£360 quoted is a disgrace! It sounds to me your dhw diaphram has possibly split. supply and fit should be no more than £100 max, 30mins job. whole new divertor valve very unlikely to be needed.trust me Iam an approved ariston engineer!

oh and by the way, the diverter valve is only about £100 to buy and about 2 hours labour!! wish i was on £125 an hour!!!

i was told the same for my boiler!! what with me being a tight *rs* i got a diaphram from ebay for it and fitted it. easy enough to do too... and it worked..
yes the professionals know what there doing and i dont want to take work away from them but spending £10 on ebay might save you £350!!. if it doesnt work then uve only lost a tenner eh??
then you call the men in the know!!

if you want to replace the water section yourself then do it, if however you want to pay a professional to do it who has had years of expierience and no doubt spent a fortune on training etc and also has a business to run then pay him, but dont come on here complaining about a quote which seems fair to me. after all im sure we wouldent question your profession....would we ? and by the way it is good practice to replace the whole thing this cures any future faults with other parts of the unit.
