...before I call someone out.
I have an old Baxi boiler, I have a care plan with them which has proved useful over the last few years and everytime they come out they mutter about it becoming too old to source parts so i'm expecting to have to replace sooner or later.
A year or so ago they fixed an issue and because the thermostat I had wasn't working properly they gave me a baxi one. which was great!
I wasn't there when the engineer explained the thermostat so i'm working off the principle of the previous one (you tube only reveals a guide in French https://www.bing.com/videos/search?...BF52EAA82BCF197BF544BF52EAA82BCF&&FORM=VRDGAR and I can find no manual)
Basically my issue is that we cannot stop the heating coming on even if its too warm. the only way we can switch it off is turn the boiler to hot water only. (fine in Summer but not useful now)
Can you check my understanding of the thermostat before I call someone out?

- we have set the clock
- we have set the timer to come on for an hour in morning, 4 in evening
- Sun symbol, my understanding is that we set this to a temperature that if exceeded the heating turns off even during programmed period?
- Moon symbol, my understanding is that we set temp to a figure where heating comes on if drops below?
- Winter/snow symbol, i'm really not sure what this does!
- on/off symbol, again confused here, seems to turn thermostat off but boiler happily chugs away?
