VerifiedHi Rick here UK heating engineer, can you give me the boiler model please, Rick
Then it looks like your plate heat exchanger has scaled up, the best way to sort this is to remove it and immerse it in a de scaling solution, it can be done in the boiler but much more complicated and a pump is needed, Rick
