I recently bought and fitted a Honeywell DU144 bypass valve to my central heating system.

When I started up the system I found that the valve got hot quite soon which would suggest that a certain amount of water was already passing through it even though I had all my radiators open at the time.

I put my hand on the valve and could feel the water passing through the valve, even when I adjusted it from 2 Bar to 6 Bar it made no difference.

I turned down the pump but it made no difference

Is it normal for this to happen?
 
Its normal to set them to about 0.3 Bar!

Is it correctly fitted?

Is there dirt on the seat?
