3 rads always on ?

[rollercoastertycoon]

Being a 'girl' I'm not that techy , but trying in vain to see if my heating is correct.

I have 3 rads, all either in bathrooms / cloakrooms that are permanantly on even when my heating is switched off.

Is this correct ?

No, that is not right. A Faulty motorised/diverter valve is the usual suspect. A more detailed description of your system would help to give the correct advice. Boiler, controls etc.

Thanks for the reply,

A plumber ( one of many I have used ) came around and changed a little black box thing that he called a ' valve ' and said that it was on backwards?

It still hasnt made any difference.

I have an Ideal Mexico boiler in my kitchen and a Megaflo thing in the upstairs cupboard.

???

That still is no help. Perhaps a pic or two of the tank cupboard?

Could be gravity fed to allow those rooms to dry towels etc when the heating is off but the water is on. Wish mine was setup like that!

What? with a Megaflo?

Maybe not! Didn't see that bit.

Are these rads all upstairs ?
