Electric Hot Water Cylinder Repair

Elephant And Castle, Greater London, SE1

20th Jun 2026

Issue: Intermittent Hot Water Failure - Heatrae Sadia PremierPlus Unvented Cylinder I have a Heatrae Sadia PremierPlus unvented electric hot water cylinder with an external Aquasystem expansion vessel. The issue is intermittent: * Sometimes there is no hot water at all. * The system occasionally starts working again by itself. * Sometimes I can get it working by turning the electricity off and on or repeatedly using the Boost function. * When it starts working again, it can take several hours before hot water is available. * No obvious leaks are present. * The expansion vessel appears intact, but I am unsure if it is related.

Replace gas valve and ignition electrodes in boiler

£135

Camden Town, Greater London, NW1

18th Jun 2026

You must be a plumber or a heating engineer. Boiler diagnosis completed as follows below and need someone to replace both parts. Parts to be ordered separately and not included in price here. - system pressure was low. I topped up the pressure and reset the boiler; however, the boiler still failed to fire. The appliance was displaying the fault code shown in the photographs provided. I referred to the manufacturer's instructions, which identify this fault as relating to the gas valve. I then contacted the manufacturer directly to confirm, and they advised that the fault is associated with the gas valve and ignition electrodes, with replacement of these components being the recommended course of action. The active fault codes displayed on the front of the boiler provide a clear indication of the fault condition being detected by the appliance, and the manufacturer has confirmed that these codes relate to the gas valve and ignition electrodes.

Brilliant. Will take initiative, show up on time and take a look at anything else needed!
