New cylinder, New pump. NO HOT WATER. HELP

[wright1]

I had a leak in my hot water cylinder, i called the insurance, they said id have to replace the cylinder and they would do the rest. I replaced the cylinder and stopped the leak but there was no hot water, the radiators worked but no hot water!
I brought a pump thinking the reason the hot water wasn't reaching the taps was due to a broken pump. Iv fitted the pump. STILL NO HOT WATER.

Its costing me no end on parts and i have insurance people waiting to come and decorate!

any help would be brilliant!

Probably a goosed hw zone valve, if u know what ur doing just test it for voltages.

Timer on for hw, voltages should be....

240v on brown
240v on grey
240v on orange

If no voltage On orange the either the synchron motor is goosed or the valve head needs changing. Hope that helps

Some details of your system and configuration would be helpful. Plus, which pump? circulator or what?

no water or the waterr isnt getting hot?

Could be a locked coil. Do you have air vents on the pipework?

Do you mean you have no hot water or no water coming out hot taps????

 

[macplumb]

That's a good question I shouldn't just assume

do you have water coming out of any hot tap? if not your gate valve might be at faultregards turnpin

Sonds like either the spindle on gate valve goosed or just a simple airlock

If you don't have water coming out of thr hot taps at all could be either broken gate valve (replace it with a full bore lever valve), or possible airlock.

If you think it's an airlock, attach a hose to the draw off cock at the bottom of the cold inlet of the cylinder and try and see if you get a good flow of water out. If you don't, the problem is between the tank and the cylinder. If you do, then the problem is between the cylinder and the taps.
