My Worcester Greenstar HE Combi boiler blows itself out. What is the fault?
My Worcester Bosch Greenstar HE combi boiler (Model: ZWB 7-27 HE combi) has developed a problem where 30 seconds or so after firing up it blows itself out with a huge bass rumble. It then goes through this process repeatedly until I turn it off. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem? I replaced the fan assembly a couple of years ago when it had the same problem but the fan seems to be working. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

a frozen blocked condensate pipe causes prevents the boiler working. chop off the pipe outside the house and defrost the end with the kettle. solves the problems instantly. don't wait for british gas.

I think it could be a blocked syphon, or pipe from the syphon, worth a check before getting involved with the gas supply

Check the burner inside the combustion chamber it might be damaged

Sounds Like the gas valve is incorrectly adjusted. A check with a Telegan for correct CO2 readings should verify this. I've not experienced this a Worcesters but is very common on Glowworms
