The 4th 'water pressure transducer' in 9 months has just failed. It was fitted 1 week ago! Our gas engineer can't understand why they keep failing. We have a Magnaclean Filter which is always clean and last week he drained the system down. The run off was as clean as tap water. The boiler was fitted in 2013.         
Anyone have any suggestions? Will phone Ideal in the morning.

    logics just aren't very good boilers, Is your engineer sure something isn't leaking into it ?
    What is the fault you keep experiencing ?
    I'm only here while I wait for Corrie to start.

    You get no BS from me & if I think you are wrong I WILL tell you.

    Every time the readout is - low water pressure, 1 fill system, 2 bleed radiators, 3 contact installer.
    Pressure gauge is normal at 1 &1/4 bar and no air in radiators.

    Has the gauge been tested to make sure it's not blocked, what does the gauge do when the boiler is drained ?
    If you are constantly losing pressure & you can't see a leak anywhere I'd be taking off the sump cover & seeing if he see any drips as the main hex are prone to leaking
