Looking for someone to service a boiler in NW6 (hampstead, west hampstead, swiss cottage area)

Anyone know anything about Ariston boilers?

It's gas and seems to warm up water for a bit and then throws a different error:

101 (requires manual reset)
104 (requires manual reset)
1p1 (resets itself)
1p1 (resets itself)

Resetting them more than 6 times means you have to fully kill its power and start again.

Water pressure is good. No issue with gas that we know of.

Weirdly it just worked with two showers and kitchen tap running but trying the kitchen tap only, afterwards it threw an SP1 or 5p1 err and self reset. Running shower then kitchen tap then turning off shower while leaving kitchen tap on worked with no errors.

Checked water pressure, perhaps needs toping up?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
