D_Hailsham Thanks for your info. I had a look at the pipework and see that it is a bypass pipe which also has a gate vlave connected to it (Which is fully opened). The pump speed is set to 3 for the system. I have tried turning it down in the past to 2 (Due to the vibrating noise it makes)...

Thanks for your response so far. The shut off is a gate valves. I believe that there is only one gate valve. I have been trying to understand how the system works. As pipe work is in the airing cupboard I am not sure that can see it all. What is visible is pipe that comes into pump, feeds...

I have a few questions about balancing a central heating system. The main reason I think that there is a problem is that when both CH and HW is ON, one of the radiators does not get no where near as hot as the others. When HW is off it gets warm, all be it it takes longer than the others and...

You can have Just HW or just CH or both

Just re-read statement 1). Sorry for the confusion. I am saying that currently my CH/HW ON/OFF are controlled on separate switches. However when they are programmed to come on/off at set time, the time is applied to both. So in answer to your question yes I am talking about timing CH and HW...

I currently don't have the EP6002. I was thinking about it, but looking at other options that may do the same job, plus additional functions. I am not totally convinced our room stat works properly, so was thinking about replacing that anyway!

I have a Potterton Suprima, connected to a Potterton EP2002 Programmer (Under boiler in Kitchen) and potterton room stat (Lounge). I am looking for more flexibility in control and after some advice on the best products available. I have the following requirements: 1) Although currently I...

Thanks for all your replies. I was away for the weekend and when I got back on Sunday night the boiler was really miss behaving. It now just cuts out whilst running and locks out. Previously it just locked out with trying to spark up whilst in lock out. Defo need to get someone in soon...

New gas I am located in Wigan

Thanks for all your replies. Looking at parts for the suprima, if any of the items that Nickso mentioned has failed, it will most likely cost around BG fixed price to fix (Although I am no expert). Therefore I am going to get BG in to do a fixed price repair? I have a question though...

I am thinking about having it repaired now based on the comments I have received. The issue in the area we live I don't really know any gas/boiler engineers. I am concerned about BG fixed price incase it is something simple like a sensor and £168 to have a sensor replaced is expensive. Due to...

Thanks for your responses. I was wondering if it could be something else, not just the PCB. The gas engineer does install potterton (he contracts from Barrats + Our house is a Barrat). I found him on the gas safe register and he installed a gas hob for me so was happy with his work. As...

I have a Potterton Suprima 40L (8 yrs old) fitted in my house. It seems to have the well documented intermittent Lock-out problem. The boiler can work perfectly for a week or so and then fail everyday for the week after. Usually after it been running for 10 mins or so the boiler will go into...

ban-all-sheds, is it ok just to use a standard surface socket, screwed in to the brick work once the plaster has been removed. As it is behind the oven, I am not too bothered about what it looks like. Just want to get the moulded plug for gas hob away from the oven by 2/3 cm from its current...
