Cheers, its a starting point and a cheap fix.

Where abouts is the integral frost protection thermistor located? I can find any reference to this in the installation service manual. They're individual temp sensors for CH / HW and over heat thermistor. Are either of the temp sensors used for frost protection? Thanks again Paul.

Cheers for the response. Both microswitches have been replaced with new. Tested old ones for continuity and they reacted fine. So far I have not noticed any of the diverter pins sticking out after hot water use or when testing central heating activation. Its a strange one, the burner seems...

Further updates: I think I need to be more accurate with the symptoms. I'm starting to think that the fault is related to the HW side of the system but need to recreate the original fault before I can confirm it. Rather than the central heating coming 'on' I'm starting to think the heat...

Nothing.

Thanks for the response.

My house was built about a billion years ago so it doesn't have any vapour protection between the rafters and the tiles. I'm looking to expand the current loft room, which you can see one of the walls in the pic, and hopefully uprgrade the insulation and provide a vapour barrier of some sort...
