Hi I have a potterton promax he comby boiler. it was fitted when the house was built so is 4 years old.
I noticed that although the heating should have switched itself off my heaters were hotter than they have ever been so i checked the control panel which said heating was off and water was off so i just thought its a glitch and turned the thermostate as low as it would go. Half an hour later i was burning up and heaters still hotter than ever. i went back down to the boiler and although everything said off i could hear the boiler working. so i turned it off at the socket. i left it 30 min then switched it on at the wall again. about 15min later when i went to check heaters were red hot and boiler (when i put my ear to it) was working away. I know im gonna need to call someone in to fix it but if i don't know what im dealing with they could say it was anything. Please could anyone offer some light on this for me.
Many Thanks Lyndsey
