I have bought a central heating protection cover from Southern Electric recently and their engineer came yesterday to have an initial inspection. I mentioned to him that in the summer when I turn off the heating but leave the hot water on, the heating is still on. He said this is because the mid position 3 port valve is faulty. Before the valve is changed they cannot cover us. And he said the whole job would probably cost around £200. He was not able to give a fixed price as it depends on the time it takes to drain the system and fit the new valve.
I wonder whether I should have the valve changed, or just leave it for now cos it is an only minor inconvenince in the summer (I just turned the hot water on for an hour anyway).
