Hi All,
I have recently had a new smart thermostat fitted but since then I'm having an issue with my separate heating zones.
When the upstairs thermostat calls for heat, only the upstairs radiators come on as they should.
But when the downstairs thermostat calls for heat, both the downstairs and the upstairs radiators come on. The one note I will add to this though is that, when this happens, the upstairs radiators don't seem to get as hot as they would as if they were turned on properly by the upstairs thermostat... they just get very, very warm. It's a little odd and I am not sure of the relevance of this.
I have a system boiler with three zone valves: one for upstairs heat, one for downstairs heat and one for the hot water tank. All of the wiring runs through a central wiring box which obviously links the boiler with the relevant thermostats and zone valves. The electrician has returned and confirmed that the issue isn't with the wiring.
Part of me wonders if the upstairs zone valve is faulty but then, that would be a coincidence since the issue only seemed to start after the installation of the smart thermostats.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
