Seriously, I do thank everyone for all their comments, constructive or otherwise.... BOOM.............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't wired anything. It's all very confusing isn't it? Do you think you're really offering any kind of constructive advice here? To the novice, it would seem perhaps these forums are stalked by one or two who are simply only interested in generating fear and confusion?

Oh, a little confused still - Am i in some sort of danger here ?

What's a G3 Ticket ?

Oh, yes, they are quite large arn't they! Here's the full beast, but smaller... you are correct and it's a Heatrae Sadia Megaflow. Plummers employed by modern builers installed it all and I did think the other day how I'd ever get at it! If you know anyone in the Horsham (west sussex) area...

I can't really see the one side of it so it may have that number on - not sure sorry. Not only am I no heating engineer, I'm not much of an electrician either and the wiring is not straight forward! Think I best get someone in who knows what they're doing? [/img]

Hi, both are attached to the pipework. The Honeywell has a number stamped on it of 272848. The picture you have is of the other, the Drayton, is exactly the one I have. The problem seems to be very intermittent. The pump was on all last night, as would have been the boiler had I turned the...

Hi, thank you! I'm calm now. Ok, I changed the programmer because I though that might be causing the problem. The old programmer battery had run out and in my ignorance thought it may be related. New and old are both Drayton Lifestyle LP522. The new one is a newer model but Avensys told me...

do you sit and trawl these sites so you can make smart arse comments and generally p1ss everyone off? If you can't be bothered to be civil and assist in a normal human way, go an replumb your MZV you berk!

Sorry, is there something I've not provided? I've changed the programmer. What's an MZV?

It's a Eurostar oil boiler. We've lived here four years and I'm sure it only started happening recently. I'd have noticed the boiler running all the time. The only thing to change recently is a radiator got removed and a new one added. Thanks Dave

Even if the programmer is off for both water and heating, if I turn the boiler stat up until it clicks, the boiler lights. The heating doesn't get hot but I assume it's heating the water. The pump in the airing cupboard is also on all the time, even if I turn the boiler stat all the way down so...
