    Motorised valve or boiler problem?

    Brilliant! This is a really good explanation of what should happen. I've printed it out and am taking it to bed with me for a good read to try and understand it. Thanks. Geoff

    Motorised valve or boiler problem?

    Hi Mandate, Thanks for the reply. When the cylinder stat is turned down or if the HW is off at the timer, the grey wire is in fact 240v. When the cylinder stat is turned up, I still get 100v on the grey wire and 240v in the orange wire. So it seems that the grey wire is getting a voltage...

    Motorised valve or boiler problem?

    I suspect the Danfosss HSA3 Actuator on my 3-way motorised valve, but before replacing it, I'd like to run through the symptoms to see if it might be a problem elsewhere (I had a new Vaillant ecoTEC 428 boiler installed last year, so I want to rule that out first). The problem is the house is...

    Danfoss HSA3 again!

    I suspect my Danfosss HSA3 Actuator, but before replacing it, I'd like to run through the symptoms to see if it might be a problem elsewhere (I had a new boiler installed last year, so I want to rule that out first). The problem is the house is getting too hot. Today, the room stat was off...
