Hi all,
I moved into my current house this year and since moving in the boiler has had a strange issue where I can only have the CH on if the HW is also set to on.
If I set CH to on, the boiler turns on but doesn't "ping" into action until I set HW on too; if I set HW on with CH off the rads warm up anyway. Is this an issue with the boiler or could it be an issue with the programmer? I don't have a room thermostat anywhere, just TRVs on every rad except the hall way one.
Also, if I turn HW on, should the boiler just idle until I turn a hot tap on somewhere?
I have had somebody round to look, but have asked him to give me a price for a service + potential parts, and also a price on a new boiler installed and am waiting for him to get back to me, but I think I'm looking at about 4k and I'd rather get a few more years out of this boiler if it's possible. This was also before I did any research on boilers and so I didn't really have a clue what he was talking about.
Thanks for any help.
