    Could I remove the link my self. I’m quite handy and doubt I’ll kill myself. I will try change parameter in the morning to see if that works first.

    Hot water/heating issues. Doing my swede in!

    It does run on 5 which I think from memory is hot water. Even when it’s heating the rads it’s 5 and not 6.

    Hot water/heating issues. Doing my swede in!

    Razor - how do I change parameter? You say ignoring time clock but when I turn clock on and turn up room stat boiler fires and all rads heat up. Picasso - I think my hot water valve head is knocked as doesn’t open when called for.

    Yes system boiler. Cylinder upstairs. I can’t figure it out. I’m a site manager and have a bit of knowledge of heating systems but can’t figure this out.

    Hot water/heating issues. Doing my swede in!

    Is the link pre wired as a factory default. Why would it need removing? If wiring issue is causing boiler to fire when not called for why would only one radiator be getting hot. Surely the whole circuit would be?

    Hot water/heating issues. Doing my swede in!

    Let’s see who can figure this out. New Intergas boiler fitted to new position during conversion of attached double garage into kitchen. Prior to new boiler being fitted no hot water so I opened the valve into manual to give me some time to change the head. I had two new radiators in...

    Boiler not firing. Pump constant run.

    Hi all. Quick update. I got up in the loft and my small tank was bone dry. It looks like the cold feed to the tank was turned off because of a dodgy ballcock, it doesn't close fully so over fills. I filled the tank and turned the switch on in the ac again. Boiler fires again and works fine. I...

    Boiler not firing. Pump constant run.

    Right, I turned my heating on and realised that my downstairs radiators were ice cold but my upstairs ones were red hot. I checked my pump in the cylinder cupboard (danfoss pump) to see if it was spinning by removing the large screw cover to see the impeller spinning. It was running fine. I...
