No Hot Water

wendy_ann1983

For some bizarre reason I have only just thought of asking about this on this forum, anyway.

I woke up this morning to find we have no hot water, nothing comes out of the tap at all, cold is fine all other flats are fine. checked the manual can't find anything other than the pressure is a little low so I fixed that, but still no water comes out. Rang landlord but couldnt get through so rang through to company that made the boiler and spoke to technical team, they said it could be soemthing to do with a circuit thingy and i would need an enginneer, finally got hold of landlord and he has coverage for this sort of thing so he rang to get someone out but apparently no one can come till sometime monday.

AGGGGHHHHHH, sorry that was me washing my hair in freezing cold water so I can go to work tomorrow.

Any ideas of things I can try before someone finally turns up monday night (if we're lucky)

Its a Potterton Powermax HE Condensing boiler with integrated hot water storage and is less than 6 months old.

How many kettles would i have to boil to fill the bath?? (JOKING, that wouldnt be very mse would it.

Thanks in advance

well for the second time this month i have no hot water, its been gone for over 8hrs now and im REALLY P*SS&D OFF. I did what i did last time to try and get it working and nothing. Cant get hold of landlord to get the plumber round, he came last time (the plumber not he landlord) and said there was nothing wrong with it, it was just to do with because were in a flat sometimes the pressure drops blah blah blah blah blah, well there is no way that we should still have nothing coming out of hot tap for this long. Cold comes out fine, i gotta go drs 2mo and i would like to have a shower but it looks like its a boiled kettle and flannel job.
AGGGHHHHHHHH sorry for ranting and shouting, im just so stressed, i really thought this flat would be different, every other one weve had has had problems but htis place just felt right. But nope, weve managed to get a place where the hot water likes to go on strike.

if any one has any ideas i would be most grateful, like i said in the 1st post its a
