A few months back I had one of these installed

Buy Newlec B Digital 7 Day Eco Timer With Boost Controls - NLTRT7DD

A couple of weeks ago the fuse blew, circuit breaker went to off. No big deal, replaced the fuse. But now it blows every 2 days. I replace the 13A fuse and the same thing happens every time, I get 2 days out of it then it goes in the night. Is the fuse the right size? What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

Any help is appreciated, cheers
 
Ok this is a DIY question but we will keep it in the Central Heating Section due to the nature of the problem. Play nicely with the OP please.
 
Most likely the Immersion heater is failing.

Fuses blow for a reason.
Get the Immersion heater tested.
 
David the guys are right, it is time to call an Electrician in who can find the fault for you, if you can post up your exact location then maybe there is a member who is close to you.
 
Right Guys I have moved this thread from the central heating section to here to see if any members can help the op out.
It is a diy question but I've put it here to see if any members fancy looking at the job he is in E14 London.
 
You can Bugger off I thought of that , you can take the credit for the electricians unite one ha ha
