Hi,
My Vokera Excell 80SP doesn't do "Summer Mode" - it's always running the heating, as well as the hot water.
I tried a PCB replacement, but the new one I got from ebay didn't work at all. Will take the PCB out again, and check that the mode selector switch is working as it's supposed to (compared to my replacement).
In the mean time, I was wondering if it would be safe to do the following:
Leave the mode selector to "Winter" - i.e. heating ON, and control the boiler action via turning the mains electricity on and off with a timer.
I presume the gas flow is a solenoid which is closed when there's no electricity - but wondered if there could be any knock-on effects - e.g. a sequence to start-up and shut-down, that powering off the electricity when the heating is firing would miss.
Many thanks,
Kenny
