Thank you for this Video. Boiler was off for a week and for some reason went into siphon mode and couldn't figure out how to turn it off

[@plumbertime]

@@davidl2650 it’s a safety feature so make sure you turn it back on

[@daveguyler2284]

I have this continuosly and ive just had a british gas boiler service. Its not getting above 36 deg. Is this a service mode he has left it in possibly?

[@plumbertime]

It should go back to normal after 10-15min

Just out of interest, we have the same boiler at a gym I own. How do you call for heat to the radiator with the thermostat as its nowhere to be seen? Surely you can do it manually by the boiler? Thanks

[@plumbertime]

If you had a thermostat then nothing on the boiler will make it work unless the thermostat is on. Generally boilers rely on getting a live power from controls to fire up.

Hello any suggestions? Boiler doesnt listen to temperature request on thermostat. I want 18 at room and boiler is heating to 22 and more. Why is it?

[@TheIcebon]

Is it a CDI conventional you have? Or a CDI combi?

[@plumbertime]

I think he means his boiler flow temp is reading above 22 which is normal

[@danstribny]

it is combi, and boiler is heating to 56 etc but the temperature in the room goes above 18 which I want, doesnt stop heating when it reach 18 which I entered on the thermostat

[@plumbertime]

@@danstribny does the thermostat turn the boiler off when you turn the thermostat off. Sounds like a dodgy thermostat

[@danstribny]

@@plumbertime no it doesnt

[@nazali5947]

So while its in the siphon mode does the flame go out after little while and does it come back on automatically after its filled

[@plumbertime]

@@nazali5947 it runs in minimum output so it condenses the most. Once the time period is finished it then runs as normal

[@cputilitysolutions]

Top man thanks for this vid

[@plumbertime]

Top man. Love your channel bro. You get some crappy jobs 😂

[@cputilitysolutions]

@@plumbertime nice one man, part of our job eh!

Just wondering what does the syphon fill mode do ? Just turned my worcester greenstar on after changing the batteries in the wireless stat and the syphon mode symbol was flashing... it eventually turned off and the display is now just reading 56

[@plumbertime]

So if the boilers being off for a long time or just turned on and off, the syphon fill kicks in. It runs the boiler on the lowest output for a set amount of time. It does this as on low output it condenses more and over a set time it knows it would of filled the condense trap with condensate and it’s then safe to ramp up and work as usual. Hope that helps

Thanks for this mate but at about 45secs in you say ‘ chimney sweep’ instead of’ siphon fill ‘ cheers though

lol I do make mistakes sometimes as I usually just do one video
