I have a potterton puma 80, The hot water works fine although the central heating takes quite a while to heat up. I have flushed out and removed any dirt from the system. I have been told by a friend that it could be the diverter valve, Does anyone have any other ideas?

Central heating barely getting hot.

It probably is the diverter valve but the real cause may be a dripping hot water tap !!!
You can check that by turning off the cold water in and seeing if that makes any diffference to the heating.
Note it takes about 5-10 minutes for the heating to restart after using hot water!
