HELP!! Hot water but no heating

[Pieceofcandy]

Hi all,

So I have a main 30 eco Combi boiler fitted with a salus RT500BC.

So the hot water works fine - ignition light comes on
I’ve bled the radiators
Reset the thermostat and re synced it
Radiator light is on when it should be but the ignition light stays on for about 1 minute before turning off
No heat at all from any radiator

Please help!! I’ve got two children and no man to help!! I’m relying on google and now trying this forum!!

Thanks

Not something you can fix I'm sorry to say .......see if any friends can recommend a decent gas fitter.
Go on the gas safe register type in find an engineer with your postcode a list will come up .....you can look at an image of the gas fitters to see them ........Unfortunately it looks like a rogues gallery .......beware of any that profess honesty and honour ....my experiance of people who profess their integrity is that they're the ones you have to watch !!!!!!! A life lesson. You want a busy bloke not one that can come round instantly ....for obvious reasons ....All the best.

What does the gauge read on the front of the boiler and are both the dials turned fully to the right?

 

[Pieceofcandy]

Yes I’ve turned them right up to the max

What I don’t understand is the fact the water and ignition is perfectly fine but the radiators aren’t?? I thought an ignition was an ignition for both??!!

 

[picasso]

did you look at the gauge ? ignition
It is for both, something is stopping the central heating coming on, did you put new batteries in the stat?

 

[Pieceofcandy]

Sorry where is the gauge?? I’m looking at the dials that control the heat is that right??

Yes I replaced the batteries twice in the thermostat and re synced it
