timer has mind of its own?

[3starcars]

Hi All,

I have moved into a new house and the central heating seems to have a mind of its own. Its an old baxi back boiler style system with the tanks in the loft. Basically the hot water works on timed, constant and off as expected however, the c/h does not work on timed (ok on constant or off), the pump runs constantly even when the water and c/h is off. Also the radiator in our bathroom remains warm when c/h is off but hot water on.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Gas man gaz,

Thanks for your prompt response,
My cylinder is in the loft space, the cylinder and tanks look relativly new. I think that they were installed when a power shower was fitted. This meant that the cylinder was taken from airing cupboard to make the bathroom bigger and put in the loft. It must have been fitted in the last 2~3 ish years. From memory there are two valves and a small box on the side of the cylinder which i think is a stat. There is also a room stat in the hall.

Make any sense?
