you would think they return to hw position so they can deliver hw on demand but some dont .Worcester greenstars do . they have to have a valve excersice program (ie move every 24 hrs) if they do to prevent sticking

What would it matter? You think people who post here are only fit to work on drains, or perhaps only fit to inhabit them. I'd be surprised if you get much help until you show some respect.

sums it up in a nutshell

You dont understand how they work!

They motor to one position when one tag is powered and the motor to the next position when the other tag is powered.

The motor actually only rotates in one direction though!

Most rest in the DHW position when a heating period ends.

Most have the pin in on the motor but thats out on the diverter valve.

But most is not all! Vokera like to be different and anually confuse hundreds of service engineers because some of their flow switches are "out" when there is no flow!

I do you plantpot!!!

You don't say!! Wow! An astute observation!!!

Which most? W-B de-energise to DHW

Which sort of electric 3 way valves? There are several.
The rest of your question is ambiguous.
If you think you understand them all, why not just look in the manuals? They may not tell you explicitly but it's trivial to work out. Most of us don't accumulate statistics, we just work it out and mend the things on the spot.

Work it out for yourself then? Unless you need a spanner monkey to tell you.

I addressed it to boiler servicemen not dopey plumbers.

Well since you think people who post here are dopey plumbers, as you think they are only fit to work on drains, why bother asking the question? Try the gas fitters forum (or aren't you allowed in?).
 
Of course he does not qualify for the Combustion Chamber. He is not CORGI registered and he has never fitted a boiler.

When he says he has installed solar he means he has paid the experts who know how to do installation work.

In any case he is retired!

His original question is, in most cases, demonstrating a lack of understanding of the valves used in most boilers! They dont rest anywhere! Its the controlling PCB which "rests them" !

Who gives a flying Fornication Under Consent of King?????

So long as I can figure out when one isnt working I have no room in my life for such a useless statistic.

When they made a balls up of the 2005 energy efficiency tests You must be the office girl they threw the CE 29 and CE30 leaflets etc at and gave you the instructions to "Make a hundred questions out of that"
