Looking for a smarter way to manage your heating this winter? We’ve been testing the new Aqara Radiator Thermostat W600 to see how quiet, accurate and easy it is to use around the home. Click here read our review.
Glow worm Ultracom sxi has stopped heating the water
- Thread starter terribainbridge

SXI is a system boiler so it must be an motorised valve somewhere on the hot side faulty. I take it's the Ultracom 2 with the tap symbol and you have either a seperate programmer or the small one fitted to the boiler.
With only that information then it would only be guesswork.
You could measure the sensor resistances but unless that indicated any problem I expect you are going to need to call an engineer.
I am assuming that with a tap symbol you really have a combi.

yes it's a combi and it has a separate controller. If I put the water to constant on the controller nothing happens to the control panel on the boiler. and unfortunately I'm still waiting for the electrician to fit the manual switch on the tank.
Ultracom 2 has tap and rad symbol on a system boiler which has a hot water tank. It is also a condensing boiler that is where the confusion may lie.
it wasn't confused when it was working perfectly well last week though - can anyone suggest how to fix it please?
first of all all can you confirm SXI or CXI
SXI is system (heat'ish only) and has a seperate tank!!!
CXI IS the combi,
your above quote is contradictory "yes it is a combi......still waiting on the electrician to connect the tank supply!
My geuess is you have the SXI with a seperate cylinder and the boiler is not at fault here!!!!

sorry - yes its sxi system boiler with separate tank - too used to having combi's!
as above with tony especially if the heating still works then you cannot blame the boiler!!!!
That's what I said on the reply post!!!!!
