    Hot water and heating at the same time.

    Getting confused now. My actuator (head) appears to be working ok so is it not just the valve body I need? https://www.heatingcontrolsonline.co.uk/motorised-valves-actuators-c-24.html/port-valves-c-24_46.html/acl-drayton-invensys-6793-22mm-3port-valve-body-p-314.html Need to measure if it is 22...

    Hot water and heating at the same time.

    Hi Chris. It is the spindle in the actual valve. Will move with pliers but not convinced I am getting full range of movement.

    Hot water and heating at the same time.

    Hi Guys. Regardless of whether I ask for heating or hot water, both come on together. I suspect the 3 way diverter valve is sticking. I can move it with pliers but not my hand. If I take the motor drive off I appear to be getting all 3 positions. See pictures in order of 1 Heating, 2 heating...

    Intergas boiler?

    Looking at replacing my old Gloworm Ultimate boiler with an Intergas one. Did a search on here and found one recent post asking if they were good but it seemed to quickly degenerate into an argument. So overall are they as good as anything else out there or should I be looking at something else?

    Urgent. No heat as boiler thrown a wobler.

    I don't know what the fault is hence I am asking for advice. Did a Google after posting the question which has suggested the PCB is at fault.

    Urgent. No heat as boiler thrown a wobler.

    Replaced the fan (at the top) last year as it was starting to seize but can easily check it again. Just done a Google on it and looks like it is a relay on the PCB that has failed.

    System boiler or Combi for LPG?

    I hope so. It was a question of trying to get a reasonable quality at an affordable price without breaking the bank.

    System boiler or Combi for LPG?

    Will need to look next time I am through there but I think it is a Glow-worm. It didn't need a kit for lpg conversion. I think the registered gas man said you could adjust the jets or something.
