Different opinions from plumbers - who is right?

Bit odd that the gravity no longer works unless the heating is on UNLESS the programmer is not starting the boiler on HW only ???

I said that about 12 hours ago Tony

The OP only visits every 24 hours!

It will still be just as odd in 24 or 48 hours!!!

How is your leg?

Legs Tony

ABout 50% better they were and 50% bigger then they should be.

Painfull in other words but getting better.

I was really asking about the other one which I was pulling!!!

But I am sorry to hear that both legs are so far out of tolerance but if they are better than before then that is a considerable advance! Can you drive?

Automatic Tony so don't need legs, although one comes in handy if you have to stop

I have wasted lots of time on these jobs trying to get them sorted. Judging by the age of the pump and the layout off the pipe work around the hot water cylinder. I would only price for a complete upgrade. New boiler in differant position new hot water cylinder and convert to fully pumped with all new controls. new rad valves and a power flush.

Sorry for my delays on postings - if I could get on here more I would.

To answer the question about the controller, the boiler does start up when the timer asks it to even if the CH is off. When I say off, I mean that the thermostat in the hallway is turned down to 10c, does that make sense?
