostats, valve issues, electrical wiring issues, or other glitches. This can result in massive energy consumption and higher utility costs.
Why does my combi boiler run out of hot water?
Your boiler is losing pressure If your boiler has suddenly stopped producing hot water completely, the most likely cause is a drop in pressure. A drop in pressure is usually caused by water leaking out of your system, so if this keeps happening you will need to get a boiler engineer to investigate.
Why is my Worcester boiler making a noise?
Clunking noises- these are often called ‘kettling’ noises, and are caused by an accumulation of calcium carbonate (limescale) on the heat exchanger. This can block the flow of the water, resulting in more steam, which can lead to banging or clunking noises.
Why does my boiler keep turning itself on and off?
If you have a combi boiler and it turns itself off every now and then, it’s probably the boilers ‘pre-heat’ function. This is perfectly normal and doesn’t indicate a fault with your boiler, your boiler is just turning itself on to pre-heat water so that it’s ready on demand when you need it.

Air bubbles trapped in the water of your central heating system expand and collapse, which can cause clicking noises similar to this tapping sound.
Why is my Worcester boiler constantly running?
The pumps on the Greenstar CDi range have a permanent live feed to them. The pump will run constantly to monitor the flow temperature and maintain heat curve. The PCB is faulty and telling the pump to run when it should not be running.
