Hi All,
I'm new here but fairly active in Sparks Forum (@Last Plumber where are you?). I've recently moved and have a Glow Worm Flexicom 18hx. Heating is gravity fed, y plan, external pump, small loft tank for CH and large tank to feed taps and HW. It all works, but not very warm. The boiler seems to run a bit strangely and hence my post here.
I'm used to setting a temp on the boiler, demand from room stat, pump on, burner on, achieve temp, run till demand satisfied or timer off. What I get with this GW is - runs up to set temp (say 80C), burner off, pump still running so temp cycles down to say 40C then burner ignites and we go back to 80C and repeat. So I'm really only getting 60C on average, if that makes any sense. Does that sound normal for this model? Many Thanks !
