Hot Water Takes 3 Minutes To Warm Up

[tali1]

Had a new boiler fitted this year and it has had problem from from the onset.It goes into cycle of warm water , a bit of cold and then a bit of boiling hot and then it turns cold the longest .The whole process of actually getting a constant supply of hot water takes about 3 minutes.However, this does not affect the shower water
Worcester engineers have been twice -including fitting they claim a new pump but the problem is still there.They claimed it might be a tiny leak somewhere in my piping - but if there was, it didn't have that problem with my old boiler

Damn ! this is an awkward prob!

you've paid a fortune for one of the best boilers out there and it's not working correctly? I would really put my foot down and say that you want it sorted out straight away. Can i ask how you paid and who installed it? i can then give you some advice as to who to complain to and what your next steps should be

I have a Worcester boiler, and after the engineer came recently to service it, I noticed the water was taking ages to get warm. This is because he pressed the Eco button so I switched that button off, and now the water gets hot quicker.Don't know if that is any help to you, but just thought I'd mention it.

Barsel ,forgot to mention I have tried the eco button settings -no difference.
Tandh,I belive that Worcester are just ok and not the best out there.Although my cousin who has fitted many says they are.... crap!
