hi
I have recently converted from a warmflow conventional 19yr old oil boiler to an Ideal gas boiler leaving in place the immersion tank.
It has a danfoss 3 way valve feeding A and B and works off a danfoss timer programmer. All was fine until the last few days and the requirement for radiators ie A port. The heating was used at night however no hot water as per timer in the morning. Further examination of the danfoss reveals that the side lever was loose and had no tension therefore unable to move the valve to port B.
When I fully power down the system I can hear the motorised spring in the valve resetting back to hot water port B default and it works!...until the next time CH or Port A is used.
I'm confused, the difference between the oil and gas system is that the gas needs a permanent live, I'm thinking that the Danfoss valve needs to power down also and therefore reset each time??
Any thoughts would be appreciated
