breakaleg Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Hi, just been away overnight, having recently drained my water tank/heater etc. i refilled, bled the air out, put the water heater on (mains) waited after half an hour, the water was still cold, so i lit the gas as well. half an hour later still cold, so i hit the trip switch, made sure the gas was still alight (it was) turned the heating on (blown air) electric. waited, then it was hot, does anyone have any ideas, what if anything i done wrong or what caused it?. last van had a carver heater. regards. pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Uzzell Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Am I right in thinking it's a Truma Ultrastore B10 water-boiler you are referring to? Logically, if the boiler has water in it and the gas-burner is operating and/or the 230V element is functioning properly, then that water is going to heat up. Only thing I can think of is that you didn't run off enough water when you turned on the tap for the hot water to find it's way through the pipework. Can't see why operating a blown-air system relating to a completely separate Truma 'fire' should have any effect on the boiler. Very mysterious...
