  • Keep an eye on that though. I had pressure issues at one point and went about solving them this way but the issue was the expansion chamber which had failed, eventually the over pressure valve blew and they often don't seal properly after they've blown.

    I'm probably breaking some rules by pointing out that you can test an expansion chamber even if it's integrated in the combi. Sometimes people replace them as it's a plumbing job that doesn't involve gas. Not sure that's allowed though. Integrated ones vary but mine cost approx £130 a couple of years ago.

  • ah great - will keep an eye out and see if it keeps happening more quickly than expected.

    it’s a 6-month old Vaillant, so if it is an issue with parts, then I should be covered by the warranty fortunately

  • That would be early for a failure like that. I have seen failures on Vaillant within the first year but they are pretty good about warranty repairs.
