We live in a rented house and the boiler is a glow worm space saver mkII (and looks almost as old as the house...) which I don't think is a combi boiler. There's a separate immersion tank in ds's room anyway.
Since yesterday the hot tap water will only come out lukewarm. The heating still works fine and radiators get hot. The only change is since the warmer weather (hurrah!) I have switched off the heating save for an hour 5-6pm. Does this mean the water won't have a chance to heat up at all? I can't remember what one needs to do with a non-combi boiler..
There also seems to be an air lock issue or something as the water comes out in gushes - and almost seemed to stop coming out of the hot water tap on the bath this evening (poor ds was filthy enough to need a lukewarm bath).
What's going on? I thought it might be quicker to post on here than wait for the managing agent to get their arses into gear...
