We recently carried out a boiler repair in Pinhoe, Exeter, for a customer experiencing no hot water.

After a full diagnostic inspection, we identified a faulty diverter valve. This component is responsible for directing hot water either to your taps or your heating system. When it fails, it can result in no hot water, intermittent performance, or the boiler becoming stuck in one mode.

The diverter valve was replaced, the system was fully tested, and normal operation was restored the same day.

This type of repair is a cost-effective alternative to a full boiler replacement and highlights the importance of accurate fault finding.

Common signs of a faulty diverter valve:

• No hot water but heating still works

• Hot water cutting in and out

• Boiler not switching correctly between heating and taps
