I have a Y plan/sundial system, worked fine the last 8yrs.
Suddenly stopped producing CH. (Hot water working fine).
Plumber #1: "You need a new pump, cost you £250 +vat"
Plumber #2: "You need new 3 way control valve; I'd have to charge you £100+vat; but you could do it yourself for £50"
Naturally I chose the DIY route, bought new control head (motor & mechanism), fitted it.
1st day - could'nt get any CH at all (HW still OK)- no change (begining to think was plumber #1 correct?)
Today on return from work, jiggled wires (?me thinking it may be loose connection or something) - 5 mins later CH comes on, stays on for 12mins, then cuts out and dies.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
