That's exactly what I'm thinking jack - also this is why the installer might have suggested fitting a secondry heating ciculation pump - to shove more flow around and possibly force more heat quicker into this troublesome rad - he did say it may not solve it, but if it worked it may mean not...

Yes they do jack - all but this naughty one in my above epic post - al other rads heat up quickly & are very hot to touch (even when TRV is set to 4 out of 6)....so in my opinion this is good right? - but this extra TV room stelrad is sluggish, slow to heat up, never too hot to touch, cooler at...

The old boiler was a gloworm fuelsaver 55f that had been in situ before various extension work/extra rads etc were added to the orginal house design - this fed a range tribune premier 180ltr cylinder on a y plan set-up. In terms of what/who specified the new system, I suppose it could be...

I see what you are driving at....whilst in principle agree with your approach - technically the installers have done everything as specified in the orginal heating quotation & by the book - so because I'm not entirely satisified with the overall heating performance ( and not the result of their...

Ah I see now...manufacturers instructions....I'v read throuh these page by page....can't find anything that says 'do not fit a secondary circulation pump to heating circuit' nor a clear explanation of what is the best suited boiler pump speed for my particular system set-up....nor does it...

Sorry bud....you've lost me here....what's meant by M.I. - in my work jargon that would mean Management Information?

Thanks dangermouse - I've changed the boiler pump setting to (3) meaning always speed 2 I've set the rad dial temp on the boiler to max (75 degrees) Current flow temp is 75 and return is showing as 60....so 15 degree differential. There is no auto bypass fitted other than what's in...

Thanks Mr Hailsham for your reply....I'll answer what I can now until I get home to check the flow & return temps. The pump mode has been changed from factory setting 2 to setting 0 - see below: d.19 Only in ecoTEC plus: Operating modes of the two-speed heating pump 0 = pre ignition...

Hi All, Just had my new heating system installed comprising of: Vaillant Ecotec 630 plus system boiler Vaillant Unistor 210ltr unvented cylinder with 18ltr expansion vessel Vaillant 360f programmer VR65 wiring centre VR10 cylinder probe Magnaclean fitted on return under the boiler...

Surely, given the economic climate of today - there must be someone in my area looking to quote on a decent job this side of xmas? PM me if you are interested in the work

Hi there, I'm seeking professional Nottingham/Derby/Mansfield heating engineers fully skilled in Vaillant products to include unvented cylinder & boiler + heating controls for a system supply & fit job. I'm looking for written quotations to change my current heating system. In essence...

Thank you guys for your valued inputs. Apologies for coming across as scrooge - as this is probably one of the larger expenditures many make (behind house / car / divorce / etc) - I just wanted to sense check that I'd get value for money overall & that the system spec would partially pay for...

Thanks John M - all ur posts raise a smile :) I'm tending to agree with you on this maybe a how much to fit approach may be the preferred option. Don't get me wrong...I'm not a tight@\**......I understand the need for the installer to make a profit, but within deemed reason (which will...

Thanks for that penpusher....seems I may need to be budgeting more than I initially expected - had a figure in mind around the 3.5k mark. If the installers do a full supply & fit, would many be willing to share some of the difference between the installers trade purchase costs versus the...

I'm hoping gas4you might reply - seen his previous posts advocating similar set-ups with the vaillant systems. still hoping someone might be willing to do the job as either supply & fit or fit only & provide me the relative quotes after calling-in for a site survey - just don't seem to be...

Hi all, I've convinced myself to go ahead & with seeking quotes for upgrading my current central heating system (CHS). My current system is a mains pressured unvented type, consisting of a 10+year old Gloworm Complheat fuelsaver 55 (14kw) system boiler located in the ultility room - this...

Thanks for the reply gas4you.... Would I be best just leaving it as it is? - as per above? Also from what you know of my system/boiler & me not having been used to this type of system, what would be a typical average amount of time to reheat the cylinder of HW - at the moment I seem to...

The boiler has an in-built bypass - would this be it? Worse case scenario though - what would be the consequences of just simply leaving it as it is & just turning down the trv's to these two rads so as not to overheat the room in summer? Will it cause any issues being left alone or am I...

Where would this be fiited please? & is it is for a professional to fix?
