Hi,
I'd really appreciate if someone could explain this to me, just moved into a house with the above boiler.
The boiler itself has a mechanical clock on it where you select times by depressing the segments and a switch to accompany the timer with the options (1, timer, 0).
I don't understand the function of the timer? I thought combis were all on demand based so unless the thermostat in the house calls for the radiators to go on then the boiler doesn't fire up?
The previous owner left certain segments depressed on the clock but left the switch on the 1 - 'continuous on' position. Does this mean the boiler is always working and I'll have a massive bill coming? Its in the garage and I can sometimes hear it when the thermostat is set way low but is that just frost protection kicking in?
If I set the timer switch to zero, then will it just be the thermostat in the house that controls the heating?
I've read the manual but it just explains how to set the clock not actually the function it serves.
Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me can clear this up?
Much appreciated
