Hi all,
we've been having a few strange issues with the CH and hot water recently. We have an Ideal ICOS 18 HE condensing boiler coupled with some un-named programmer and room thermostat, we program it to run both CH and water twice a day.
Just recently I noticed that if the CH and water were on at the same time, the programmer randomly turns itself off and on again every few minutes. If you run the CH on it's own it seems fine, but if you run the hot water on it's own then it also trips, but maybe less frequently.
Initially I suspected the programmer as the boiler seems to respond quite normally when the programmer starts up again, but over the last couple of days I've been noticing that the rads are much hotter than normal (with the room thermostat and the boiler thermostat unchanged) and also the HW seems really hot also.
Any ideas whats going on here ?
I'm expecting to get an engineer in to look, but anything I should check first, or likely fault to have inspected is much appreciated ...
Thanks
