Mend Worcester Bosch Highflow 400 Hot Water Boiler

Domestic hot water very hot ?

Worcester bosch high flow 400 - hot water stat on the boiler is sett low but the water from the taps is extremely hot and also dangerous for showering, could it be the thermostat control on the front control panel the problem ??

Thanks for any advice.

The high flow has its own storage of water underneath the burner chamber, unlike a standard wall hung combi. There is a tank overheat sensor in there so unless the boiler is tripping out it won't be that. It's more likely to be your plate to plate secondary heat exchanger which, with older systems, gets coated with 'magnetite', the metallic black gunge you get from dirty systems. This coats the plates & makes them thicker & therefore generates more heat. The same
matter can also coat the domestic hot water sensor on the outlet side therefore giving a false reading. Both can easily be checkedneither job for the novice, get an engineer in! NTC sensor up £20, plate heat exchanger could be up to £130+vat plus labour of course.
Hope this helps.
