Great, good to hear it's fixed. If you're that way inclined, why not take it apart and see if you can see what was wrong with it.Hi all, update on my original problem, rather than remove the 3 port valve to see if it was repairable I spent £20 on a new one, fitted it today & it is all working as it should now, no hot flow pipes when CH is off!!!
So a big thanks to all who offered help & advice, very much appreciated & hope it helps someone else in the future if they get this problem.
