Hi all.
Firstly some info. 3 bed terraced house. Hard water area.
Biasi m90f 32s gas combi boiler (i know they arent the best) installed oct 2004. 7 rads. honeywell main thermostat (just a turney one with bi-metallic strip) optima trv's on all but hallway (where termostat is) and bathroom. Only alterations to system have been moving bathroom rad about a year ago to new position on adjacent wall approx 3ft away and seemed to have no adverse affect.
Have had most rads off for decorating and to cure leak from where collars screw into rad body. last was about 6weeks ago, but doesnt seem to coincide with my problem which is as follows.
The timer is set to come on for 1.5 hrs at 5am and then from 6pm to 11pm.
When It switches off at 11 and I am in bed, every so often for a couple of hours the pump seems to start itself for a few seconds and then switch off. usually a couple of times in sucession, then a lull of 10 or so minutes and then again. Sometimes the actual burner seems to fire up as well, but not every time. Then after a couple of hours it seems to stop.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Jim.
