The unit only heats water using the programmed boost and when pressed in the 1 2 or Cont boost function. I have checked the off-peak time which is set to 2.30-7.30 am - this is when the Horstmann should do its thing...? But it's not heating the water so only the top cylinder works on boost, the...
Hi all,
I am replacing my 10.8kW electric shower and I am trying to decide Mira Sport Max air boost and the MIra Decor dual. Ideally, I'd like the one with the best pressure/flow rate. I realise both showers are rated to power, but the Mira sport has this air boost feature - I wondered how...
Hi all, any suggestions, as my Horstmann only works when boost is switch on, even though an electrician has checked it two times! I do believe the settings are correct, any suggestions as to why this might be? Should the 'timed boost' have the black arrow there when the red button is on also...
I am working on putting a victron 24/3000/70 inverter/charger in my sprinter conversion van. Output of inverter is 30 amp pass thru with power assist. Power assist uses the battery pack to boost the 30 amp to up to 50 amps if needed for larger loads. They suggest 50 amp ground fault breaker...

Hi,
We have just moved into a new flat with the old Horstmann electronic 7 timer for our immersion boiler. We just moved from a flat with the exact same system and never had any issues. We have set the timer and the times for the off peak boiling and have had no hot water for 3 days. The boiler...
Hi all,
As an electrically illiterate person I've found a lot of the posts on this forum helpful when fixing things round the house. I was hoping I might get some guidance on any next steps before calling someone in about our immersion heater.
Context: we recently switched to a smartmeter for...
Hi guys & girls I come across this forum whilst searching for help on the solar I boost. I have moved into a new build flat that has this system to heat the water, problem is none of us oldies really know how it works, well I sort of get it but getting conflicting answers, so if anyone could...
Hi there,
In my apartment I have a Horstmann Economy 7 2 hour water heater system, in recent weeks it has stopped working overnight, when I wake up in the morning there is no hot water. I've checked / reset the clock to make sure its set correctly & it does seem to be turning / moving ahead as...
I have a 45kva GE transformer in the pics https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=10218414252692170&set=pcb.10218414261612393 and https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=10218414252972177&set=pcb.10218414261612393 here. Its set up for 480 to 208, i need to wire it for 250v to 208v. When I hook it up to...
Hi all, so I'm having a difficult time sitting this generator out. Genny is fine, two legs of 120 and 240 across. Here's my issue, I'm assuming this buck box is a voltage regulator so as not to fry my inverter/charger but the power coming out of it is 98/140, 240 across. I'm not qualified to go...
I live off grid, have 500w of solar panels laid horizontal on my boats roof, naturally its not producing anything this time of year, my backup 5 kw Diesel generator is waiting for repair, i use a 30 amp digital charger with it but all I have working is a small 400 w petrol generator ( with AVR )...
I'm looking for help on fixing a car lift for a customer. He bought a used lift that calls for 30 amps at 230 volts but his building only has 120/208 voltage. Should he have the motor changed out or should I boost the voltage somehow? And what would I need.
Hi is it possible to get a ceiling booster (wap) that will plug in and boost my own WiFi signal ( same address) as the one I’ve purchased has its own address and is difficult to set up ?
Hi Guys,
I have installed an Airflow BV400 mechanical ventilation heat recovery unit for a builder I do work for. It was installed with the boost function being activated from the no voltage contact. This time I am installing an Airflow Adroit system but he wants it switching from the switched...
Big long house, some of it used for guests. We are looking for the facility to have a 1 hour boost button for the central heating located somewhere in the guest area.
Obviously I am aware of the boost facility available on many programmers. However customer does not want the guests to be able to...

It has been working perfectly for 3.5 years (since I moved in to my place). Suddenly it stopped heating up water at night.
It does not heat water at night even though it seems that the timer works at night. To make...
